SCVMM and SCOM 2012 Integration Issues
Hello, I have integrated SCOM 2012 RTM and SCVMM 2012 RTM and am having lots of issues that were not present with 2007/2008 family integration. For starters, my SCOM environment manages multiple untrusted domains, etc. When enabling VMM integration
I now get hundreds of alerts about "Unable to verify Run As Account", stating that is cannot login as the VMM service account for all clients that don't live in same domain as SCVMM server. For starters why do my physical servers, and all VMs need
to be distributed with this account? The alert is also expected logically, because this is impossible to distribute a Run As account to every agent in a multi-domain untrusted environment. Also according to this configuration, the Virtual
Machine Manager Connection Account created in SCOM is set to less secure (distributed to all agents), which is why the alert is coming up; additionally less secure setting is typically bad practice. Why does SCVMM do this by default? Can it be
changed? What are options here? It seems to me only the SCOM management server should need this Run As account, not every agent? Thoughts on this? Thanks!
I'm running SCVMM 2012 R2 and OpsMgr 2012 R2. I have the integration setup and have had the same issue with the RunAs account logging on to workgroup computers.
I tried changing the account distribution to More secure and only targeting my two management servers and the VMM server. I also changed the profile so that it targeted only the Windows Computer object for the same three servers. I came in this
morning and I do not have the "Run As Account Could Not Log On" message anymore on the workgroup computer, but now I have an alert "VMM Agent Not Monitored By Operations Manager" for the VMM server. I look at the Health Explorer and see that the agent
is reachable but its not being monitored.
I tried changing the RunAs profile back to "All Targeted Objects" but monitoring still didn't restart. Then I tried restarting the OpsMgr agent and then the VMM agent, but still the status did not change. Now, I have just set the account back
to Less secure and have again received the warning from the workgroup computer about not being able to log on. I'll wait a little longer to see if the VMM server begins to be managed.
Any experience with this?

SCCM and SCOM 2012 R2 Databases on one box
Our current situation is: About 150 Servers(VMware) and 600 windows 7 clients.
SCCM 2007 and SQL 2008 on one box, and for SCOM 2007 we have a dedicated SQL2005 VM. All of them on W2K3R2 OS.
Because of end of support for W2K3, we are not going to upgrade the servers.
New situation is SCCM and SCOM 2012 R2 with SQL 2014 on W2k12R2. I'm considering to install one SQL 2014 server only for SCOM and SCCM. Would performance be an issue??

Scom 2007 and scom 2012 agent multi home
is there version limit for the agent multihom for scom 2007 and scom 2012?
In technet i found it for SCOM upgrade it mentioned need scom 2007 CU4 and above, how about for multihome approach for SCOM agent?
Besides that, instead of agent upgrade, could we perform agent uninstallation scom 2007 and reinstall scom 2012?
Thanks for your advice.Hi Cylim,
You can upgrade your agents to SCOM 2012 only from SCOM 2007 R2 CU4. Please look at these helpful links:

As Scott mentioned, you can uninstall SCOM 2007 agent and install SCOM 2012 agent on one or a few servers, and see if they report properly to both management groups SCOM 2007 and SCOM 2012:

What is Licensing Method for SCCM and SCOM 2012
What is Licensing Method for SCCM and SCOM 2012
We have 75000 clients, so we going to implement SCCM and SCOM 2012 environment in azure. Actually we plan to go for One Central Administration site and three primary sites (to manage this clients), going to host in Azure. I need to know how the licensing
process work for this environment, how many licenses we need to get for this? is charging for Client based, Site based or environment based? Please update.
Thank you
Fazal
Fazal(MCTS)Hi,
Running the SCCM and SCOM servers themselves in Azure to manage clients outside azure is not really supported if I remember correctly..
http://blogs.technet.com/b/configmgrteam/archive/2013/10/23/configmgr-and-endpoint-protection-support-for-windows-azure-vms.aspx
Licensing is explained here.
http://www.microsoft.com/licensing/about-licensing/SystemCenter2012-R2.aspx
In short for Client OS you need a cal per client, included in Core CAL and Enterprise CAL.
For servers it is licensed per CPU and can be licensed for all virtual servers on a host as well, included in the guide above.
ps. side note a CAS is not really necessary in most case if you don't have more than 100'000 clients, it adds a lot of complexity and I would avoid it if I could.

Exchange 2013 SP1 and SCOM 2012 R2
Hi there,
Hopefully someone can assist me with this issue, if it is one...
I am halfway through an Exchange migration, from Exchange 2010 SP3 on Server 2008 R2 to Exchange 2013 SP1 on Server 2012 R2.
76 users in total, roughly 80GB of Public Folders.
I have configured the 2013 environment with a cross datacenter DAG, also increased all of the timeouts of the cluster to take this into consideration, and everything appears to function as expected.
Added both 2013 machines to SCOM 2012 R2 for at least a week with no active users on it, and all monitoring reported ok, no issues.
Exchange 2010 is configured to use webmail.company.com for RPC over HTTP, which is what I have configured 2013 to use as well.
Implemented Microsoft ARR for client access to Exchange 2013, as opposed to ISA we've used for Exchange 2010.
A week ago, changed the DNS records for webmail.company.com from ISA to ARR, and all clients connected perfect.
Thought, ok, now we can start the migration. So far everything "seems" to be going perfect with the mailbox moves, however, SCOM is really noisy.
Attempted to reran the probe for EWS and got the error below:
Is there perhaps anyone that can assist me with these errors?
CheersFYI... IIS ARR is not supported for Exchange Server.
Check in event log if you are getting anything related to the issue.
About Outlook POP UP to end users. Check the event log on 2010/2013 for MRS events.
Are those mailboxes still moving or in move request?

SCOM 2012 Integration with Solarwinds
Hi Experts,
Currently we are using SCOM 2012 for Server, Application, Network, etc monitoring. Also, we are using Solarwinds Network Performance Monitor(NPM) for network monitoring and Network Configuration Manager(NCM) to perform configuration backup of network
devices as SCOM 2012 does not have this capability.
We are planning to have single consolidated view in SCOM 2012.
Please let us know, how can we integrate Solarwinds NPM and NCM with SCOM 2012.
Any help will be appreciated.
Kumaresan LakshmananIt depends. To be honest I never used it myself. If this MP is NOT based on OpsMgr Network Device class(es) - it should work on OpsMgr 2012. It seems like this MP queries a Solarwind product with a connector - this probably should work for 2012 as well.

SCVMM and SCCM 2012 R2 - Deploying VM's - Which method
Hi guys,
Looking at deploying SCCM 2012 R2 and SCVMM 2012 R2. I've used SCCM 2012 quite a lot in a previous environment, but not SCVMM.
I'm aware SCVMM is for bare-metal Hyper-V (as well as Xen and ESXi), and for managing the virtual environment, but do I create VM templates and create my VM Servers within SCVMM, or just the shell and PXE boot into a SCCM Task Sequence to deploy the OS?
Will also be running Orchestrator too.... So to deploy a VM would a runbook be used to create a VM shell in SCVMM, and then kick off a TS in SCCM?
Or should I be building the server templates and basically replicating some of SCCM's OSD capability for VM servers in SCVMM?
Thanks - SteveThx Stevehoot.
Yes, you might see that there are some "overlapping" technologies involved, but please remember that SCCM is the general approach, that has been supporting physical servers/computers since day one. This requires PXE boot for the VMs as well, in order to
deploy the OS, install the agent and then the applications.
Using VMM for VM deployment, the VMM agent will handle this all for you and you can manage your datacenter from this single console. Currently, Gen2 has lacking support in some areas, like service templates in VMM, VM roles in Azure Pack and replication
to Azure using Microsoft Azure Site Recovery.
Moving forward, it would be smart if you could invest in deployment using VMM if the majority of your workloads will be on virtual machines. What we basically sees in the field is that people are using SCCM to deploy their traditional applications onto these
servers where service templates may not be the right solution. But again, then SCCM is something that kicks in post the VM deployment.

Hi,
I wanted to see if there is anyway to push out HP updates to HP workstations(laptops) using SCOM 2012?
Trying to avoid going workstation, through workstation and install updates manually.

http://www.gerryhampsoncm.blogspot.ie/2013/04/sccm-2012-sp1-step-by-step-guide-part.html
However that is very different from deploying HP updates, which is your requirement. For this you will also need HP System Software Manager (SSM) and System Center Updates Publisher (SCUP).
You will get good information as follows:

Sharepoint 2013 and SSRS 2012 Integration - Report Server Content Types not displayed
Hello, Everyone:
I installed SSRS 2012 on our Sharepoint 2013 application server following the step-by-step instruction from the posting below:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj219068.aspx
Everything goes well after STEP 3 is completed.
I did see the reporting services started and SSRS service application created.
However, when I created a new site and tried to enable the predefined Reporting Services content types, I do not see the Shared data source (.rsds) files, report models (.smdl), and Report Builder report definition (.rdl) 3 types of files listed at
all.
Further more, when I go to the Provision Subscriptions and Alerts page, I keep getting a "SQL Server Agent state cannot be determined" error, even though the username and password provided is the admin user
for the database.
Any experience of what is wrong with the SSRS - Sharepoint integration? Please help!
TinaHello, Treavor:
Now that the content types problem is resolved, I need to come back to the
Provision Subscriptions and Alerts page.
I guess I'm a little confused about what is being asked for the Provision Subscriptions and Alerts page.
The user I provided on the Provision Subscriptions and Alerts page is my user-defined sysadmin role. And the page takes that.
When I downloaded the SQL script, it was trying to give the automatically generated user "sa-SPDevContentAppPo" permission.
Which user are we using to detect the SQL Server Agent?
Thanks again!

Dear,
We do not have Orchestrator running in our SCCM 2012 R2 environment. Though I wonder if we could accomplish the following scenario with it:
Task sequence Windows 7 => Orchestrator step which queries assigned installations to the computer object and installs them one by one.
Could you advise?
Kind regards,
Stev.
SteveWonB> > Define "assigned to computer objects". How is this done technically?
Well, computer objects are members of collections via AD memberships, like the collection "W7-Google-Chrome" (exists of 100 computer objects).
Deploy of packages is done to these collections. So a computer member of "W7-Google-Chrome" will automatically get Google Chrome.
Some computers are member of 30 collections, some of 80.
Goal is to have the task sequence run all applications/packages assigned (with their reboots if needed).
Kind regards,
Steven

Meeting place 8.0 and WebEx Node Integration issue.
Hello All,
We have installed MP 8.x and Webex node on seperate servers. After this we have installed a webserver.exe and sql server on a different server and configured the GatewaySIM and sql. connectivity is fine.
1. Please let us know how to login to MP user portal. (What is the URL)
2. How to integrate Webex with MP?
3. Is there a good document to bring up the webex web interface.
Regards,
ShaijalTake a look at http://docwiki.cisco.com/wiki/Cisco_Unified_MeetingPlace_Release_8.0_--_Integrating_Cisco_Unified_MeetingPlace_with_Cisco_WebEx
That has all the information I used to eventually get the MP WebEx integration to work for us.
If you have problems you may struggle to get a good answer from Cisco on this, unfortunately there is very little knowledge of WebEx within Cisco TAC, something they badly need to address. -
InDesign CS4 and PhotoShop CS4 Integration issue.
When working in inDesign CS4 Mac, I often click on a image to edit it in photoshop CS4 via the edit button in the InDesign links pallet That brings up the file in PhotoShop so that I can make my adjustments. When trying to save the photo in Photoshop the file will note save.
I get the pop up message that the file is in use. So I have to close the InDesign file in order to save the photo, re open inDesign to re-link the image. Very frustrating when working with a customer.... Any one else having this issue? or am I just lucky.

SCCM 2012 integration with SCOM 2012 - Disable Alerts during patching
Have SCCM 2012 R2 and SCOM 2012 R2 and use the Software Update Patching process for servers. When using the checkbox to "Disable Operations Manager Alerts when this program runs" option have noticed on completion of the job and the target
server is rebooted, a scheduled task appears for a short time titled "SCOM 2007 Agent Resume Task". The task disappears and there is no history to view.
Is this a legacy naming convention from 2007 world when the maintenance mode is turned off from the SCCM patching process?
How do I see the actual code behind the SCCM and SCOM integration with Maintenance mode to validate it.SCCM should use the following SCOM SDK to do that.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb437532.aspx
That's incorrect. There is no API or method to put an OpsMgr agent into maintenance mode on the client itself -- maintenance mode is a centrally controlled feature of OpsMgr. The API/code sample you linked is performing that activity on the management server
which assumes you know the management server name and have permissions to carry out the action -- neither of which is fulfilled by the ConfigMgr agent.
The ConfigMgr agent pauses the OpsMgr client agent service and also unloads the workflows from the OpsMgr agent (it only did the first part in ConfigMgr 2007). This effectively puts the agent in Maintenance Mode (although to my knowledge this is not directly
reflected in the OpsMgr console).
