Disable discovery for non remotable agents (SQL instance)

Hello,
I do have SQL clusters monitored by SCOM. "Operations Manager" on each cluster node is filled with plenty of Warning like ones below:
Rule/Monitor "Microsoft.AD.ClientPerspective.Discovery" running for remote instance "<SQL INSTANCE>" with id:"<ID>" will be disabled as it is not remotable. Management group "XXX".
Rule/Monitor "Microsoft.SystemCenter.Apm.ApmAgent.Discovery" running for remote instance "<SQL INSTANCE>" with id:"<ID>" will be disabled as it is not remotable. Management group "XXX".
Rule/Monitor "Microsoft.SystemCenter.Apm.CsmAgent.Discovery" running for remote instance "<SQL INSTANCE>" with id:"<ID>" will be disabled as it is not remotable. Management group "XXX".
How can I disable above discovery to run on any SQL instance ?
Regards.

Hi,
Please try to make all the workflows you want to execute against a VS be tagged as remotable=”true”, more details:

Disable monitoring for non-system disks.

Hi all,
Our backup server dynamically mounts disks (with drive letters) when it's backing up a Virtual Machine.
These disks are giving a lot of alerts in our monitoring that we don't need, therefore we want to disable monitoring for these disks. What is the best way to disable monitoring for these non-system disks ? As I said, these disks are dynamically mounted and
unmounted ...
Any experience with this case ?
Kind Regards,
J. Monnens

This is a bit surprising, since the logical disk discovery only runs once a day, plus it's not supposed to discover network and removable drives.
That means that your disks are mounted when the discovery runs and that they appear as "real" logical disks...
Unfortunately there is no "sync time" parameter for this discovery, which would have allowed you to specify the time of the day at which the discovery runs; thus allowing you to set a time at which you know the drives are not mounted.
Is there any other parameter that could help identifying these specific disks, besides their letter, so you could add them to a dynamic group?
Otherwise, what you could maybe try is to create your own logical disk discovery based on the native one, but with specific settings that would exclude your drives and then disable the native discovery.
But this again implies that you have something that would let you identify specifically your mounted drives... Also the native discovery is a quite complex VBS, I wouldn't actually recommend disabling/modifiying it.
Maybe I could have another idea with more details about your environment...

CME and UCCX, G.729 for local/remote agents?

Hi Everybody,
Here is the environment
Local site
- CME 8.5 (single node)
- UCCX 8.5 (single node)
- the SIP route point is configured for codec g711ulaw
- Desk IP Phone and CAD
Remote site
- Metro-E connection with local site
- Desk IP Phone and CAD
In UCCX administration GUI, System > System parameters > Media Parameters > Codec
It only allows me to choose G711...
is it possible to enable the G.729 for the local and remote agent?
Thanks in advance
Sam

I have added the following in CME to add a transcoder, and restarted the CCX engine.
But the UCCX system parameter > media codec still not allows me to choose G.729.
Did I make something wrong in CME settings?

Access to Cloud App Discovery for non-tenant admins

Is there a way to provide a non-tenant admin access to the cloud app discovery portal?

Hey,
It's currently in "Preview" and as a separate service. You will need to check with MS if they will move it to the Azure Management Portal once it is officially released. If they do, then the answer will be yes.

Code required to disable flash for non flash users

Hi I am very new to flash and require some code that enables users who do not have flash the ability to view an image instead of the swf movie clip.
My code is as follows:

      </object>
I am using actionscript 2, with the following actionscript:
// All time in milliseconds. (1000 = 1 second)
maxTB = 4000; // Maximum time between flickering
minTB = 1000; // Minimum time between flickering
flickerDuration = 2000; // How long flicker will last
// Get a random start time.
flickerTime = getNewTime();
// Every frame execute the following code.
this.onEnterFrame = function(){
// Get current time in milliseconds.
curTime = getTimer();
// Check if current time is past the time to flicker.
if(curTime >= flickerTime){
// Flickering.
// Check if flicker has lasted the duration specified.
if(curTime <= flickerTime+flickerDuration){
// Continue flickering.
// Alternate between alpha values.
// This creates the flicker appearance.
if( cnt >= 2){
// Reduce alpha.
// Lower this for more dramatic effect.
this._alpha = 90;
cnt = 0;
} else {
// Increase alpha.
this._alpha = 100;
cnt++;
} else {
// Flicker lasted for duration.
// Stop flickering and get next time to flicker.
this._alpha = 100;
flickerTime = getNewTime();
// Create a random time between maxTB and minTB specified.
function getNewTime(){
return getTimer() + (Math.random() * (maxTB-minTB))+minTB;
I would really appreciate any help on this as I have searched on Google for hours and cannot find anything that I am able to understand. Thank you.

some flash versions publish html files that make it easy to present alternative content (check your html file) and you can always use swfobject to present alternative content.

