SCOM 2012 Unix/linux agents authentication method

Hi everybody
We have an environment including SCOM 2012 SP1, 10 windows server, 40 linux servers and 10 HP-UX servers. all of them are joined a trusted domain. I know the authentication method between windows agents and management server is kerberos. but about linux
and HP-UX servers? I have read :
"UNIX and Linux agent monitoring in Operations Manager requires certificates to secure the SSL communication channel between the Management Servers and agents. The
Operations Manager UNIX/Linux agent is a very lightweight agent implementation, comprising a CIM Object Manager (OpenPegasus) and CIM Providers.  There are two
protocols involved in the communication between the Management Server and the UNIX/Linux agent:  ssh and WS-Management."
Now I want to secure the Unix/Linux agents authentication and communication to RMS. some questions:
1- how much secure and credible is current authentication method? and in a high secure environment can I trust SCOM self signed Certificates?
2- Considering this point that Unix/linux computers are joined to active directory domain and are using Kerberos to authenticate, can I use this authentication method between RMS and linux Agents? 
3- if I make a decision to use certificates should I use gateway server? (considering all servers and RMS are in same trusted domain)
any other suggestion?
Thanks in advance

  • SCOM 2012 R2 UR4 upgrade question - where exactly is the UNIX/Linux agent?

    I am practicing the UR4 on a test |SCOM environment (my first upgrade) and our UNIX Admins have requested the "UNIX/Linux agent" so they can create packages to upgrade the UNIX/Linux agents when the time comes. 
    I have downloaded all the UR4 updates/software. Where exactly is the agent for UNIX/Linux machines?
    I opened the "Update Rollup 4 for Microsoft System Center 2012 R2 - Operations Manager Agent (KB2992020)" folder and I saw the following agents:
    amd64-agent.msp
    i386-agent.msp
    Are one of these the UNIX/Linux agents?
    I know I'm overlooking something here since this is my first time. Any assistance is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks

    Hello,
    After deploy UR4: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2992020
    Installation instructions for Operations Manager - UNIX and Linux Monitoring (Management Pack Update)
    To install the updated monitoring packs and agents for UNIX and Linux operating systems, follow these steps:
    Apply Update Rollup 4 to your System Center 2012 R2 Operations Manager environment.
    Download the
    updated management packs
          (http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=9f947878-6bf6-48a1-adb1-3cc4c2e5d4af)    
    for System Center 2012 R2.
    Install the management pack update package to extract the management pack files.
    Import the updated management pack for each version of Linux or UNIX that you are monitoring in your environment.
    Upgrade each agent to the latest version by using either the Update-SCXAgent Windows PowerShell cmdlet or the UNIX/Linux Agent Upgrade Wizard in the Administration pane of the Operations Console.

  • Show Running Rules and Monitors for this Health Service task for Unix/Linux agents?

    I know there is a way to do this for Windows agents, but is there a way to do this for Unix/Linux agents?  When I click on the agent I dont see the option in the task pane.  Is there something else that I can use?

    SCOM 2007R2 unix/linux service monitor setup - cannot discover service under /etc/init.d

    Can you give a few more details on what you have tried, and what didn't work for you? Were you stepping through the wizard to monitor a Linux/UNIX service and something went wrong? Or did you successfully create the service monitor in the wizard, but it
    didn't trigger if the monitored process terminated?

  • Where is unix/linux agent located on scom 2012 r2 server

    hey there,
    my boss tried to install scom unix agent manually, and asked me where the unix agent located on scom 2012 r2 server.
    Is it "GetOSVersion.sh" the one he looks for? If it is not, then wherw it is located
    I'm a Windows guy and have no idea what that .sh file is. Please help~~

    The "GetOSVersion.sh" is a script that is first executed when you try to push an agent out to
    a unix/linux server. It then tells SCOM what version of the agent it needs to download and install.
    As for the location:
    Management Server: \System Center Operations Manager\Server\AgentManagement\UnixAgents\DownloadedKits
    Gateway Server: \System Center Operations Manager\Gateway\AgentManagement\UnixAgents\DownloadedKits
    I suggest to push the agent out vs manual install as you then don't need to worry about manually signing certificates/installing agent. Its saves considerable amount of
    time and your then managing your agents from a central location. 
    Oh and as Steve mentioned make sure you download the Unix Management pack bundle (MPB) and not from the online catalog. This is due to the MPB is what actually contains the agents where as the catalog is just the management packs.
    Cheers,
    Martin

  • Operations Manager 2012 R2 Unix/Linux agents installation

    Hi!
    I want to monitor some Linux (RH6) servers with Operations manager 2012 R2. I successfully imported necessary management packs… and then I’m lost. I cannot discover Linux clients
    from console. And I can’t find good guidance how to deploy and manage Linux clients. Can anyone direct me to any step-by-step guidance?
    And, do I need certificates on SCOM and on Linux clients?
    Thanks,
    UV

    To discover and monitor linux client, you can refer to below link
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh230722.aspx
    For Importing Management of linux (RH6), you will need to download management of linux from below link

    Serivce: Windows Management Instrumentation
    Service: Netlogon
    Service: Remote Procedure Call (RPC)
    Service: Server Service
    Service: Terminal Services
    Service: Windows Time

    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.

  • Linux Agent installer location

    Hi SCOM community,
    My aim is to manually install SCOM agents on different Linux machines, the purpose is to create templates for a Windows Azure Pack deployment.
    Anyway, i found many blogs and articles describing how to install the agents, but i'm not able to find the agent installer. the "scx..." files. I looked a "C:\ProgramFiles\Microsoft SC 2012 R2\OperationsManager\Server\AgentManagement\UnixAgents"
    but this folder is empty. Even after the installation of the UNIX MP (around 400 MB), the folder is still empty.
    Please, where can i find or download those agent files ?
    Thanks
    Regards, Samir Farhat Infrastructure Consultant

    Samir,
    One further comment, as you mentioned that you would preinstall the OpsMgr agent for use in Azure Pack templates...
    When the OpsMgr UNIX/Linux agent is installed, a post-install step runs a utility to generate a certificate that will later be signed by the OpsMgr server. This certificate must have the hostname/domain name of the computer accurately represented. 
    When you preinstall the OpsMgr agent in a VHD for use in a VM template, the VHD will have a certificate referencing the name of the template, and not the hostname/domain name after the template has been deployed.  In order to regenerate the certificate
    with the current hostname/domain name of the deployed VM, you will need to run the command:
    /opt/microsoft/scx/bin/tools/scxsslconfig -f
    You can simply add this as a RunOnce command in your VM template or ResExtPkg to force this to run after the hostname/domain name have been set during VM deployment.

    No, the SCOM online UNIX/Linux MP stuff is only for OM 2007 R2.  All the latest UNIX/Linux MP(B)s for SCOM 2012 and above come from the link below. There are multiple download msi's so make sure you grab the one for your version of SCOM 2012.
    http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=29696
    The current release is UR5 but UR6 will be coming out very soon, within the next week or two at the latest.
    Note that you can generally install the latest MP(B)s on lower UR versions of SCOM. We try to keep them independent but every once and awhile there are bits that require you to be at a specific UR on SCOM as well. We update the release notes with the details
    as needed.

  • Recommendations for SCOM 2012 -- 2012 R2 migration

       Hello to all. I have a customer that has SCOM 2012 in its IT environment but uses it barely and does not have any documentation. I proposed to install a new Manament Group (MG) and "reboot" to a paralell SCOM 2012 R2 considering the
    use of new features present on 2012 R2. 
       Questions:
       1- Does SCOM support a side by side migration strategy , like SCCM 2007 R2 --> SCCM 2012 R2 that takes its main source objects and bring them to the new separated Management Group (the SCOM 2012 R2)?
       2- Considering that all regular member servers are monitored by SCOM 2012 (all have agents installed), what is the recommended way to to install SCOM 2012 R2 agents on them (multi homed deploy, deploy a new agent and it will upgrade/remove the
    already existing SCOM 2012, etc)?
      3- Does SCOM allows a approach to install a SCOM 2012 R2 on already existing SCOM 2012 MG and "migrate" its objects to new server and after that decomission SCOM 2012 (the old version)?
      Your inputs and references will be very welecomed.

       2- Considering that all regular member servers are monitored by SCOM 2012 (all have agents installed), what is the recommended way to to install SCOM 2012 R2 agents on them (multi homed deploy, deploy a new agent and it will upgrade/remove the
    already existing SCOM 2012, etc)?
    Yes. You can built SCOM 2012 R2 and do side-by-side migration.
