Hi
Can anyone provide any resources on how to determine the bandwidth usage of Windows and Network SCOM Agents. I know this is a difficult question!
Obviously the SCOM Agents send monitoring data to the SCOM Management Server but does the MS also send lots of data back to the Agent installed on a device?
Thanks
I just built a new management server with SCOM 2012 R2. The contents of the path (C:\Program Files\Microsoft System Center 2012 R2\Operations Manager\Server\AgentManagement\UnixAgents\DownloadedKits) to the Linux agent code on the management server is filled with scx-1.5.0-128.rhel.6.x86.rpm and the like (scx-1.5.0-128*). After I applied UR5 (Update Rollup 5 for Microsoft System Center 2012 R2 - Operations Manager Server (KB3023138)) to the management server, the contents of the Linux agent directory is unchanged. I believe that the rpm for those agents comes from that path.
I even tried to install the (System Center 2012 R2 Management Packs for UNIX and Linux.msi) on the management server. This had no effect on the directory with the rpm files, still the same ones from the base SCOM 2012 R2 install. It did create a directory containing the mp and mpb files for the Linux management packs.
How can I get the UR5 rpms out of the UR5?

Hi Team,
Could please help me with a solution develop our own “pre-connector” service using PowerShell.
Windows Server 2008 R2, SP1
Domain Controller
SCOM 2012 R2, fully patched
On this one server, all WSH scripts run by the monitoring agent (vbs, js, etc.) fail with event 21405. They all return the same process exit code 3221225794, which is Application Failed to Initialize. WSH scripts run correctly interactively.
I have scoured the forums and tried the most common fixes, like bad file associations, etc.
Upon investigation, I found something curious. If I run CSCRIPT my domain admin account, it will work. But, if I use psexec -s to run it as the SYSTEM account, it will exit and return no output. To make sure this wasn't an artifact of psexec, I did the same thing on another domain controller and the script ran fine. To be clear, I cannot get CSCRIPT to even show its splash screen or version number when running as system. It's not just that it won't run scripts, it doesn't seem to be running at all. I think this is where my problem is, but I've exhausted everything I can think of and can't figure out why system can't run CSCRIPT. My guess is something in the system account's user profile, but what?
Example failing script. Note, there are thousands of these errors every few minutes. It's not worth posting more than one. The only difference is the script name.
The process started at 6:58:33 PM failed to create System.Discovery.Data, no errors detected in the output. The process exited with 3221225794

Hi,
Want to know how to build Custom dashboard on SCOM 2012 r2 for Server Monitoring
In which Dashboard shows all details of Server. Firmware of server include on this .
Please advice your expertise
Regards
Dears,
i faced ACS Database disk space issue, so i reduced the retention Period, but i need to know how to purge old data from the current Database. As the Disk Space didn't changed after changing the retention Period.
Hint: OperationsManagerAuditCollection Service stopped because it can't connect to the Database because of this Disk Space issue.
Hi all,
Like DNS role monitoring in this post https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/08a9f11f-e7e6-49d4-a041-677446f0dfed/after-removing-dns-role-from-a-monitored-server-scom-2012-r2-shows-error-about-this-role?forum=operationsmanagergeneral, I moved our Dynamics CRM database to another SQL Server, but the former SQL Server still appears in "CRM Server State".
I tried to override the detection rule, but no effect.
What could I do for removing this SQL Server from CRM monitoring ?
Thank you.
Have a good day.

Hi,
Would like to ask if somebody knows if monitoring of 2008 and 2012 SQL servers with multiple databases has the same issues as 2005 SQL . According link below on 2005 it causes CPU spikes :
http://www.systemcentercentral.com/using-operations-manager-to-monitor-a-sql-server-with-more-than-1000-databases/
if so please provide links how it can be overcome.

Hi,
SCOM 2012 R2 UR6 on Server 2012 R2 server...
I have discovered all my switches (HP) and AP's (Aerohive) using SCOM (Mixture of SNMPv2 and SNMPv3)...
All appear as network devices... however SCOM simply refuses to join SOME of them together on the Network Vicinity Dashboard...
I have had several issues with this from the start... it seems completely random which devices SCOM will join together...
What is more frustrating is it appears SCOM is doing the hard work...
For example...
I have a switch which as 3 AP's connected to it, and an uplink back to a core switch. All devices are in SCOM and healthy...
If I run a Network Vicinity view for the switch I see the switch and the 3 AP's but no core switch (No matter how many hops specified)... however if I go to the Performance view I can see it is monitoring the uplink port so it clearly knows it is connected to another device SCOM is monitoring!!!
In other areas the AP's on the Network Vicinity Dashboard are connected to nothing... this means all I have is ICMP in the Performance view!!
Can anyone help me troubleshoot why SCOM is not putting everything together?
I have performed multiple explicit discoveries which are successful, I have also self-certified my devices (Doing this seems to have joined quite a few devices together after a rediscovery - but I do not believe having a certified device is required for this to work - Anyone know?)... but still I am not getting the complete picture?!
My SCOM server is added into domain and my id is added as administrator on the server but i still cannot install the ADCS
Hi All,
How to show snmp v3 trap in SCOM,management pack?

2. WHat would be high level steps? Any step by step guide would be appreciated. THanks.
Hi,
We are using System Center Operations Manager 2012 R2 in our environment and we have imported all the DFS Replication/Namespace and every related management packs for 2003, 2008 and 2012 but only a few errors are being reported while most DFS related problems
aren't showing up in SCOM.
We would like to know how to get all the DFS-R problems within our SCOM environment because having the Management Packs doesn't seem to work. We also included all of our site servers and file servers that use DFS-R.
What else do we need in order for it to work?
Thanks in advance,
Yours sincerely,

I have an issue that I suspect relates to Agentless monitoring (how I wish now I am in SCOM we could get rid of those Windows 2000 servers!).
Firstly if I look at the state of my two management servers they are showing as “Warning” and both are saying “Failed accessing Windows Event log”.
In Health Explorer the servers are referring to different agentless servers which do report (or rather proxy) to these two management servers. The description detail isThere are no more endpoints available from the endpoint mapper
However what is odd is because of the problems I am having with agentless generally (performance issues on management servers I think) both of these are currently in maintenance mode anyway so why is the MS still trying to access the registry?
Second to “get rid” of them to try and clear the error I have temp removed them to another proxy which is not a SCOM MS but the manegemtn servers are still showing up as Warning and has not cleared
Any ideas? (Apart from upgrading the machines from Windows 2000.. That would be too easy!). And am I even correct in this error is because the management servers where talking to them because they where the proxy for them?
thanks!
(EDIT: after waiting for a long while I thought I would restart the health service on both MS and this got rid of the alert - but questions remains why would the management server still be reporting this and why would I have to restart health to "fix")
The Windows Event Log Provider is still unable to open the SpecAppLog event log on computer 'Spec-proxy1.Spec.com'. The Provider has been unable to open the SpecAppLog event log for 2160 seconds.
Most recent error details: There are no more endpoints available from the endpoint mapper.

Hi Team,
Could you please provide the Checklist: Distributed Upgrade (Complex) for SCOM SP1 to scom 2012 R2
I thought this was a simple question, but it appears I don't have one view to find this information. If a user asks you "what is all being monitored" on a particular server, how do you go about giving them a report of all the unique monitors & rules that are applicable to that system?
Health Explorer shows all the Monitors, but not the Rules. The Override Explorer tool shows all the Overrides applied. Is there something else that lists everything being monitored on a system?
Is there another tool besides Solar Winds Orion that can do dynamic update of a map? I'll explain. If a have a router or a switch down a site, I want the operators to be able to click on the map, and in a few clicks see the devices are connected to the failed device do a quick impact assessment. Furthermore, the map must update automatically when new devices are discovered.
Thanks in advance.

Hi
We have to setup monitoring on a Lync 2013 Edge server, and it is not in the same domain as the rest of the servers.
We have tried the procedure her: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/947691 , but we cannot make it work
I’ve also looked at http://blog.coretech.dk/msk/common-issues-when-working-with-certificates-in-opsmgr/ , but none of the suggestions solve the problem
We have imported the CA certificate on both servers as it says in the Microsoft article, but after restarting the health service on the non-domain computer, the event viewer says:
Event 21016:OpsMgr was unable to set up a communications channel to <fqdn of managementserver> and there are no failover hosts. Communication will resume when <fqdn of managementserver> is available and communication from this computer is allowed.
and
Event 21007: The OpsMgr Connector cannot create a mutually authenticated connection to <fqdn of managementserver> because it is not in a trusted domain.
Do anyone have any tips on how to solve this issue?
Environment, Opsmanager 2012R2
Thanks in advance