"Disable Check for SQL Express" against SQL Server Agent

Good afternoon,
Seeing as it has been a know issue for many years now[1],
is there a reason why Microsoft has yet to include a “Disable Check for SQL Express” override (similar to the
Automatic Configuration (& other) monitors) for each of the following objects included in the
Microsoft SQL Server Management Pack?
SQL Server Agent Windows Service (Monitor)
Discover SQL Server Agent for a DB Engine (Discovery)
This would prevent me from have to continually create overrides
disabling the monitor|discovery each time a new instance of SQL Express is installed in our Management Group.
Thanks,
Larry

OTO information not complete for non ABAP instance of system &1 in SMSY

Hello,
We have just applied Stack 23 and stack 24 to our Solution Manager system. When we are executing action System Logon from a ticket we are getting the following error:
OTO information not complete for non ABAP instance of system &1 in SMSY
We checked that this new message was created in note Note 1427761 - ChaRM: incorrect target system for action "System Logon".
We went to the SMY transaction to the Product System definition for our system but we could not find which OTO information is missing there, where to load it, etc.
We appreciate your help.
Regards
Esteban Hartzstein

Hello,
We have not applied the note separately, but we applied the support packages, so all the changes were applied, and therefore we are getting this error message of "OTO information is not complete ....
We have updated as suggested the info regarding the system in the SMSY. We have read the Remote System Data.
We will run SOLMAN_SETUP again to review the setup, and then test again
We appreciate also if you provide any additional input.

Can DPM share a remote SQL Instance with other System Centre Products?

Firstly, apologies if this has been answered elsewhere but I can't seem to find a definitive line on it.
I am about to install and start implementing DPM 2012 R2 and have restricted access to SQL instances and the creation of. Can DPM share a SQL instance? Mainly can it share an instance shared with other System Centre products?
Does it really need a dedicated DB engine and Reporting services instance?

Hi,
No, Each DPM server requires it's own dedicated instance name. You can have a single remote SQL server, but with seperate instances for each DPM server, or other System Center products.
Make sure that names of your instances does not contains an underscore in the instance name.

The process could not execute 'sp_repldone/sp_replcounters' error for Log Reader Agent and SQL Server Assertion 17066 & 3624 errors in SQL Logs

One of our SQL Server started creating SQLDUMP file and and on investigation I found the error longs are filled with Errors 3624 & 17066. There is transnational replication configured on one of the databases is the LogReader Agent is failing error "The
process could not execute 'sp_repldone/sp_replcounters' on XXXXX".
Not sure if both these Assertion & Logreader Agent errors are related. Before I remove and put the replication, I wanted to check if anyone has experienced the same issues or aware of what the cause.

Thank you in advance.

You need to determine if this error is a transient one or a show stopper one.
It sounds like your log reader agent has crashed and can't continue.
If so your best bet is to call Microsoft CSS and open a support incident.
It also sounds like DBCC CHECKDB was running while the log reader agent crashed.
If you need to get up and running again run sp_replrestart, but then you might find that replicated commands are not picked up. You will need to run a validation to determine if you need to reinitialize the entire publication or a single article.
I have run into errors like this, but they tend to be transient, ie the log reader agent crashes, and on restart it works fine.

SQL tab not working in V2.1 EA1 for non-DBA users -- how to fix?

In v2.1 EA 1 the tab to show the SQL script (DDL) in the object browser is not working for non-DBA users. In the prior version, these users would see a message about DBMS_METADATA and then the message would indicate that an "internal generator" would be used to generate the DDL script. After that brief message the DDL would show up as expected. This doesn't seem to be the case in the newest version.
I issued the following two grants to a particular user which worked, but I am reluctant to issue the grants to "PUBLIC".
SQL> grant execute on DBMS_METADATA to XXXXX;
SQL> grant select_catalog_role to XXXXX;
So, my questions are:
1) Will the old functionality (that didn't require these privileges) be added to V2 at some point?
2) What security implications are there for issueing the above grants to PUBLIC?
NOTE: After granting execute on the DBMS_METADATA package, it still didn't work. I left that grant in place and granted SELECT_CATAOG_ROLE, so I can't say for sure that the 1st grant was required.

