Is creating a group the appropriate way to limit your monitoring to specific servers? yes, your disabled monitor will be targeted to a class (like windows computer or windows server) and using an override for a group you enable this monitor. never tar

Not an official guideline but personal experience: always use fixed size disks if possible. I started with dynamic disks but switched to fixed size disk and the performance gain was noteable, especially for the not so beefy servers someone has in the base

Just tried that, still no luck. Same as before. Looks like I will reinstall this box tonight with W2K8 R2 and keep my fingers crossed that this "glitch" is gone after that...

Hi Kevin, even if the agent would expose direct access to it's queue, it wouldn't be available if the agent is down. The agent maintains a local edb-like database so there's no way to access this directly (with or without the agent). Tenchuu is right an

Thanks for your response, much appreciated! Guests are not on a private virtual network? Host has one NIC (had two before but I had to disable one). I have one virtual network configured external and bound to the physical NIC. All guests and the host

Hopefully someone here can help me. I am having a very strange issue with one of my hyper-v hosts. I have two hyper-v hosts, both are configured identically. On one I can access host shares from any guest, on the other not. The shares are working an

Your screenshot shows you are using the operations console. To create a secure reference and to change the run as profile for your monitor you need to install and use the authoring console. The setup should be on your R2 disk, the directory on the disk

To create a secure reference, open the management pack in the authoring console, go to the health model space to create a new secure reference. When the secure reference is in your management pack go to the monitor, in the configuration tab you'll see you

I think you are working towards discovering a custom application based on a registry key instead of monitoring something in the registry. Have a look at this page: http://www.systemcentercentral.com/BlogDetails/tabid/143/IndexID/19269/Default.aspx Y

I assume your default action account is Local System who is not allowed to leave the machine and go across the network. You need to either change the default action account to a domain user with the appropriate privileges on the local mahine and the rem

Always happy to help! Compiling C# code in PowerShell on the fly is just cool but not really necessary. We once had a situation where we needed to implement an async. callback which is not supported in PowerShell, hence the compile-on-the-fly stuff.

I often use subgroups to workaround the limitation that for overrides the groups need to be in the same MP as the rule/monitor you want to override. If that's not the case, you create a group in the MP where the rule/monitor is in, assign your other group

You have 2 options as far as I know. First one is you utilize the SDK in your powershell script to determine the health state of your target instance before you proceed collecting the performance data. Number two, you create a recovery tasks when yo

You could do it with a console task. I am thinking of a powershell command which is executed as a task where the alert id is passed on. The script gathers all alert properties of interest, compiles an email and sends it to the sharepoint mailbox. The on

Here's a snippet of the link I posted before: With cookdown, the agent still runs a separate workflow for each instance of the target class. However, it loads only a single instance of the data source sharing the output with the different workflows. The p

I see. First of all, if you use OpsMgr 2007 R2, using PowerShell will take less resources and will be the better option as VBScript. Secondly, I think your best option is "cookdown". Cookdown enables you to work with a single data source in multiple work
