This falls into the targeting best practice of 'monitoring on a subset of servers'. You would in this case do the following. 1. Create the monitor in a DISABLED state (enabled = false) 2. Create a group containing the Biztalk servers. (if one that

Checks to see if a Windows service is configured to 'automatically restart' in case of service failure (service properties, Recovery tab). Use in a two-state monitor targeting a Windows operating system class. Script accepts one parameter - the name (not

Tenchuu is dead on with the number 1 issue with UI-created overrides, and here are two packs that come with an override included, so you can have a look at the XML PKI Certificate Verification MP or Virtual Machine Discovery MP

Hey Daniel, you mention adding the group as the target of the monitor, which is a problem. Have a look at this info on targeting best practices while you're sorting through this, which may answer all your questions. http://blogs.technet.com/smsandmom

That's not a common issue that script only fails on some agents, but I have seen it mentioned before (and seem to recall witnessing this with a custom MP with PowerShell). I have seen that error a few times in my own PowerShell, and in my case I believe

Here's a ConfigMgr 2007 collection query I've been using to find Systems without an OpsMgr 2007 agent installed. This query will show you systems with the System Center Management service (HealthService) installed select SMS_R_SYSTEM.ResourceID,SMS_R_SYS

I was writing some simple automation sequences for a user demonstration and realized that the sleep command present on most versions of Windows is missing from Windows Server 2008. So, I found myself in need of an alternative. I bit of digging around, I

This is a custom event monitor gone bad...check this out. The UTGenerated.... below in yellow indicates a monitor created in the Operations console. One or more workflows were affected by this. Workflow name: UIGeneratedMonitorc82a8c00970949469090

Miguel, assuming you have the normal prerequisites in place (agent proxy enabled), I would start by connecting with the remote tools to check the Operations Manager Event Log for warning events related to cluster discovery scripts and other failures. H

The answer on dynamic virtual hard disks (or thin provisioning, in VMware terms) has become more nuanced over time. A few years ago, the answer was "not for production workloads". As with many situations, the answer today is "it depends". In part 1 of th

If you run a continuous ping from guest to host, what is the result? Any replies dropped? I saw some issues like this in my lab and lad to drop back to using legacy network adapters as opposed to the synthetic version. Have you tried to use a 'legac

I've seen a couple of scenarios where this happens, but guessing neither will apply to you given your expertise. Given the error message, these problems tend to be at layer 2 or 3 in the stack. A few questions for you: Guests are not on a private v

Brad, can you paste your precise error in your next response? Are you trying to perform a split reporting install? SRS instance on one server and databases on another? http://wmug.co.uk/blogs/gordons_blog/archive/2008/08/06/implementing-a-split-srs-i
