Can override monitor for group

Hi,   We created a unix linux shell command  2 state monitor that we setup to run a shell command.    We also created a group that contains 2 linux machines that we want to enable this monitor on.   After creating
the monitor, we tried to override the monitor and enable just for this group.
When we do this, we can see any of the custom groups that we have defined listed.  None of them.   It seems like this is not right.
What would cause non of our custom groups to show up when overriding a monitor for a group?
Thanks Lance

I Agree with Yan Li as to the source of the issue, my suggestion would be to seal you custom groups pack so that it can be used across multiple override packs.
I would like to make one statement of caution with placing all of the Overrides in a Custom Monitor Overrides MP.  Once you add an override to an unsealed pack it creates a reference, if you ever need to delete the source pack (maybe you no longer have
any server 2003 computers and want to delete the OS Packs) you will need to manually remove the reference from the unsealed pack before it allows you to.

  • Adding an override to enable a monitor for a dynamically populated group has no impact?

    Hello all,
    I have a monitor that I only want to target to a single computer group. The group is dynamically populated.
    My basic approach is that the monitor is disabled by default but enabled with an override for that group. However, the monitor does not appear to be running on those servers (or anywhere else). I was able to confirm this based on the results of running the
    "Show Running Rules and Monitors for this Health Service" task--the overridden monitor does not appear at all in the list of monitors running on the servers in that group.
    I have checked the Operations Manager event log on both the SCOM host and the machines in the group, and have not seen any errors. The monitor being overridden is a PowerShell script monitor, where for script logic issues I have seen that the event log will
    contain information on the error. Nothing appears anywhere to show that the monitor has been enabled for these servers.
    Is there a better way to determine why the monitors would not be running on the servers in the group?
    Thanks!

    Hey Gleb,
    I have validated that the group is being populated and that the monitor's target class matches the class of the group members.
    Checking today, it appears that the monitor has begun running on the members of the group... not sure why there was such a large delay before the monitor began executing on the servers. I still have the dreaded green circles in the health explorer, but have
    narrowed that down to a possible condition in my monitor's PowerShell script where the condition properties are not added to the PropertyBag before the script ends.
    Thanks!

  • Override/disable a monitor for some machines

    Hi All,
    Not sure where the best place for this question is!
    I want to override an alert SCOM is generating. The alert is "
    Static MAC Address is Invalid"
    Right clicking the alert displays an item in the context menu called "View or edit the settings of this monitor". What I'd like to do is disable this monitor for some computers. What would be the best way to do this?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    In Authoring, Groups – create a group with the servers.
    In “View or edit the settings of this monitor” – choose the Override Pane and override for a group

  • Create subscription for overrided monitor

    Hello guys. Have an issue:
    I've created a new monitor for all Servers(Windows Server Operation System Target), set it to disabled. Then I override it to specific group with other thresholds. Alerts are going well, but e-mail do not go. Trying to create subscription from scratch, select
    my monitor (which is disabled) - still mail doesn't come. Questions are:
    1. If I make a subscription from alert, will this subscription apply to all server's group, to which I overrided monitor, or only server from which I created alert?
    2. Can I make a subscription from scratch to this alerts (need to change description, but cannot go to next line if creating from alert)
    3. How can I make a e-mail separation, depending on server group? I.e. I want alerts, generated by overrided monitor specifically for BizTalk servers group to send to BizTalk admins e-mail etc. As I understand, I need to add to subscription criteria "raised
    by any instance of specific group"?

    Hi,
    1) As your Monitor is disabled for all Servers by default and you only enabled for the Servers where you need it the subscription will apply to all Servers where Monitor is enabled.
    2) Yes you can create the subscription from scratch
    3) You have to create a Subscriper for each group and configure it in the subscription. If the same Monitor is running for different Server groups with different responsible departments you have to create a subscription for each department and configure
    the "raised by any instance in a specific group" Condition.

  • How can i use my smart TV as a second monitor for my Power mac (2010) via HDMI cable? i've made the connection but no options show in system prefs display.

    How can i use my smart TV as a second monitor for my Power mac (2010) via HDMI cable? i've made the connection but no options show in system prefs display.
    the computer:Mac Pro, Mac OS X (10.9.5), 2 x 2.66 Ghz 6-Core intel Xeon
    the TV: LG Smart tv

    The Mac uses a highly-parameterized universal Driver for every display. The parameters are set at certain times when a query is sent to your display. The display MUST answer with its name and capabilities, or the screen stays dark. A TV set that is off or "not paying attention" because it is set to a different port when the query occurs will rarely answer, and so will often remain dark.
    You can use tools in the System Report to see whether your display has been detected at all. If it has, the report will look something like this, but its name will appear:
    The times when the query is sent are:
    • at Startup
    • at wake from sleep
    • when the Mac-end of the cable is inserted
    • when using the Option ( Detect Displays ) button in displays preferences

  • Can I use My Ibook G4 as a Second Monitor For My Mac Mini G4

    Hi
    I wonderd if theres any way of being able to use my 14'' Ibook G4 as a second monitor for my Mac Mini G4? I already have a Samsung SyncMaster 913n. Is there any way of doing this by firewire using both monitors, if not what cables would I need?
    Thanks

