Certificate Template - SCOM Gateway Server

Hi
I am using AD Domain level 2003 in my organization. Is there any particular requirement for certificate template to provide authentication between SCOM Management server and SCOM Gateway server.
I tried a lot but I am getting authentication issues.
Any solution would be really appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

SNMP Monitoring behind SCOM Gateway Server

Hi All
Is it possible to monitor Network devices / SNMP that sit behind a SCOM Gateway server? If so, how do these get discovered?
I have a need to monitor devices like HP printers, WAP, JetDirect cards, EPOS equipment etc. on a site that doesn't have SCOM on-premise.
Are there any limitations to this?
Thanks

Hi,
Yes, it is possible. when you create discovery, you may specify that it should run from gateway server.
On the device you want to monitor, set your SNMP public community string to point to the IP address of the SCOM Gateway server. In the SCOM Administration console, choose Network Devices in the Discovery Managment Wizard choose network device and click next.
In the next screen enter the IP address of the network device you want to monitor and under the mangment server drop down choose the gateway server who’s IP you entered in the SNMP string earlier.
Here is a similar thread for you reference:

In addition, you may check is there any management pack for your devices and import them into your management group.

SCOM Gateway Server Issue

Hi All
I am having an issue related with my LAB Gateway server with SCOM 2012 SP1
I am having 2 Management server and 3 gateway server in my LAB. Now I am trying to install a new Gateway server. But its not showing in Management server list. Its showing as a SCOM Client. have any one faced this issue or any idea.
Your earlier response is appreciated.

Hi,
Whether the gateway server is listed under pending management, if it is, try to remove it from here before running the approval.
Please also go through the below similar thread for more details:
SCOM 2012 R2 Gateway installation error and no System Center Management server after install
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/ce6d0a73-c31d-4c26-85d4-d3cce35d48c3/scom-2012-r2-gateway-installation-error-and-no-system-center-management-server-after-install?forum=operationsmanagerdeployment
Please follow the below steps:
1) Validate that the gateway server can ping the Management Server that it will need to communicate with and can telnet to port 5723. Also validate that the OpsMgr Management Server can ping the Gateway server. If traffic doesn’t route between these systems,
or they cannot resolve each others names, or they cannot communicate on port 5723 the Gateway will not function.
2) Install the gateway server from the OpsMgr media (Gateway management server).
When installing, choose the Management Server that we have determined will be the primary Management Server for gateway servers in the environment and configure the gateway to run as local system.
3) Next if required in the OpsMgr console we delete the agent from pending management if it appears in that view.
4) Perform the approval of the gateway by transferring the Microsoft.EnterpriseManagement.GatewayApprovalTool.exe from the installation media to the appropriate path to run it from (c:\program files\System Center Operations Manager 2012\Server is the default
location)

SCOM Agents in DMZ via Gateway Server

I need to monitor all the web servers in our DMZ by placing a Gateway Server between them and SCOM RMS.
Jus a simple Question I have ................do I need to install certificates on all my web servers in DMZ to talk to SCOM Gateway Server or not????
If I need certificates on all my DMZ webservers then what is the purpose of a gateway server?
thanx

Hi There,
The certificate installation depends on the scenario.
Scenario 1# If the Gateway server is in domain but, the servers in DMZ are not part of domain. We need certificate for each server to create Trust with Gateway server. Otherwise Gateway may not authenticate agent servers due to domain mismatch. And AD authentication
is must while installing Agents.
Scenario 2# If the Gateway Server and Agent Servers are in same domain in DMZ. In this scenario we need to have certificate only for Agent Servers not for Agent Servers, as the agents will be authenticated using AD (due to same domain).
Scenario 3# If none of the Gateway server or Agent Server are in Domain. This case we need to issue certificate for each Server, including Gateway Server. This scenario the Gateway server will work as a mediator for communication only(in a Manner of speaking).
Be sure that Gateway server concept can be avoided with servers DMZ and not in domain, but this will increase the security risk by authorizing multiple endpoint rules in firewall.
Below link will give you more info about Gateway servers and its uses.

Siebel chart server configuration

Hi Experts,
After installing chart server on siebel servers, we configure the parameters DSChartServer and DSDChartImageFormat under ServerDataSrc profile. Is it possible to have multiple chart servers installed on different siebel servers on the same enterprise and have them configured under ServerDataSrc profile parameters? We need this clarity to check if we can setup high availability for chart servers or not. Incase one chart server is down then will other chart server be able to pick up the load and proceed further?
Thanks,

Gateway server NICs question

Hi,
I want to deploy a SCOM gateway server, but I am not sure, would this server have multi homed NICs? IE a NIC in the LAN and a NIC in the DMZ/WAN.
Thanks

SCOM doesn't need 2 NIC, It work with 1 NIC. Scom Gateway used to allow monitoring in another forest.

Siebel Gateway Name Server Configuration Wizard returns "Execution failed"

Hi,
I am installing Siebel 8.1.1.1 on Linux platform and now having problem while trying to configure Siebel Gateway Name Server.
Steps done:
1) DB instance prepared
2) Created Siebel installation image
3) Installed Siebel server and configured Gateway name server (the wizard started automatically as part of the installation). Skip configuration of Enterprise and SWSE Logical profile
4) Ran DB Configuration Wizard for the primary language - successfully. Import repository-add language - successfully.
5) Trying to Wizard "Configure Enterprise" - failed with "Execution failed"
Here I thought that probably Gateway Nameserver was not configured and decided to remove the Gateway and create it from scratch.
Unfortunately this time the Gateway configuration failed. Also with message"Execution failed"
Here are the errors I got in the log files sw_cfg_util*.log

Searching in Metalink and Google were fruitless..
Thank you in advance.

Just in case anybody bumps in this thread:
The problem in my case was solved according with Oracle Note "Delete and create the "Siebel Server" via Configuration Wizard on Linux, it failed. [ID 880562.1]"

Reproduce steps:
- confirm that siebel server was created before, and is stopping.
- create sh env and enter the following command to remove the Siebel Server.
+$ cd $(SiebelServerRoot)+
+$ . ./cfgenv.sh+
+$ cd $(SiebelServerRoot)/bin+
+$ ./ssincfgw+
- select "3 - Remove Existing Configuration".
- complete the configuration wizard.
- enter the following command to create the Siebel Server.
+$ cd $(SiebelServerRoot)+
+$ . ./cfgenv.sh+
+$ cd $(SiebelServerRoot)/bin+
+$ ./ssincfgw+
- select "1 - Create New Configuration".
- continue inputs to finish and execute the configration.
+==> you'll find "Execution Failed".+
Cause
AddSrvrRegistryEntry section shown in the log is the command for registering the Windows Service, and it is no need to execute on Linux env. However, it is executed and it failied.
Solution
You can do either of follows,
+(1) Uninstall and Install the Siebel Server again.+
+(2) The section to execute the Windows registeration command is specified on $(SiebelServerRoot)/admin/common.scm, line 2475-2477.+
+[Step]+
Name = AddSrvrRegistryEntry
Type = RunProg %%SiebelRoot%%%%OSDirSeparator%%bin%%OSDirSeparator%%siebctl ' -r %%SiebelRoot%% -q -S siebsrvr -i "%%SiebelEnterprise%%:%%SiebelServer%%" -a -g "-g %%SiebelGateway%% -e %%SiebelEnterprise%% -s %%SiebelServer%% -u %%Username%%" -e %%Password%% '
So, delete the AddSrvrRegistryEntry section from common.scm, and execute Configuration Wizard again.

2. Import those certificates into the target computers by using the MOMCertImport.exe tool.
3. Distribute the Microsoft.EnterpriseManagement.GatewayApprovalTool.exe to the management server.
4. Run the Microsoft.EnterpriseManagement.GatewayApprovalTool.exe tool to initiate communication between the management server and the gateway

Gateway server and Management server in SCOM 2012

What are the main Different between Gateway server and Management server in SCOM 2012?
I have referred this , is there anything ?
http://blogs.technet.com/b/momteam/archive/2008/02/19/10-reasons-to-use-a-gateway-server.aspx

1) Management server can write data , gathered from agent, directly into operations manager database. Gateway server should forward data, collected from managed agent to management server.
2) In a unturst environment for example workgroup or untrust domain, and you do not want to deploy a certificate to every monitored agent, you should deploy gateway server rather than managment server.

Gateway Server in SCOM

Hi experts,
I need your advice on the below point
* It is recommended to keep Management server in the same datacenter. But in case if we got another datacenter with less network bandwidth, can we place GATEWAY server there though its a trusted zone. Please clarify.
Regards, Pratap

Hello Pratap,
If you need a gateway server, then it has to be in the another DataCenter and the agents in that same datacenter will point to the Gateway Server. The best part about this will be you do not need to install certificates on each server in that second data
center. All you need to do is configure certificates on the Gateway Server and the Management Server, where the Gateway Server will be pointing to.
And Since Bandwidth is an issue, if the agents from different datacenter point to the MS (in another DC) directly, then it will take up a lot of bandwidth for each agent however, if the communication is only between the Gateway Server and MS then that should
utilize less bandwidth.
Hope this helps!

Remote Desktop "Bypass RD gateway server for local addresses" no longer working in Windows 8

Hi,
After installing windows 8, it seems like the "Bypass RD gateway server for local addresses" is no longer working.
In Windows 7, when the option is checked, I could have the server name set always and the client will automatically detect whether to use the RD gateway or not. For example, from my house, if I am connecting to a computer at my work, which requires
the RD gateway, it will automatically pops up the dialog for authentication method. However, if I connect to a computer in my home network, it will just automatically connects without asking authentication for the RD gateway.
However, after installing windows 8, this does not seem to work as expected anymore. The option is checked but the Windows Security dialog pops up in both situations and so i have to either save the rdp file locally and pin it to the taskbar or switch between
disabling and enabling the RD gateway whenever I need to connect to different machines.
Is this a regression in Windows 8? Is anyone else experiencing the same issue?
Thanks

Another way to resolve this issue for me, beside of configuring RDP to connect directly to server also on unmanaged network, will be to turn the "wifi" subnet in a managed network, as the "wired" subnet is.
The differences between thoses to subnets, dynamically assigned by the same DHCP server, are:
The "wifi" is in a private IP range, the "wired" is in a public IP range
There's an ACL on the "wifi" subnet, not on the "wired"
The next step is to compare frames send/received when on the two networks. Something will likely tell for the network to be managed.
Beside, I'm still searching informations about NLA, which is responsible for setting a nework as managed or not.
Here are some clues:
