HP Operations Manager integration pack 7.1 for SCORCH Error

Hi
I am using the HP Operations Manager integration pack 7.1 for SCORCH this is working well sending messages in both directions from SCOM2012 to HP OM and from HP OM to SCOM with the get message/acknowledge message objects but the monitor message object does
not work at all. No errors are logged and we can see the traffic in a network trace. The monitor message object just never triggers.
has anyone else seen this issue ?
Thanks

The problem that I had was with the HP OM función "Monitor Message". Web service didn´t response Orchestrator.
After all I fond the solution, If you Want the Orchestrator to monitor Messages from HPOM you should
define a filter by message group on the activity "monitor Message";
In this case that's because HPOM has the visibility of the user, configured through the atribute "Message Group".
I hope will be useful.
Regards

  • VMM (2012 R2) PRO/Operations Manager Integration Requires Named Instance for SSAS -- Which is Great in a NOT Clustered Environment

    This is my third or maybe 4th time posting this question... surely I can't be the only person that has run into this issue...
    Subject more or less captures the essence of my question... I have a clustered SQL 2012 (SP2) environment that runs on 3 nodes (active-passive-passive), one of which runs Analysis Services. As I've come to learn (and likely everyone already knows) SSAS in a
    clustered configuration is _ONLY_ accessible using the hostname, FQDN, or VIP. Addressing the named instance results in a failure (I think this is partially a SQL browser bug as looking closely at the requests to SSAS using a named instance results in the
    browser issuing a bogus TCP port where no service is actually running). Additionally, not providing a named instance in the VMM console UI results in an error message:
    Please enter SSAS instance name
    Would greatly appreciate any guidance on this issue. Thank you.

    Since you're on your 4th time of asking, let me at least say I'll try to make this your last.
    While I haven't got an answer this exact minute, I'll look into it tomorrow as I have access to a clustered SSAS that I can play with.
    Probably the reason no-ones answered so far is that for VMM the SSAS instance must be on the same instance as the SCOM Reporting Services and since that can't be clustered most will install standalone.

  • ORACLE PROJECT PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT INTEGRATION PACK FOR PRIMAVERA P6 & EBS

    Hi,
    Where can I get the software ORACLE PROJECT PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT INTEGRATION PACK FOR PRIMAVERA P6 and Oracle E-Business Suite?
    Suggest me.
    Regards,
    Mini

    It should be possible. However I will suggest you get in touch with your local sales representative for clarifying licensing policy. It may require you to purchase full license of AIA foundation pack and SOA suite.
    Oracle is expected to release new PIP solution for P6 and R12. You may want to wait for that. Search the forum and you will find lot of threads with details.

  • Integration Pack Connector settings wiped and replaced

    Greetings all,
    I've just experienced a rather concerning issue and have hit a bit of a dead-end trying to identify the root cause.
    We have Orchestrator 2012 R2 with several 3rd party integration packs from codeplex such as ones for Sharepoint, AD, Config Manager etc.
    Sharepoint IP - http://orchestrator.codeplex.com/releases/view/75877
    The other night several runbooks stopped working and we found that ALL of the Integration Pack configuration settings for our SharePoint IP had been completely wiped and two completely unknown entries configured there instead.
    From what I can tell, "ybusa.net" refers to YellowBook, which isn't even remotely related to us. The username and Sharepoint site URL are also completely unknown to us. The closest I reference I can find is that Yellowbook is mentioned a few times
    as a reference customer for Opalis, and this codeplex post - http://scorch.codeplex.com/discussions/455038
    I tried searching the sourcecode of the Sharepoint integration pack but could find no reference to ybusa or YellowBook.
    The best guess I can come up with is that an integration pack we are using was written by someone while they were working for Yellowbook, and somehow there is a bit of "default" configuration data buried in the IP or a common binary somewhere that
    was triggered somehow and caused this to happen.
    It was not the only IP that had configuration settings lost and replaced with strange "default" entries, but not all of the IP's were affected (e.g. official Microsoft ones). So I was wondering if there is a connection between the author of the
    impacted IP's and YellowBook.
    We were able to restore the database to a point just before the change happened and everything is now back to normal, but as we can find no trigger, cause or connection to why it happened at all, this is now making us rather nervous about the fact it may
    happen again.
    We've been using these same IP's for quite some time now (>6 months) and there also have been no updates of SCORCH or any Integration packs performed in quite some time.
    Any thoughts or suggestions that might help solve this mystery would be most welcome.
    Regards,
    Scott.

    We have a answer - almost forgot to post a follow up about what happened.
    The most important thing I learned from this is that importing Configuration configurations will entirely replace any config data that is already present for an Integration Pack.
    The culprit was in fact the import of the "SC2012 Solution Runbook Examples" which also applies settings across several Integration Packs.
    http://orchestrator.codeplex.com/releases/view/86195
    Digging through that code you can see the references to YellowBook.
    A colleague has been testing export and import of his own runbooks (which I had checked and cleared as OK), but somewhere along the way he selected the Solutions one. At the time he didn't realise as it imported into a test sub folder that was being frequently
    deleted and re-created. He has now been banished to the DEV environment pending a rigorous re-education program :)
    So from this I now know:
    We have a pretty good DR capability for Orchestrator
    Importing has "Global Configurations" enabled by default and will REPLACE all existing config data for matching IPs. The documentation guides I've written for the people here say to unselect the import of Global configurations. That unfortunately
    is no protection against Orchestrators desire to make it enabled by default
    even more about the Orchestrator DB schema and how to follow the internal object GUIDs to find all the connections they have to each other
    Orchestrator still has many many quirks that really need Microsoft to spend some time improving on
    Thank you all for your feedback and suggestions. 

  • Operations Manager not updating IP phone location changes

    We have Cisco Unified Operations Manager and we noticed that for some time  IP Phone location changes were not registered and updated.
    There are couple of phones in All IP Phones/Lines list which are listed as still connected to old switches, while actually moved to completely new switch on different location .
    Also - in   Devices>Device Management>Inventory Collection>IP Phone       IP Phone Collection Status is always :  "Discovery in progress..."   with  Last Collection Start Time   and  Last Collection End Time  from couple of months ago...
    We have discovered two old bugs CSCsw26833 and CSCsv33965, but Restart PIFServer, pdterm PIFServer followed by pdexec SRSTServer and checking of netstat connection  did not change anything...
    What could be a problem, how can we start IP Phone collection?

    Hey George, thanks for the reply!
    Yes, you are absolutely correct. If I set Device Mobility Mode from Default to Off, the phone re-registers and the correct time for that time zone is displayed...!
    Awesome, thanks again George. Much appreciated!
    Thanks Again,

  • VRealize Operations Management Packs for Lenovo Compute and Lenovo Network Switches

     Lenovo Systems Management Community Members:
    Blue Medora is currently developing a two new and distinct VMware vRealize Operations Management Packs aimed at Lenovo datacenter technology -- a vROps MP for Lenovo Compute as well as a vROps MP for Lenovo Network Switches. Our target is to release both vROps MPs in the September timeframe. Both of the MPs will support vROps v6+. If vROps integration with Lenovo Compute and/or Lenovo Network Switches is something that is relevant to you, our product management team is very interested in talking to you about what aspects of the Lenovo-based compute and network infrastructure you like to see surfaced in vROps, models of Lenovo servers and network switches your your organization most commonly leverages, as well as any specific troubleshooting / diagnostic use cases you have around Lenovo compute and network.
    Please drop us a line at [email protected] if you'd like to participate in a pre-release program for the vROps MPs for Lenovo Compute and Lenovo Network Switches.

    Sorry for being a bit slow in responding. Adapting the settings for my wired ethernet adapter as rdhw suggested solved the problem. (But since I am not using any wake-on features, I simply opted to turn them off instead.)
    Interestingly, I had previously looked at these settings in the BIOS and turned them off there (forgot to mention this), but it appears the Device Manager settings were overriding the BIOS settings.
    So, I still find Access Connections to be slow (it will take maybe half a minute or so to figure out what is happening when I switch between wireless and wired connections), and also getting the X200 to go to sleep takes more time than it used to do (it used to go to sleep momentarily when I, say, closed the lid, whereas now it will need to think for 10-15 seconds first), but at least everything works reasonably well now.
    Which is nice, and I don't want to break anything that I don't have the time to fix, so I think I will leave it at this for the time being. Thanks so much for the help (and for the prompt reply)!

  • MS System Center Operations Manager 2010 Download required for Upgrade from SCOM 2007 R2 (Select)

    We need the download of SCOM 2012 without Service Pack1.
    Upgrade from SCOM 2007 R2 (select license) fails while upgrade check with error: Logs shows "At least one of the following applications is installed on this computer. Due
    to incompatibility with System Center 2012 - Operations Manager, these applications must be uninstalled."
    Upgrade was started from dos elevated prompt with modified parameters like this:
    setup.exe /silent /upgrade
    /AcceptEndUserLicenseAgreement:1
    /UseLocalSystemDASAccount
    /DataReaderUser:<domain\user>
    /DataReaderPassword:<password>
    Research in internet and we found another person with same issue, which reports that direct upgrade from SCOM 2007 R2 to SCOM 2012 SP1 is not possible but if upgrade is done over
    SCOM 2012 to SCOM 2012 SP1 it succeeds.
    Unfortunately, we don't find any downloads for the first release of System Center 2012  e.g. Operations Manager.
    Everything shows Service Pack 1 or the newer R2.
    Who can help?

    Our “Recommended” rolling upgrade path looks like the following:
    SCOM 2007R2 CU4+ > SCOM 2012 RTM UR2+ >

  • Operations manager failed to run a wmi query for wmi events (0x800706ba)

    Hi everyone,
    I've been working on this issue for a while and I am still no closer to finding out what the problem is.  If anybody can offer any other advice or things to check, I'm all ears.
    I'm running SCOM 2012 R2 with UR2, and the Cluster Management Pack v6.0.7063.0
    My problem is on one particular batch of cluster servers where I am getting the following error.
    Name: Operations Manager failed to run a WMI query for WMI events
    Alert Description:
    Module was unable to enumerate the WMI data
    Error: 0x800706ba

    I am getting this alert regardless of whether I run the Windows Cluster Action Account as Local System, or as a domain user with full local admin privileges on all the cluster nodes.
    When looking at the management pack and the workflow in particular (Microsoft.Windows.Cluster.Node.StateMonitoring), I can see that it's trying to access
    MSCluster_Node in the root\MSCLUSTER WMI namespace.

    I can confirm that I am able to browse the MSCluster_Node class locally, as well as remotely using WMIEXPLORER and WBEMTEST,
    however it only works when I set the Authentication Level to
    Packet Privacy.  If I do not select Packet Privacy, a WMI event log error 5605 is logged on the remote servers application log that says...
    The root\mscluster namespace is marked with the RequiresEncryption flag.  Access to this namespace might be denied if the script or application does not have the appropriate authentication level.  Change the authentication level to Pkt_Privacy
    and run the script or application again.
    I can confirm that all firewalls are turned off, and there are no firewalls between the management servers and the agents in question.  AV exclusions have been done and appear to be in place.  The nodes are all Windows 2008 R2 with SP1.  As
    far as I can tell there is plenty of memory available on each of the nodes in question (50%+) of RAM is available. 
    If I manually run the "Discover the Windows Server 2008 R2 Cluster Components" task in the Cluster Service State section of the management pack in the Monitoring Pane in the console, on the nodes in question - the discovery runs successfully.
    Does anybody have any other ideas or suggestions I could try?
    Many thanks in advance,
    Noel.

  • Agent Failover and AD Integration in Operations Manager

    Hi
    I got some queries around SCOM agent failover and AD Integration:
    Does the discovery wizard differentiates between domain-joined and workgroup systems in terms of deploying agent on them?
    Why do we ever need Active Directory Integration with Operations Manager as described here
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh212922.aspx
    - is it required for non-domain joined Windows systems or any other systems? All the other documents I read are saying that Windows agents can failover to other available MS in resource pool if their currently assigned MS fails and fails back automatically
    as soon as it comes back online.
    Is the automatic failover applicable to agents installed using client push (Discovery Wizard) Or it applies to agents installed manually using MOMAgent.msi?

    but doesn’t seems to be having grip on it so far. Request some details on the above points.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    For the first question, I don't think we can use discovery wizard to install agent on non-domain joined computers. Please refer to the below links for how to deploy SCOM agent to non-domain computers:
    http://blogs.technet.com/b/quenguyen/archive/2011/07/13/monitoring-non-domain-servers-using-scom.aspx
    http://blogs.technet.com/b/stefan_stranger/archive/2012/04/17/monitoring-non-domain-members-with-om-2012.aspx
    For the second question, as we can read from the below link:
      http://blogs.technet.com/b/meamcs/archive/2013/05/10/is-ad-integration-or-manual-scom-agents-required-to-allow-automatic-windows-agent-failover-between-multiple-scom-management-servers.aspx
    SCOM windows agents automatic failover does not require AD integration or PowerShell scripting or Configuration Manager or manual agents installation specially for small to medium environment and agents distribution between different SCOM management servers
    can be accomplished through push agents wizard, and windows agents failover can be simply verified from event viewer.