    There is a application called Synergy which you may find useful. It allows the keyboard, mouse and clipboard to be shared across computers, and even different operating systems. It's not strictly what you have asked for as each computer still runs it's applications (and operating system) separately, meaning you can not drag windows between the screens, but by allowing you to copy and paste between the computers, and seamlessly slide your mouse and keyboard input between them you may get the effect you desire. Oh, and it is free and open-source, so why not give it a whirl?
    You will need to connect the machines with a TCP/IP network, which can be done either with an ethernet patch cable, or alternatively as you suggest, using FireWire - these two articles may assist you in setting that up: IP over FireWire in Panther and Tiger.
    As a point of note, a commercial program, MaxiVista allows exactly what you are looking for under Microsoft Windows.
    Hope that helps.

  • Can i use my 21.5" imac as an external monitor for my macbook pro?

    I have a 21.5" iMac (with Intel processor) that I'm trying to use an external monitor for a new Macbook Pro.  Both machines have a thunderbolt input.  I bought a Belkin mini displayport to mini displayport connector, but my macbook is not displaying on the iMac.  I saw videos online showing this done with the 27" iMac, saying you just needed to press Command+F2, but that is not working for me.  I can't seem to find any posts confiming if I can use my 21.5" iMac this way though.

    You have the display set in Extended Desktop mode. The Menu Bar and Dock will be on the MacBook display and your background screen on the monitor. In System Preferences>Display on the MacBook screen there should be an Arrangement tab when you have the MacBook hooked up to the monitor and both screens working. When you click the Arrangement tab do you see two monitors side by side? One of them will have a Menu Bar at the top. Just click on the Menu Bar and drag it to the second monitor. That will make the second monitor your main screen. You can now use your MacBook in Clamshell Mode with a wired or Bluetooth keyboard and mouse.  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3131 When you disconnect from the monitor your Menu Bar will automatically change back to the MacBook.

  • Can an iMac be used as a monitor for a Mac Pro?

    Hi all,
    I'm getting nowhere looking in the search, so I'm hoping someone can clear something up for me:
    is it possible to use an iMac as a display for a Mac Pro?
    I am beginning to think I'd better get a Mac Pro, but I already have an iMac, for which I've been researching getting external storage so I can do Final Cut Studio editing and back up of it all... as someone suggested, might be better in the long run to just get it all in the Mac Pro, and have the option and simplicity to upgrade as and when... but then there's the need for a display for the Mac Pro, which does whack the price up... but if I could use this iMac, what a beautiful monitor...
    I thought someone said that Final Cut would not allow another computer to be attached though... is that the case, anyone know?
    Thanks for any knowledge and help, much appreciated... I'm learning to not rush into anything, as you learn more the whole picture seems to change!
    Cheers, Syd

    The current 27-inch iMac can. Other iMac models can't outside of a VNC setup or ScreenRecycler; all such solutions require a standalone monitor for setup and troubleshooting.

  • Can I use a PowerPC iMac as a monitor for my MacBook Pro?

    I have an early 2011 MacBook Pro running Mountain Lion. I need an external monitor for it and have an old iMac laying around that I'm wondering if I could use. The iMac is the first gen white square all-in-one screen one. It's a G5, 20" 1.8 GHz from 2005. PowerPC.
    Can I connect my MacBook Pro to it to use as a second monitor? Or even to mirror the display? If so, what kind of connector cables do I need to make this happen?

    You need to use a product such as ScreenRecycler over a network connection. All of these products require the capability to boot the iMac.

  • Can I use the i5 monitor for my Power Mac G4?

    I have a powermac g4. In an effort to conserve space, I was wondering, if I can ditch the monitor for the powermac g4 and connect the desktop to the i5, so I can view everything.
    Is this possible?

    Not directly, no. The input on the iMac will accept only a DisplayPort output. There is one converter on the market that purports to convert DVI to MiniDisplayPort:
    http://www.atlona.com/Atlona-DVI-to-Mini-DisplayPort-Converter-p-17859.html
    but your G4 would of course need to have a DVI output.
    The other option would be to use screen sharing to take control of your PowerMac from the iMac. If your PowerMac is running Leopard, screen sharing is built in. If it's running 10.4 or earlier, you could use the freeware VNC.

  • Can I use my iPad as a monitor for my iMac?

    I have an '06 model iMac running OS Lion.  Recently the screen gave up and it is difficult to see pictures.  I took it to the apple store and had it tested.  The good news is it is just the display, not the video card.  The bad news is I don't have another monitor I can use at this time.  I was wondering if there is a way I can use my iPad 3 to take the place of a monitor.  I want to mirror the image I see on the screen to the iPad.  I wouldn't mind if it were done while connected to the iMac as I prefer using the keyboard as opposed to the touch screen.  I just need a make shift monitor until I get a new mac (soon I hope).

    Yes, there are a couple of apps that can do this. Read the reviews carefully, because none are perfect. Here's a writeup on one of them:
