How to use the SCOM 2012 Web Reporting page

Hello all-
   We are on SCOM 2012 SP1. I just have a general question about reporting. I know there is a "Reporting" tab in the real, locally installed, SCOM Operations Console software. That part I get. I see that there
are many pre-made reports the for me to run. For example under Microsoft Server 2008 Operating System (Monitoring) folder there is a
Performance History report. When I double click on it, it takes me to the report window where I can click
Add Object and add a server and then click
Run.
This is pretty simple in concept.   BUT very few people at my company have the full Operations Console installed on their machine. And as I'm sure you know, the SCOM Web Console does not have a Reporting Tab. So they have to use the
SCOM Reporting website to run such reports. I found that you can get to this page at the url:
http://<reporting server>/Reports
This does bring up the Reporting console. On the list I do see a Report.Windows.Server.2008.PerformanceHistory listed. So this surely seems to be the equivalent from my screenshot above.   However, it's not even close to user friendly like
the Reporting area in the SCOM operations console software. There's multiple fields at the top. All of which are required, and almost none of which have dropbox or other ways to help you fill them in. I have no idea what to put into these boxes or the format
to use.
What am I missing here? Is there a more user friendly interface anywhere? In an ideal world, I'd really love to have a user interface where I can post the links to a few popular reports, like CPU and Disk Space for example. Then ideally
all the user would have to do is select their servers and the time frame and that's all.   Which really is what you do in the Operations Console software.   So isn't is it that easy in the web reporting tool? Is there a guide or how-to
section somewhere I'm missing? Or just a more friendly looking way to get at this information?

Well, my first screen shot above is squished, so you really can't see it. But what I'm saying is that the same report in the SCOM software has the level of configuration I want on it.   It allows you to pick the date range and add objects
to it, then you can click on Run.     However when I access the same report on the reporting console, it has all these extra fields. None of which I know how to fill in properly.
I would ultimately like my customers to be able to do exactly that in the web version. Pick their server and their date range and run it.   There are not likely going to be too many reports like you're mentioning which I can completely configure
before hand, so they just click on the link to have it run. Most times I'd like my users to at least be able to select a server name.
Any idea how I would simplify the web version of the report? Or why they look so very different?

Resource Pool "Observer" - how failover works in SCOM 2012

We currently have 5 Management Servers SCOM 2012 SP1 Cu6 + a SQL Failover Cluster for SQL database of SCOM/SCOMDW.
2 of these Management Servers are dedicated for network monitoring of approximately 200-400 network devices (including certified and generic devices). Additionally, we have about 20 distributed apps + 30-40 websphere JVM instances defined which are spread
accross all management servers.
my questions
1.) how can I determine, where a distributed app or network device or websphere instance is currently attached to? They belong to any member in the resource pool, but I haven't found any possbility to query scom (e.g. PowerShell) where a specific entity is
currently attached.
2.) for network monitoring, a seperate resource pool is defined (no scom agent is connected to these 2 servers). These two servers have local SSD disks, 2x quad core CPUs and 24GB memory each. When one of these management servers is rebooted, the mistery
starts. Many distributed apps throw a critical error (unavailable), in the eventlog many network devices throw also an error that they are offline, in SCOM they turn gray. The remaining management server is nearly exploding (high IOPS without much throughput)
for approx. 30 minutes, it seems that after return of the second management server they try to balance somehow the instances, but with many errors. (antivirus is turned off)
=> now, after several days, we've found somewhere in the internet the info that with 2 management servers in a resource pool, an observer should be defined. Should this resolve our issue or will e.g. the distributed apps always through an alert until their
state is recalculated? The documentation to the observer function is rare, and we are not able to find any further hint how to resolve our issue when doing reboots of management servers.
Thanks so far!
Best Regards Klaus

Dear Alexis,
Thanks for your answer. We've now changed the "All Management Server" Resource Pool to "Manual Membership" (through PowerShell), and clearly defined Observers for each resource Pool. Now, if any management server fails, the objects (distributed App, WebSphere
Instance, ...) turn into "not monitored" instead of "offline" which makes the difference now.
However, the network monitoring servers need about 30 to 60 minutes after reboot of one of them until they've reprocessed and recalculated everything. Within this time, the disk has 100% active time with approx. 1500 disk transfers/sec and about 1MB/s throughput.
(we've about 300 network devices - 150 are certified ones - attached to the management servers)
Best Regards Klaus

How can I add SCOM 2012 Alert Context within a SCOM Alert When using a cusom powershell script in a two state monitor?

