Microsoft.IntelligencePacks.OfflineUpdate 7.0.9820.0

$

0

I wanted to see if anyone else has seen a spike in CPU and Network on their systems as it seems Insight/Advisor has updated some mp's which caused a number of my gateways to fall over and trigger heartbeat/host down alerts.  

We have all of our agents ~3000 disabled for use with Insight and still wonder why their updates seem to cause harm to the SCOM environment when not in use.  I'm referring to this previous issue which also affected our environment among others.  

The problems seemed to have subsided in our environment and logs on the gateways show that MANY cab files referencing the OfflineUpdate mp as being successfully transferred.  

Can any moderators from Microsoft comment on this and is there a way to prevent this from occurring or perhaps a heads up on when these updates are coming out since they're automatically pushed out?  We are very close to ripping out our registration from Insight (try to disable it's functionality altogether), from our prod environment due to all the issues it has caused.

SCOM 2012 R2 UR4 Web Console Dashboard Widget: Object by Performance "top N"

$
0
0

Hello,

I'm running SCOM 2012 R2 UR4 on Server 2008 R2 latest updates, SQL Server 2008 R2 SP3.

I am creating multiple dashboards including a "Objects by Performance Widget". This displays perfectly in the Full OpsMgr Console, although it takes 10-20 second to render. But in the Web Console I get nothing displayed, no error either, other dashboards are working fine. Any suggestions?

I've tried amending the web.config IIS file on the Web Console Server to increase the returned rows, although I don't believe the returned rows exceed this:

<add key= "LimitMaxViewRows" Value="500" />

I've tried this: http://blogs.catapultsystems.com/cfuller/archive/2013/12/09/fixing-the-objects-by-performance-widget-when-using-the-all-performance-instances-scom-sysctr.aspx?id=626&list=52b49438-d7a8-4f25-91ea-392a6e92c57f&itemid=626

....but the Stored Procedure seems to have changed and this doesn't apply as I can find "PRI.InstanceName".

Any help much appreciated?

In the full fat console the see the view waiting for the data and they then populate (10-20 secs). In the Web Console the views are trying to display for approximately 5 secs before they stop/time out. No errors found in IIS Logs, it this STILL a SQL store procedure issue?

Thanks Chris

On one of our SQL Cluster servers we are continually getting the following error.

I've tried to put our cluster instances into a group and then do an override for the offending rule to disable it, however I can't find what rule it is.


Any help appreciated - it's flooding our ops manager logs.

Hi Team,

We have two identical servers Server1 & Server2. Their is a specific service which is available on both servers but running on Server1 and stopped on Server2.

The task is to start the service on Server2 when Server1 service is down.

We have created a Recovery task to start the service on the Server1 to remotely start the service on Server2.

Full Path to file: %windir%\system32\sc.exe

Parameters: \\Server 2 start AgentServer

when we stopped the service on Server 1 the recovery task executed successfully and the output is below



when we tried the same command by logging in to the server and opened the command prompt (not Run as Administrator) it worked fine.

how to resolve this permissions issue.

we are using SCOM 2012 SP1

scom - web console limitations?

$
0
0

Hi All,

We allow access to the scom console for our support teams via the web console.

When support teams access their dashboards, they are restricted and are unable to view "alert properties" when right clicking their alerts, is there a way to enable this? or would it be listed under the tasks pane, we would also like to give them access to the health explorer option as well, thanks.

Also, likely should raise another question for this one... if we allowed support to install the ops console on their machines, is their a limitation as to how many can connect to management server? I thought i read some where that we could have serious diskspace issues on our mangement servers if we allowed this.

Regards,

Starting yesterday this showed up in the Authoring role when looking at Monitors, Overrides and Rules where they was no SCOPE selected. I found several posts that had this same ID and information for SCOM 2012 UR2 and UR3 (pre SP1). I followed the suggestions in those posts about searching SQL for the ID in the ManagedType table to return the TypeName, the query returned nothing. Anyone got any ideas on this?

Java APM

We could monitor TOMCAT now, but many customer still use JBOSS, websphere, weblogic, and they need APM to identify the root cause of applications.

Do we have any roadmap for Java APM for these servers? or any other 3rd party MP could achieve Java APM?

Followed all the instructions in both of the article below.  I know it is at least partially working because when I typed in the wrong addresses (on accident in both the channel setup and the subscription setup) SCOM generated an alert saying that the address was incorrect and it couldn’t complete the request when an alert was generated.  But now the only thing that happens is the errors below.

Logical Disk monitoring - Overrides galore?

$
0
0

Hi all!

We have a number of systems with differing needs for storage thresholds.  The defaults work the majority of time, but there are a number of 'buckets' our disks need.  For example, some disks might warrant an error at 5GB free, 10GB free, or even 25GB free.  Let's pretend the percentages aren't important for now.

Just to be clear, is it correct that I would need to create 2 (system / non-system) * 3 (2003, 2008, 2012) = 6 overrides for every single bucket I want (and make no mistake, we need way more than 3)?

This seems absurd.  I can handle dumping the appropriate logical disks into buckets based on PowerShell or some other programmatic method.  Creating overrides seems a bit more complicated.  Is there not a simpler way to do this?

I'm comfortable using PowerShell, but the 600 line example above seems like a pretty steep requirement for a very basic and common task (that is cumbersome and delay ridden when using the SCOM console).

Please tell me there is an easier way to create overrides for logical disk space monitoring!

Hi

we have just set up a production SCOM 2012 R2 using the configuration of our POC system

using the SCOM 2012 r2 console

Within our POC environment the reports are showing up on the reporting tab

with our production environment they are not showing

the forest domain is the same for both environments, but they are on different child domains, but the logins are taken from a diffent domain. (this is the same for both) with the same amount of hops to get to the account AD.

if the login for the console is a forest account then the reports are showing on the production environment but like i said they arent if loging on using the other account, but this doesnt happen in the POC environment.

All of the services are running correctly as when logged in with a forest account the reports are showing up.

can you help?

RRAS MP - Setting up groups containing RRAS components

$

Hi,

Having just been asked to import the RRAS MP into SCOM 2012R2, I am trying to work out what objects/components I can include in a new Group to make sure I have captured all the RRAS related objects.

So far I can see that there are:

Remote Access Server

Remote Access Server Seed (whatever that is)

Remote Access Site

which are (what seem to me) to be the only new components showing up under Class when searching for new Dynamic Members to put in a Group. The same seem to be showing forExplicit Members in Add/Remove Objects.

Apart from Windows O/S and Disk, are there any other Classes or components that belong to this MP that I am missing?

Thx,

John Bradshaw


SNMP Trap Issue

$

0

Hello,

I am running SCOM 2012 R2 UR4.  I am trying to setup alerts from my HP Procurve switches so they can send me critical SNMP traps.  So far, I have 6 switches configured to send my MS traps.  My issue is that I get bombarded with e-mails from the switches and the information in the e-mail is just a number.  Not only that, the issues are not critical, they are informational.

This is the entire e-mail:

Alert: Procurve Alerts

Source: X.X.X.X

Event Description:

6

2

4

This is what the logs on the switch show for the same time:

I 03/12/15 15:10:05 00076 ports: port 6 is now on-line
I 03/12/15 15:10:03 00435 ports: port 6 is Blocked by STP
I 03/12/15 15:10:00 00077 ports: port 6 is now off-line

I was told by HP to update the firmware on my switches, so I did. But I'm still getting these e-mails. He also said the MIB's may need to be update on the MS, which they cannot.  I configured SNMP monitoring based on the "SCOM 2012-SNMP Traps, How the Heck Do I Get it working?" article.  Any help would be appreciated.

Afternoon,

We are getting errors in SCOM for a lot of our Servers at the moment with the following Critical error named 'Antimalware Engine Malfunction'

'The antimalware service is not running, or the antimalware engine is corrupted. To restart, the service, run the recovery task in Health Explorer.'

This is a server running SCEP Client Version 4.2.223.1.

I have updated the definitions to the latest version but we are still receiving the same error. If I restart the service then SCEP will work for a short period of time before failing again. The server will start a quick scan and then fail half way through. This is generally on some temporary internet files.

I'm not sure what is happening at the moment I am hoping that someone can assist. Thanks.

How to Reduce the IOPS on the SCOM 2012 DB & DB DW servers

Hi,

We have SCOM 2012 with 2 monitored Management Servers, 2 Network Devices Management servers, 1 DB & 1 DW DB servers, 1 Reporting Server. The similar setup is in another data center (total 14 servers).

Recently we had experienced high IOPS usage on SCOM DW DB server and bit high on SCOM DB server also. This is due to portal monitoring. When we verified from SCOM and DB side, we did not find any abnormal issues or errors from the DB & DW DB server logs. Where else we can check for the IOPS high utilization caused

How to reduce the IOPS high utilization and also what precautions need to be taken, not to recur in future.?

Can we monitor the IOPS in SCOM 2012 for a threshold of 20ms?

Please help me out.

Thanks,

Naren.


Thanks & regards, Naren.