  • Management pack version difference in System Center - Operations Manager 2012 R2 - Help us.

    Hi,
    I have SC Operation manager 2012 r2 in my environment. It has managed with multiple management servers.
    I have import some unsealed MPs through Ops SDK code and by manually using Operation manager console.
    Here with i tried to install higher version of MPs and upgrade its version from 1.1.0.0 to 6.0.0.0.
    case 1:
    After successful installation of some MPs and check Operation manager console, it showing newly upgraded version(6.0.0.0).
    Then i have import that MP and checked its version inside it showing 1.1.0.0(older version).
    Here the imported MP has 1.1.0.0 version and console showing its version as 6.0.0.0.
    Why it showing different versions in imported MP(inside xml)  and Operations manager console view?
    case 2:
    After that i tried to import other MPs using console. But it showing below error;
    Verification failed with 1 errors:
    Error 1:
    Found error in 2|Monitoring.ActiveDirectory_server|6.0.0.0|Monitoring.ActiveDirectory_server|| with message:
    Could not load management pack [ID=Monitoring.Base, KeyToken=9e875220a3987e0b, Version=6.0.0.0]. The management pack was not found in the store.
    : Version mismatch. The management pack ([Monitoring.Base, 9e875220a3987e0b, 1.1.0.0]) requested from the database was version 6.0.0.0 but the actual version available is 1.1.0.0.
    Its happened in  multiple management servers scenario. So Is any possibility to happen because of multiple management servers scenario?. There is no issues in this same MPs while i tried in single management server. These same MPs are imported and working
    fine in single management server scenario.
    Help me to solve these 2 issues!!
    Thanks,
    satheesh

    1) At first, you should make sure that the imported MP has correct version. I will open the XML of the imported MP and check its current version e.g.
    When you open the xml file of imported MP, the version number is shown as
    <Manifest>
        <Identity>
            <ID>Microsoft.SystemCenter.Visualization.Component.Library.Resources</ID>
            <Version>1.0.0.2</Version>
        <Identity>
        <Name>Resources library</Name>
        <References>
            <Reference Alias="System">
            <ID>System.Library</ID>
            <Version>1.0.0.1</Version>
    From the above sample, the imported MP version number is 1.0.0.2.
    2) I am using operation console to import the management pack and check the version number in operations console whether it is updated to new version 1.0.0.2
    3) Using operations console to export the MP which has imported in step 1) and open it to check what is the version number of MP. Make sure that the version is 1.0.0.2
    4) If the above procedure provide a prefer match of version number, re-import all problematic MP.
    5) At last, you may use the following SQL to check whether the correct version number of MP is stored in DB successful
    select version, friendlyname from managementpackview where friendlyname like 'Microsoft.SystemCenter.Visualizatio%'

  • Basic Network Monitoring for Cisco Operation Manager 2012

    Hello,
    Please bear with me as i'm new the Operations Manager 2012 world. I've just installed operations manager 2012 in our environment and i've setup a network management point. I've discovered my networking gear which is primarily cisco equipment. The devices
    are appearing as CERTIFIED. It appears that they are HEALTHY however in most cases i'm getting some arbitrary monitors. I have a 6509 switch where memory and processor appear to be being monitored out of the box. I'm receiving alerts and everything.
    My question is how do I turn on monitoring for other discovered components. I seem to understand I can make SNMP monitors under the authoring pane if i know the OID. That sounds like it'd be tedious work for such a simple and basic monitor. However I was
    under the impression I would be able to monitor a lot of these components with a simple click of a button. Is this not the case? I'm primarily interested in monitoring the state and performance of particular interfaces as well as the state of the power supplies
    in our switches. Is there a guide that explains the basic principles of this. What are my options?
    Thanks!
    -Brandon

    Hi,
    You will need to edit the discovery and broaden the range. You may use recursive discovery.
    Recursive discovery will try to discover any other network devices it knows about through its Address Routing Protocol (ARP) table, its IP address table, or the topology Management Information Block (MIB) to grow the network map and present all applicable
    devices to you for monitoring.
    You can also filter out devices that you don't want to be discovered by using properties such as the device type, name, and object identifier (OID). This is a handy option if you wanted to quickly discover all the network devices in your network except,
    a small number or some with a specific criteria.
    In really large networks with a lot of network devices, keep in mind that there is a default limit of 1500 network devices that can be discovered recursively. You can of course tweak this limit to suit your environment if you wish, but for most people, this
    won't be needed.
    More details, please go through the article below:
