SCOM management packs upgrade
Hi,
When we upgrade a management pack in SCOM e.g. the OS management packs, Does it retains the overrides applied on rules and monitors in the previous version or we had to apply the overrides again on the latest imported management pack? Please advice.
Thanks
Daya Ram
Just keep in mind when you upgrade a management pack to read the management pack guide which is bundled with it.
Your overrides will be kept in a different management pack so no worries there but the creator of the MP can change the standard overrides in it's pack which could have an impact on your monitoring.
When upgrading an MP always check the MP guide and especially the "What's new" section to get a quick overview of the different changes in the MP.
It's doing common things uncommonly well that brings succes. Check out my SCOM link blog:

MBAM 2.5 SCOM Management Pack
With the newest release of MBAM 2.5 is there a SCOM management pack?
Or will the original version 1 that has been released work with this?This question was asked shortly after 2.0 came out
in this thread, and the recommendation was to use the MPs for CM, SQL, and IIS... or to create your own custom MP.
Hope this helps,

WF-Workflows in permanent warning state (SCOM Management Pack)
Hi,
We're starting to monitor a small Service Manager 2012 R2 installation with SCOM 2012 R2.
After all discoveries have ran we have a permanent Warning on the Management Server, this warnign relates to the WF Workflows
The Repeats above are from my resetting the health the monitor. If I leave this alone the alert just stays Yellow/warning.
I've done some research into this but have now hit a brick wall and would like some help.
All workflows in the Service manager Workflows/Status pane are in good health.
Investigating further
I found this SQL script to list failed workflows.
SELECT
Rules.RuleName,
Rules.Comment,
Rules.RuleCategory,
Rules.RuleEnabled,
[JobStatusView].Status,
[JobStatusView].TimeScheduled,
[JobStatusView].TimeStarted,
[JobStatusView].TimeFinished,
[JobStatusView].Output,
[JobStatusView].RunningAs,
[JobStatusView].SubmittedBy,
dbo.MySubscriptions.LastModified,
dbo.MySubscriptions.UserSID as LastModifiedBy,
GETUTCDATE() as CurrentTime
FROM dbo.WindowsWorkflowTaskJobStatus
LEFT OUTER JOIN dbo.JobStatusView ON dbo.[JobStatusView].[BatchId] = dbo.[WindowsWorkflowTaskJobStatus].[BatchId]
LEFT OUTER JOIN dbo.MySubscriptions ON dbo.[WindowsWorkflowTaskJobStatus].[RuleId] = dbo.[MySubscriptions].[RuleEntityId]
LEFT OUTER JOIN dbo.BaseManagedEntity ON dbo.WindowsWorkflowTaskJobStatus.BaseManagedEntityId = dbo.BaseManagedEntity.BaseManagedEntityId
LEFT OUTER JOIN dbo.Rules on dbo.WindowsWorkflowTaskJobStatus.RuleId = dbo.Rules.RuleId
WHERE (( dbo.[WindowsWorkflowTaskJobStatus].[Processed] IS NULL AND
( (dbo.[WindowsWorkflowTaskJobStatus].[ErrorMessage] IS NOT NULL)
OR (dbo.[JobStatusView].Status = 3)
OR ((dbo.[JobStatusView].Status = 0
OR dbo.[JobStatusView].Status = 1)
AND (DATEDIFF(MINUTE, dbo.[JobStatusView].TimeScheduled, GETUTCDATE()) >= 25) )
OR( dbo.[JobStatusView].Status = 2) OR( dbo.[JobStatusView].Status is NULL) ) ))
The output of which is
Our Exchange connector appears healthy, it's certainly processing email and no errors relating to it appear in the Operations Manager event log on the SCSM workflow/Management server.
As for MonitoringHostKeepAlive any ideas how to troubleshoot this? Again I see no errors and Service manager appears to be fully functioning.
All help gratefully recieved.This one is bugging me too.
Am tempted to remove the Microsoft.SystemCenter.MonitoringHostKeepAlive management pack:

Converting SCOM Management Packs to excel format
Hi All,
How to convert Management Packs (sealed/unsealed) to MS Excel format?
I know about MP Viewer and MP Author tools which open up the MP and shows its rules/monitors/discoveries/workflows/etc.
But I have some customers who first wish to see the MP in excel formats.
Thanks, S K AgrawalHi,
What additional information would you like to see (the export to excel option in MP viewer is relativley comprehensive)? -

Hi
I have mutiple SCOM Management Servers in my environment. I have to install MPs but I am confused that do we only need to install MPs on a single Mgmt server or on all the Mgmt servers?
Also, I have a distributed environment where SCOM Reporting Server and web console are on different servers. Please suggest if it will affect my environment if I put both of them on the different servers.
Thanks in advance.
Abhinav | MCTS-Server VirtualizationMPs are to be imported through the SCOM operations console. Once imported they will themselves reach out to all the Management Servers in the SCOM group.
To answer the second question, There is no harm in having the reporting role and web consoles on different servers. I too have it that way in many of my SCOM groups.
Hope this helped.
Thanks, S K Agrawal -
SCOM management packs for POS, wireless, printer, scanners
Hi,
We are looking for a solution where we want to integrate monitoring of various devices, that might be used in a typical Retail Store operations, into System Center Operations Manager 2012.
Please let me know how SC OM can support monitoring Point of Sales devices, wireless devices, printers, scanners etc.
Thanks.A lot of it depends on the architecture of your systems, obviously there is the functionality that comes out of the box, but you can extend this by developing your own monitoring. I find mapping out the system in something like visio helps you identify what
needs to be monitored. Generally if you can script some sort of check then you’ll be able to use this to feed into SCOM (using a variety of methods such as the event log, text files or event custom data sources).
It’s difficult to be specific without knowing how the various components make up your system.
I'd map out the system and then post anything you're struggling to monitor.
Hope this helps -
SCOM 2012 Management Packs, Names of Servers they relate to.
hello,
I'm looking to find how I can get existing data from SCOM Management Packs.
I have existing MP importing into SCOM, although I want to know how I find out what named Servers they relate to.
I have been currently been able to view the XML files and look through the code for server names, but want to find out any easier way through SCOM. Is this possible ?
Grateful if you could advise.Hi Rich,
I´n not really sure if i get your question correct but correct me if I´m wrong.
Once a Management Pack is imported into SCOM, It´s then distributed to all of your monitored servers where you´ve installed an agent. When this is done, the agent itself finds out what MP should be used on that particular server. A domain controller for
example will automatically use the AD Management Pack while a SQL server won´t use the AD management pack even though it is distributed to the server.
The easiest way to see which servers are using a specific MP is to look in the "Monitoring" tab in the Operations Console and there drill down to SQL Server MP for example. Then look for SQL Computers and you will see which computers have been discovered
as SQL Server computers.

Dashboards Problem after SCOM 2012 Inplace Upgrade- Missing Stored Procedures
Dears,<o:p></o:p>
After finishing SCOM 2012 in place Upgrade I face a problem on Performance and Service level dashboards, the Upgrade has been finished successfully as shown below
But after I start Dashboards configuration I receive below errors
After troubleshooting I see an error in Event viewer beside the errors on Snapshots above said that
Fault Detail is equal to could not find stored procedure
so I compared Stored Procedures under SCOM data warehouse database with another SCOM 2012 installation (different customer) and i see a lot of Missing Stored Procedures
(all Stored Procedures start with 'SDK.Microsoft_SystemCenter_Visualization are missing)
Here i am stuck, I don’t know what I can do, I have some ideas but i don't know if its will work.<o:p></o:p>
My ideas are:<o:p></o:p>
1. Repair SCOM 2012 Installation (does the repair option will repair the databases)
2. Re import Default SCOM Management packs like (Microsoft.SystemCenter.Visualization.Library.mpb) (does MP contains Stored procedures in the Database)<o:p></o:p>
3. Install Rollup Update (may during installation it will create missing Stored Procedures)
4. Move Stored Procedures from other SCOM server installation
Please advise its strange issue
Appreciate Your help
Note:<o:p></o:p>
Everything is work correctly regarding Raising alerts , generate reports , servers state , reset and recalculate health state, installing and ininstalling agents and others.Hi,
Could you post the error message in forum directly? This snapshot it too fuzzy to know what the exactly meaning is.

Operations Manager 2012 Management Pack Catalog Web Service - Missing Management Packs
I am using SCOM 2012 R2 with UR5 and I see things like Exchange 2013 and Lync 2013 in the catalog when doing an MP import, but some other items like: SQL Server 2012/2014 and SharePoint 2013 are missing. I can download them from the MS download site,
but is this catalog web service being maintained?Hi Darren, I know what you mean. It would be nice to be able to pull the latest management packs as well as management packs available from the download site from the catalog via the Operations Console, however, the packs in the catalog are not comprehensive.
I highly recommend the SCOM management pack wiki which is kept up to date by the community. I use this myself :) An added benefit to using this wiki over the catalog is that this links to the download page for the management pack of interest from where you
can obtain the management pack and its documentation which often contains useful detail on what the management pack entails. The wiki link is below:

Are we missing any Management Packs for newly installed services/applications
Hello!
Would it be possible to get a report or alarm when new server roles, services, applications etc. are installed on the monitored Windows Servers in SCOM 2012 SP1, but there are no Management Packs installed to monitor the new services?
For example on a newly provisioned Windows Server, the customer installs SQL 2008, but we don’t have the SQL 2008 SCOM Management Pack. How can we get a notification that we have a new Service installed there but no MP to monitor it.
Best Regards,
Mario Patov
Mario PatovHi,
Based on my knowledge, it’s a little difficult.
I recommend you use SCOM to monitor a txt which create by sc query command.