Hello, we have a two state monitor and I would like to channel the Alert Context to Alert Description.
The powershell script being used to find the stopped services is pasted below:
$API = new-object -comObject "MOM.ScriptAPI"
$bag = $api.CreatePropertyBag()
$ServiceStatus = Get-WmiObject -class win32_service |where {$_.startmode -eq'Auto'-and $_.State -eq 'Stopped' -and
$_.name -ne 'wuauserv'}
if (!$ServiceStatus) #if there are no automatic services that are stopped, we are healthy.
write-host "good"
$bag.addvalue("State","good")
if ($servicestatus) #if there are any automatic services that are stopped, we are unhealthy.
write-host "bad"
$bag.addvalue("State","bad")
foreach ($service in $servicestatus) #enumerate the stopped services
$bag.addValue("$($Service.Name):","$($Service.state)")
$bag
$API.Return($BAG)
The results of the services that are stopped are being captured in the Alert Context”. How can I pipe the Alert Context to “Alert Description” to obtain a meaningful alert?
Alert Context data:
Property Name                              Property Value
State
bad
clr_optimization_v4.0.30319_32: Stopped
clr_optimization_v4.0.30319_64: Stopped
How can I pipe to Alert Description in SCOM 2012?
Thanks,
Kapil Dham
Kapil Dham

you don't need write-host
you should create
$bag.addvalue("ServiceName1","StateOK")
$bag.addvalue("ServiceName2","StateStopped")
and in alert description you will see
ServiceName1
StateOK
ServiceName2
StateStopped
So try $bag.addValue($Service.Name,$Service.state)
and $Data/Context/Property$

SCOM 2012 Agent - Best Practices with Base Images

I've read through the
SCOM 2012 agent installation methods technet article, as well as how to
install the SCOM 2012 agent via command line, but don't see any best practices in regards to how to include the SCOM 2012 agent in a base workstation image. My understanding is that the SCOM agent's unique identifier is created at the time of client installation,
is this correct? I need to ensure that this is a supported configuration before I can recommend it.
If it is supported, and it does work the way I think it does, I'm trying to find out a way to strip out the unique information so that a new client GUID will be created after the machine is sysprepped, similar to how the SCCM client should be stripped of
unique data when preparing a base image.
Has anyone successfully included a SCOM 2012 (or 2007 for that matter) agent in their base image?
Thanks,
Joe

Hi
It is fine to build the agent into a base image but you then need to have a way to assign the agent to a management group. SCOM does this via AD Integration:

You might also want to consider group policy or SCCM as methods for installing agents.

SNMP traps from EMC SRM to SCOM 2012 R2

Hi,
I'm trying to configure SCOM 2012 R2 as an SNMP trap listner. I've seen many articles on setting this up but all are based around SNMP traps from network devices which must first be discovered and identified in the network device list.
However in my scenario I am trying to monitor/listen for traps send by a Linux box hosting EMC SRM - this management software can be configured to send SNMP traps out so it is these that I need to try and listen for/capture.
So can anyone explain how I can configure SCOM 2012 R2 to do this. I have tried to just used the IP of the Linux box and discover it as a network device but it fails - in Network Devices Pending Mgmt it says No response Ping, even though I can
ping the box from the Server OK - so I am guessing you cant cheat scom in discovering the Linux box as a network device in ths way?
Can anyone offer any advice for setting this up. Just to add I've ensured the RunAs Community String (public) and SNMP version is correct on both side...
Cheers...

Once the Network Device (Linux server in this case) is discovered you will still need a rule that targets that class and accepts incoming SNMP Traps for that OID, or All OIDs if you prefer. I found 2 links that may be of help, the first is just a basic
overview of the SNMP listener in SCOM 2012 as it has changed from the OS Listener in 2007 to a dedicated one.
http://systemcentertech.com/2012/05/17/scom-2012-built-in-snmp-trap-listener/
The second link covers SNMP setup, but starting at Step 7 there is a great how-to on creating your own SNMP rule which will be needed to collect your traps.

SCOM 2012 alerts fine tuning

Hi,
How to fine tune SCOM 2012 alerts we are getting huge amount of alerts , to stop unwanted alerts and how to customised what is being monitored ?
Thanks.

There are a number of posts which provide recommendations.
https://dynamicdatacenter.wordpress.com/tag/scom-alert-tuning/
http://blogs.technet.com/b/kevinholman/archive/2009/12/21/tuning-tip-do-you-have-monitors-constantly-flip-flopping.aspx
You could tackle each alert and tune as you get them but if you want to be more productive run some of the alert reports and have a look at where the noise is coming from. You will probably find a handful of culprits.
Also if your getting a lot of Powershell scrips failing or timing out or wmi failing, these sometimes are just random failures if the server is to busy or backup running or AV. One of the steps I have taken is to make these alerts informational and
then have our operations team check once a day for any problematic servers that are reporting multiple issues or specif scripts failing multiple times.
http://blogs.technet.com/b/kevinholman/archive/2009/06/29/getting-lots-of-script-failed-to-run-alerts-wmi-probe-failed-execution-backward-compatibility-script-error.aspx
Its a big task if this hasn't been actively done and will take some time. (Once it has been done keep reviewing regularly)
Cheers,
Martin

SCOM 2012 - How does SQL MP "know" which instances are available and active?

Using SCOM 2012 R2 with Microsoft's SQL MP 6.5.1.
Getting alerts occasionally for issues with SQL instances which are later found to be not active any more or removed from the SQL server.
Can someone explain how the MP determines which SQL instances are available? Is it a matter of simply reading folder structures on the various mount points, reading registry? Much appreciated for any tips.

SCOM SQL MP will using discovery to discovery SQL instance. Once the SQL instance is discovery, the SQL instance object persist in the database even though the SQL instance is removed.
Solution:
To clean up the objects you can run the Remove-SCOMDisabledClassInstance Powershell cmdlet. Then all the relationships that involve objects related to a disabled discovery is deleted.

How to create a group in SCOM 2012 R2 based on SCCM Collection?

Is there a way to create a group in SCOM 2012 R2 based on sccm collection? I am planning to use that group for maintenance mode.
Thanks, Samer

Hi,
I think you could query all the collectin members from SCCM database then use powershell to add them to a specific OU.

How to configure windows services alerts in SCOM 2012 for all agent servers. For eg, Terminal Services, Netlogon, RPC etc..

Hi,
I need to configure different windows services alerts in SCOM 2012. Below are some of the windows services I need to monitor through SCOM.
Serivce: Windows Management Instrumentation
Service: Netlogon
Service: Remote Procedure Call (RPC)
Service: Server Service
Service: Terminal Services
Service: Windows Time
Service: Workstation
Service : WWW Publishing Service
Could some one please assist or share me the details, how to configure these services for windows agent servers.
Thanks..
Regards, Rajeev Parambil

Hi,
A certain set of services are monitored by default on all agents:
DNS Client
DHCP Client
RPC
Workstation
Server
For all the other services you could create a service monitor.
A nice blog series outlining this process can be found here: http://www.bictt.com/blogs/bictt.php/2011/03/16/scom-monitoring-a-service-part1
It's doing common things uncommonly well that brings succes. Check out my SCOM link blog:

SCCM 2012 Software Update Management for Windows Servers and how to automatic set SCOM maintenance mode?

Hi,
We planning to go one level higher to automat and have more dynamic Software Update Management for Windows Servers. We have SCCM 2012 R2, SCOM 2012 R2 and SCO 2012 R2.
Our plan is to pur server in an AD-Group to get Update Schedule, from the servers will be importet to an Collection for Automatic Update and reboot. If I understand Everything right SCOM can't read AD-Group and put then in an Schedule maintenance mode. SCOM
can read reg value as exempel.
IS there any smar way to make the SCOM Maintenance Mode Schedule dynamic?
I found this
http://www.scom2k7.com/scom-2012-maintenance-mode-scheduler/?
/SaiTech

You could use Orchestrator to put the servers from a specific collection, or AD group, in maintenance mode in SCOM. For an example see:
