Displaying hostname in Basic Service Monitor alerts

Hi all,
I've created a new Unit Monitor (specifically, a Basic Service Monitor) to alert when a particular service I stopped on any server in a group that I've defined. When I stop the service to test the alert, I don't see the affected server's hostname anywhere in
the alert. I see the source is set to the name of the group. This isn't all that useful, as I have to check every server until I find the one that the alert was generated for.
I've tried changing values in the Alert Description on the monitor, but haven't had any success here. It seems to me like the answer should be pretty obvious, but I'm stumped.
Thanks!

First - monitors or rules targeting groups is a
bad practice.

Also, getting hostname in the alert is a
discovery issue.

Cloud Service Monitor Alert Can't be Created

Hi Team,
we had a cloud service deployed at Azure North Ireland Data Center,
i would like to create monitor for the role instance, but when creating alert it shows an error, and the alert can't be created.
thanks in advance

Hello Baker,
Thanks for posting here!
I reproduced the issue on my system it works fine for me.
As per the description provided what I have understood is that the configuration did not go successfully or could be a problem in execution.
Delete the configuration and try to reconfigure the Alerts.
Sometimes it could be the browser issue. Try deleting cache and cookies and then try again or try with different browser.
If it doesn't work, I suggest you could try to deploy a new cloud service and the try to configure the Alerts.
You might want to check the below mentioned links for better understanding:

Service Monitor Not Alerting

I have a service monitor setup to monitor up down of a service. The service yesterday starting to terminate and restart it self but the monitor is not catching that it is going down. The monitor works fine we we take it down manually. I think the restart
is happening too quickly. Has anyone seen something like this and is there a fix for it?

Hi,
The default frequency of the basic service monitor is 60 Seconds if I have it in mind correctly so you may not got an alert for every service restart.
If you want to get an alert for every service restart you may have to use an Event Monitor to check the Service Start/Stop Events.
Have a look on this thread also:

How to create Service Monitor - best Way

I have a task at hand :
Creating monitor to alert when a service is stopped.
We are using SCOM 2012
I checked and found various ways to do so http://www.bictt.com/blogs/bictt.php/2011/03/16/scom-monitoring-a-service-part1
My requirement is : there are like 100 such services on 100 different windows computers that i need to monitor.
The services are not common , so 2 computers have the same service , Maybe some service that i need to be monitored be on 2 computers but overall every service is unique.
What is my best option:
1.Create a basic unit monitor and target to Windows computer class ? Create is as disabled ? Override for just the machine that has it.
Will it clutter my Windows Server class health explorer . (How bad is that as per performance)
2.Create a Service monitor using Windows Service templates
Do i have to create 100 target groups , as i have to Target the monitor to specific computer only
Since template service monitor create discoveries , targets etc on its own (Am i going to clutter SCOM with a lot of those) 100
3.Do i create a attribute for each service , so as to extend the windows base class to discover the computer that has specific service (Using registry)
too much work is it and how good of an option is this.
4.MP Authoring ,Create new class discovery based on WMI / Registry to find computer and then target the monitor
What would you do in such a case.

An example is the windows service monitoring from the Windows Management Packs. Microsoft does not discover any of these services. The MPs discover the Windows 2003 \ 2008 \ 2012 Operating System Class and the basic service monitors are targetted at
this class. This means it is relatively light weight monitoring (less overhead on the agent and less discovery information in the databases) but it does mean that you can't add any of these services to a distributed application or report on their availability.
You don't report on individual monitors but on objects which may have many monitors targetted at them.

If you want to actually report on the availability of this windows service (or add it to a Distributed Application) then you do need to discover it - either via the Authoring Template or authoring your own discoveries.
Only you can decide what you need and you might have a different need for each service depending on what it is doing.
Jonathan Almquist has a good walk through here about how to change service monitoring to allow for consecutive occurrences of a service being unavailable but it is deep authoring.

Understanding a service monitor "Service Details"?

