The WMI Credential for the Default Connection Profile had an expiration date set which had already passed.
Resolution
First, in the Symantec Management Console, navigate to Settings > All Settings > Monitoring and Alerting > Credential Settings > Credentials Management. Highlight the WMI Credential for the Default Connection Profile credential and click the pencil icon in the grey menu bar above. Either change the Expiration date to a date in the future or uncheck the check box for Expiration date as desired:
Then, while logged into the Notification Server using the Application Identity Account, open the Symantec Installation Manager (SIM) and click the Repair installed products link. In the next screen, click Reconfigure installed products so that it is bolded, and then click the Next button. Check the box for Symantec Management Platform 8.7.2 and click Next. On the next screen click the Configure button. When completed verify on the main SIM page that no products show as unconfigured.
