Andreas Zuckerhut RE: Re: Working with Groups very slow
Well basically what I do is that I have a rule running on the RMS that gets all servers and a serverrole property. And then I discovers the relationship between the group and the computer objects accordingly. You could do the same thing though by creating a relationship discovery that runs on the agents themselves. This should get you started: http://blogs.technet.com/b/mpauthor/archive/2010/09/23/taking-the-mystery-out-of-discoveries.aspx - what you basically need is the Script discovery for containment relationship
Andreas Zuckerhut RE: Re: OpsMgr 2012 RTM - Agent crashes anybody?
Erm... maybe I got your statement wrong but let me get this straight:  - There is a bug with a certain feature  - You don't use that feature  - Problem is fixed
Andreas Zuckerhut RE: Re: OpsMgr 2012 RTM - Agent crashes anybody?
A little update on this:  - I removed all 3rd Party Management Packs  - No Crashes  - Created a Repro MP using several PowerShell modules  - Crashes again  - Removed the Repro MP  - No Crashes Still Microsoft can't get any crashes with the Repro MP it seems. Attached the Repro MP. It uses PowerShellDiscoveryProbe PowerShellPropertyBagProbe and a PowerShellWriteAction What it basically does: It discovers dummy-class instances, runs a dummy-check against that class and it writes some events to the Operations Manager log for debugging. Only use it in your LAB environment!

This blog post is to be considered an experience report, and not an official guideline. Intro This is just a little update on where I’m at right now with my 2012 Installation. Once RTM was released on April 2nd I upgraded the environment, prepared a blog...

For Notifications you can use Groups from unsealed Management Packs as they target Group Ids, not the Management Pack Element of it.

There are 2 kinds of taks: Agent Tasks and Console Tasks. Agent Tasks launch something remotely on the machine, Console Tasks run something "locally". In your case you'd need a Console Task and they don't support RunAs accounts, they will always be launch...

Ah, so that's how you do it: monitoringObject.IsAvailable Never noticed that property before, thanks for the info, might come in handy some day.

Collecting performance of all instances works just fine, for monitors it doesn't - no change there in 2012. As for the monitor I guess we are talking about custom web applications? In case they are built in-house I recommend finding another way to identif...

Well I can't say that learning MP Authoring was easy, but once you got your head around it it's kinda like a scheduled task in 2008... on steroids... attached to a rocket ship, crashing into an aircraft carrier, and the aircraft carrier is on fire. ;) Bri...

Nah, the script monitors in the Operations Console only work for vbscript, the code above is PowerShell. For creating PowerShell monitors I recommend studying Brian Wren's tutorials - http://blogs.technet.com/b/mpauthor/

Not out of the box, you have to write a script for that. We are doing this with using w32tm, extracting the time difference from the output string, and then comparing it against a threshold. $Server = "NameOfDC" [string]$TimeCheck = w32tm /stripchart /com...

Well SQL Server 2012 wasn't available during development, thus it's understandable that it is not supported yet.

What you could basically do is using one of various websites that provide a check on whether or not your mailserver is blacklisted - such as this one: http://www.mxtoolbox.com/blacklists.aspx Then create a script that verifies you are/not blacklisted and...

Management Servers don't have an Agent component installed therefore you don't see that of course.

That's not a fix at all, besides that the crashes aren't directly related to 3rd Party Management Packs or a specific module. I was able to create crashes with PowerShellPropertyBagProbes but I can't really reproduce the crashes with them which is the big...

Hmm, does it by any chance show the servers hosted by the ESX boxes? I get a feeling that they created an "ESX hosts Windows" Computer relationship so you get the Windows Servers that are hosted by the ESX machines as well.