I am just trying to understand an alert coming from the ConfigMgr/SCCM 2012 management pack but I guess my question is a bit broader than that in that it will help me understand over service alerts
For most service monitoring I just look at the basic service monitor itself and the “service details”. For instance the monitoring the WMI service just shows as “WinMgmt” as I would expect.
However I have an alert for a “ConfigMgr Site Role Issue”. When I use health explorer this then shows as “Site SQL Backup Service Monitor”. When I look at the “service details” for this it shows as –
$Target/Property[Type="SCCM!Microsoft.SystemCenter2012.ConfigurationManager.SqlServer"]/BackupServiceName$
I just wonder if someone can explain this line and what its actually looking at? Is there somewhere I can view this better as to what it is monitoring?

Hi,
BackupServiceName$ should be one property defined under the sqlserver class which is defined in Microsoft.SystemCenter2012.ConfigurationManager MP.
You may need to open the XML which defined the class, and then ctrl+f to search the key word “BackupServiceName$”

BOXI service monitoring

All,
I just wanted to get an idea from the experts here - which tool/application, in your experience, has done a good job in monitoring of Windows-based system services (BO XI R2 services to be specific)? I am looking for some open-source (or freeware) tool that can help me with monitoring for the status of all BO services, including Tomcat. Any alerting capabilities when services go down or are high on CPU/RAM utilization would be added bonus, but if not, basic service monitor would be okay as well.
Has anyone used any OTS or custom tools for this kind of systems administration on Windows-based BO servers?
Regards,
Sarang

Sarang,
And to give you more choices ... there has been movement recently between BO and Tivoli to develop more proactive monitoring tools,which you can read about here: [http://labs.businessobjects.com/enterprise_monitoring/default.asp])
Thanks,
John

Service Monitoring in SCOM which triggers an alert after a wait time

Hi ,
I have a requirement to amend on of our services monitors to alert after waiting for 3 minutes after the service goes down.
Is this possible using SCOM or do we need to script this.
Please advise.
Jesty

For configure that using script, you can refer below link

Windows Service Monitor - False Alerts

Scenario : We have a custom Service Monitor that is created long back and enabled for all Servers. I just noted that the service is not present in all servers except few. I also noticed that there are some Overrides for 5 servers which does
not make any sense to me as it was overridden to enable this monitor.
Issue : Now the issue is, I got alerts for 5 servers for which the service is not installed at all. How is that possible ?
S.Arun Prasath HP ARDE TEAM

HOw to you create this service monitor?
You can create your service monitor either
1) From Authoring workspace --> Management pack Templates --> Windows services
http://www.bictt.com/blogs/bictt.php/2011/03/17/scom-monitoring-a-service-part3
OR
2) Authoring workspace --> Monitors
http://www.bictt.com/blogs/bictt.php/2011/03/17/scom-monitoring-a-service-part2
You understanding is correct if you using method 1) to create service monitor. Otherwise, you should enable the monitor for computer which has te service present.

Setting up service monitoring on a group of servers, but only alerting when the service is down on all servers

Hey All -
I have the need to monitor one service that exist on 3 servers, but the service only runs on one of the servers at a time, and the servers are not set up as a cluster. Any ideas around how to accomplish this?

Hi,
Create a service monitor as previously described and then create a distributed application and add the new service monitor for all servers to a component group. Then set the health rollup to Best state of any member - I think that should work...

Operations Manager - KMS Idle Minutes Monitor Alerts - False Positives As Event ID 12290 Still Being Logged

Hi all,
I am using System Center 2012 R2 Operations Manager with the Key Management Service Management Pack at version 6.0.7234.0, and I keep receiving the following alert in Operations Manager:
"Idle Minutes Monitor Alert:
Key Management Service (KMS) inactivity exceeded threshold
Knowledge:
Summary:
The purpose of this rule is to alert system administrators to a possible KMS or network outage. This rule monitors the end-to-end operation of KMS activation. A notification event is created by KMS if no activation or renewal requests were logged by KMS
(activity event 12290) in the specified time interval. In addition to new activations, periodic renewal requests are expected to occur (default is 7 days). Whether or not this alert is serious depends on the number of machines in the KMS environment, how many
are actually connected, and the configured renewal interval.
Causes:
Any failure or incorrect configuration of the KMS service, other Windows components, firewall, hardware, network or routers can trigger the Idle Minutes Alert. This alert can also result from normal behavior, since it is possible that not enough machines
attempted to activate or renew during the specified time interval.
Resolutions:
The first step is to determine whether there really is a problem. Start with a known good KMS client and run (with elevated privileges) the script slmgr.vbs -ato . If the activation/renewal fails, it will report an error code. You can direct the client to
connect to a specific KMS machine by using the slmgr.vbs -skms option. The request event (12288) and response event (12289) in the Windows Application event log may provide additional information, including the identity of failing KMS machines. If there has
been a failure, check the following:
Software Licensing service (slsvc) is running.
Other KMS machine behavior is normal.
KMS firewall port is open (default is TCP 1688).
Attempt to connect to KMS using telnet to the KMS port(you won’t be able to do anything other than connect)
Use a network monitor (e.g. netmon) to capture and trace network problems.
There is one Idle Minutes Monitor that is used to monitor for activity. It may be desirable to adjust the time threshold, depending on expected KMS activity."
Despite what the alert says, there are activity events with ID 12290 being logged, but they are appearing under the 'Key Management Service' log instead of the general 'Application' log. I know that my clients are activating with the server without
any problems as I have run slmgr.vbs -ato with success on a number of them, and none are stating that activation is required. This issue was previously raised here:
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/systemcenter/en-US/1391acf8-f0be-4a48-9039-8d24e275f1fd/kms-idle-time-monitor-raise-wrong-alerts?forum=operationsmanagermgmtpacks, but I am running Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 and the hotfix KB981314 comes
up as 'not applicable to this computer' so I assume it is part of SP1 now. I have also tried installing KB2692929, as that was cited as being a possible fix here:
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/systemcenter/en-US/8ec8ae5b-a310-4b0f-9a5f-e0599bceb93a/kms-managementpack?forum=operationsmanagermgmtpacks, however I am still seeing the same alerts.
Would greatly appreciate any further suggestions!
Many thanks

Hi,
I've checked for all the events that are generated by our servers, and there are periods of time where no requests are received for up to 18 hours, so that is no doubt why the alerts are appearing (we then sometimes see five requests in the same minute,
but there we go). I'll need to adjust the thresholds.
Thank you for your help, Chunky.1, I'll mark your reply as the answer, as it was very helpful in understanding the alert.
For anyone else who needs to check this, create a PowerShell script using the following content, and place your own details into the relevant sections in bold (without the brackets, of course). This will generate a csv file which will have the server
name in one column and the time that the request event was generated - you can then check the gaps between the requests. The script is quick and dirty, with no checks along the way, so feel free to embellish it as required.
Out-File "<directory to place file in>\KMS_check_results.csv"
$results = get-eventlog -ComputerName <KMS server hostname> -logname 'Key Management Service'|where{$_.message -match "<String which identifies servers instead of clients>"}
$filteredresults = @()
foreach($event in $results){
    #This splits up the message into sections, separated by commas, and places each section as an element in an array
    $event.Message -split ","|foreach{
        if($_ -match "<server domain suffix - e.g. contoso.com>"){
            $eventserver = $_
    $timegenerated = $event.TimeGenerated
    $filteredresults += New-Object PSObject -Property @{
        Server = $eventserver
        TimeGenerated = $timegenerated
$filteredresults|select-object server,timegenerated|export-csv "<directory to place file in>\KMS_check_results.csv" -NoTypeInformation

Windows Service Monitoring

Hello All,
I have implemented a Windows Service Monitoring to look after some custom windows services on a Windows Server with a 3rd party piece of software installed. The monitor has been working as expected and has kept an eye on the services and alerted when they
have stopped.
However, the support team are now reporting that they are alerted when the service stops and starts. And they receive the same alert regardless, stating that the service has been stopped.
Is there something I am missing from my configuration? How can I amend it so that the support team are only alerted when the service is stopped? And why would it alert when its started?
Hope someone can help
James

This actually sounds like a notification issue. Do they have notifications set up to send them emails when an alert goes from one state to the next? What I mean by that is, New Alert, Closed Alert. When setting up notifications, it's a
common mistake to not include the alert criteria, which will cause behavior like this, ops teams getting several emails when the state of the alert is changed by the system or operator. If you look at the alert details in the email, you may notice, a
slight difference in the resolution state field, if that is displayed.
If this is the issue, find the notification subscription and have it changed so that they only receive alerts with a resolution state of NEW.

