OpenPegasus to OMI Transition



Upgrade process for Microsoft-provided agents is seamless



Installation of SC 2012 R2 agent for Linux/UNIX replaces OpenPegasus with OMI



Settings are maintained (such as custom SSL cipher settings)



Other MPs that have providers will not work until they are upgraded



No compatibility with providers written for OpenPegasus



Who do we know is affected?



Vendors with MPs that include OpenPegasus providerss

(19)

Extensibility via Templates

• Monitor any logfile

• Specify regular expression to match against

• Target a single computer or group of computers

Custom LogFile

Monitoring

• Monitor by name any service, daemon or process

• Distinguish duplicate names with regex filter on process arguments

• Specify minimum and maximum counts

• Target a single computer or group of computers

What is SC Advisor?



Cloud Health Assesment (Web) Service



With or without SCOM



Not a real time monitoring



«Best Practice» analyzer



Missing patches (e.g. VMM isn’t running the latest UR)



Misconfiguration (e.g. VMM SPN not registered correctly)

(24)

End User (Web Portal)

• Check alerts

• Review configuration

MSFT CSS and Product Teams

• Add Knowledge and Rules

Customer Datacenter

• SCOM deployed or SCA agents /

• Data analyzed / aggregation

• Alerts added

Upload

• Alerts / data / configuration

Upload time is configurable; you can stop uploading at any time



You can close your account and request to remove data from Advisor servers

(account cleanup happens within 90 days)



Your organization will be the only non-Microsoft party who will have access to

your individual organization’s data