An OEM account is separate from the database account. You need to use OEM UI to create an OEM account, however, for certain tasks to be done in the databases which OEM is monitoring they will also require separate database accounts within those databases. For example, to view the performance tab in OEM UI, a database account is required.
OEM only has two types of users, i.e. Super Administrator and Administrator, but don't go by the names. You can grant an OEM 'Administrator' account access to specific targets and what they can do within OEM, such as only viewing reports, targets, and so on. For access within a database, the user created need not be a DBA either.
I hope you understand.

How to disable check for updates in sql developer 3.2

Is there a possibility to disable or remove the "Check for Updates" option in SQL Developer 3.2.2 version.
I have tried using the below AddVmMOption but it is not working
AddVMOption -Dide.noextensions=oracle.ide.webupdate
AddVMOption -Dide.cfu.autoskip=true

Hi,
If you are referring to Help -> Check for Updates, I'm not certain if that is possible.
If you mean Tools -> Preferences -> Extensions, just uncheck the Automatically Check for Updates box. Doing that is standard procedure for improving the tool's launch performance.

SSRS for SCOM 2012 need separate instance of SQL

Hi All,
My customer has planned to install SCOM 2012 R2 in their environment. I designed for them as followings:
Planned 3 MS servers namely, MS1, MS2 & MS3
The rolls planned on those MS servers as follows:
MS1 – Management Server,
Operation console & Web console
MS2 – Management Server,
Operation console & Web console
MS3 – Management Server,
ACS, SQL Reporting services & SCOM Reporting server
Customer has their existing SQL cluster database configured. This existing SQL database is also utilized by other applications.
I am planning to keep all the SCOM databases (Operation Manager DB, Operation DW DB, Reporting DB & ACS DB) on the central location on SAN storage of the SQL cluster.
For this, I requested to customer for a new instance of SQL to install SCOM DBs & SQL Server Reporting services.
Customer raised a concern on Why would need to install the databases & SQL Server Reporting services on a separate instance.
I replied as, The new instance requested will host the databases along with the SQL Server reporting services (SSRS).
The installation of SQL server report server will integrate the security of selected SSRS instance with Operation Manager role based security. Any reports that were previously installed on this
SQL server instance might become inaccessible. No other applications that are using SQL Server Reporting Services can be installed on this instance of SQL Server.
On this, Customer says if SSRS is planning to install on the MS3 server then there would not need to create a separate instance on SQL cluster. We can go with the existing instance for installation
of SCOM databases on SQL cluster and SSRS on MS3 server.
I need your inputs on this, as can I still require the new instance of SQL on SQL cluster or can go with the existing instance for installation of SCOM databases on SQL cluster and SSRS on MS3 server.
Kindly provide your inputs.
Regards,
SandeepK

Although SCOM can share a single instance running SQL Server to store data, this is not a recommended configuration. The SSRS is the same, no document says that it can be shared with others.

I am trying connect to a SQL instance for our CRM program and I am receiving To Connect to this Server you must use SQL Management Studio or SQL Server Management

I am trying connect to a SQL instance for our CRM program and I am receiving To Connect to this Server you must use SQL Management Studio or SQL Server Management
This is a Brand new Server 2012 that is running our CRM product and it is trying to connect to a Server 2008 R2 server with SQL Server 2008 R2 SP2 instance (10.50.4000)
I have seen this in the past where it needed the 2005 backwards compatibility components installed but those are not supported on 2012 server and this is not a 2005 SQL instance.
I am trying to install the Shared Management Objects for SQL Server 2008 but it tells me I need to install the CLR types, which I did install. But it continues to tell me to install the CLR types.
Has anyone ran into any issues like this? (this happens trying to connect to multiple SQL Servers from this new 2012 Server)
Thanks!
-Max

Hello,
Which version and edition of the SQL Server instance did you installed on the new server machine? If you install SQL Server 2012 Express edition, you can try to install SQL Server Management Studio 2012 from
this link.
You can connect to SQL Server 2008 R2 or earily verions with SSMS 2012.
What's more, Microsoft SQL Server 2008 Management Objects Collection requires Microsoft Core XML Services (MSXML) 6.0, Microsoft SQL Server Native Client, and Microsoft SQL Server System CLR Types. You can try to download and install
SQL Serve 2008 Feature Pack
which contains packages above.