Cisco Unified Operations Manager v Cisco Service Monitor

I am unfamiliar with both od these products. Both seem to overlap in that they seem to aim for end to end voice quality management, relying on the 1040 probe.
Am I off base here? Are they similar products, one or both maybe OEM'd???
Are they widely deployed?
Any thoughts welcome.
Regards

Hi Gordon,
They are very much complimentary. In fact, installing OM used to install SM by default on same box.
OM doesn't collect info from the 1040 probes. SM does this, and then alerts to OM if thresholds are breached.
OM will then display the alert.
Operations Manager is very much about actively monitoring the health of the UC environment. Here's a couple of practical examples of what it does:
- Maps out a logical view of the environment
- Performs scheduled tests - checks CM reg, dial tone, TFTP
- Simulates calls with both synthetic phones and even real phones
- Interactive tests - check phone features are working etc
- Performance management - view utilisation of GW's CM's etc.
- IP SLA - simulated calls, jitter testing across the network using routers / switches and IP SLA features
- Alert monitoring - dashboard view
Service Monitor is very focussed on measuring the actual user experience of calls.
- It can use CDR / CMR records (with no 1040 HW sensors deployed) to record, and monitor the quality of individual calls
- It can also use the 1040 HW sensors to collect more granular call quality details.. (it sends the details to SM via syslog constantly)
- Report and alert on call quality based on thresholds (Alerts are sent to OM and appear in your alerts window)
The only real overlap I would say is that OM does some quality tests with IP SLA, but it is based on synthetic calls rather than working with data about real calls.
There is also another module, Unified Service Statistics Monitor, I'd recommend looking at this too, it provides the historical component, and also a variety of different reporting - including service levels and executive style dashboards.
I've done a few deployments. Standard network management principles apply, and I think this is where a lot of them fall down. No product can manage your network for you automatically, the biggest part is people and process. Once you have this in place you can definitely use products like OM, SM to automate and simplify.
The larger and more complex your network, the more valuable and useful these products can become.
My recommendation is to get the eval copy, and try them out. You do need to think carefully about what you want to achieve though, without this step, an install of these products probably won't impress. The art is all about the setup.
Cheers,
Tim

Multiple displays with 15"and 19"monitor using a VGA splitter on my Mac Pro

Hi, so I have a brand spanking new Mac Pro and have been using a cheap, basic 15" monitor with it. As I'm doing lots of Edit/graphics work I've just purchased a new monitor, it's a 19" Acer flatscreen. Now I'm hoping to work the same display across both monitors, so I can set up my preview window on the 15" and do my work on the 19" screen.
The Mac has two DVI output sockets in the back, both monitors are VGA but I only have one DVI to VGA adaptor. Though I do have a VGA splitter! So I've tried going from one DVI socket to VGA, then put the splitter into that and then each monitor into each split socket, if that makes sense? I now have the same display on each screen i.e. while I'm typing this I'm looking at it twice but I want to see it once over two screens, how do I adjust this, there's no option in display settings?
Is it simply that I need to buy another DVI to VGA adaptor and use the other port? Just looking to save myself a tenner, that's all!
Thanks!
Alex

Yep, you're right! Thanks, working now, very useful.

Having Issue with Service Monitor Report when using Oracle DB

You need to add a Gateway node the service monitor.
To do this browse to http://HOST:8040/
Using the default port, you can connect to the Service Monitor interface in a browser, where HOST points to the IP address or hostname of the machine on which Service Monitor is installed.
Right mouse click and add the Gateway node.

Issue in Global Services Monitor GSM

Dear all,
I'm facing a problem in Global Services Monitor.
The Resources pool contains 4 Management Servers; 2 old and 2 recently installed.
The GSM was installed and was working normally on the old Management Servers.
But, after increasing the number of management servers to be 4 instead of two, the problem appeared.
The GSM is firing alerts on the new MS's and their state are critical (old 2 servers are healthy).
The alert description is as below:
Global Service Monitor Modules: Failed to discover Global Service Monitor locations.

Hi
Is there any requirement to install the Microsoft Root Certificate on the server where SCOM console is working? Shall I need to purchase Windows Azure Subscription also for GSM? Please let me know.
The scenario is - I have one SCOM server (Including all the server roles on the single server) and other server where VMM server and SCOM console is installed. I have installed GSM Management Packs on the SCOM server and configured one Web Availability Monitor
to be monitored from external servers (e.g. Chicago).
I am getting the below error:-
