For questions or comments, send an email message to [email protected] Page | 3 Monitoring your Datacenter with System Center 2012 R2 Operations Manager Note regarding user account control Some steps in this lab may be subject to user account control. User account control is a technology which provides additional security to computers by requesting that users confirm actions that require administrative rights. Tasks that generate a user account control confirmation are denoted using a shield icon. If you encounter a shield icon, confirm your action by selecting the appropriate button in the dialog box that is presented. Note on activation The virtual machines for these labs may have been built by using software that has not been activated. This is by design in the lab to prevent the redistribution of activated software. The unactivated state of software has been taken into account in the design of the lab. Consequently, the lab is in no way affected by this state. For operating systems other than Windows 8.1, please click Cancel or Close if prompted by an activation dialog box. If you are prompted by an Activate screen for Windows 8.1, press the Windows key to display the Start screen. Lab created by HynesITe, Inc. For questions or comments, send an email message to [email protected] Page | 4 Monitoring your Datacenter with System Center 2012 R2 Operations Manager Exercise 1: Preparing to Monitor your Infrastructure As a first step, after the installation of System Center 2012 R2, you will need to configure Operations Manager and other applications and services to provide the monitoring functionality you require. This involves the installation of Operations Manager agents that collect data from servers, clients, and applications to report to Operations Manager. Additionally, you will need to add management packs and configure connectors for a number of services and applications. In this exercise, you will install a management pack, configure a connector for System Center 2012 R2 Virtual Machine Manager, and review the pre-installed connector for System Center Advisor. Importing management packs Management packs are essential to the functionality and utility of Operations Manager. Management packs contain the settings for monitoring applications and services; however, they can also contain tasks, views, reports, Run As profiles, rules, and other parts. By default, when Operations Manager is first installed, only a subset of the available management packs are imported and installed. These management packs allow you to monitor the features of your Operations Manager infrastructure, such as management servers, reporting servers, and databases. To extend the reach and functionality of Operations Manager, you can import and install additional management packs, available either from Microsoft or from third parties. In this task, you will import a management pack. Perform this task logged on to SCOM01 as Contoso\Administrator using the password Passw0rd! 1. On SCOM01, on the taskbar, click Operations Manager 2012. 2. In the workspace, click Administration. 3. Right-click Management Packs, and then click Import Management Packs. The Import Management Packs wizard opens. 4. In the Import Management Packs dialog box, click Add, and then click Add from disk. The Online Catalog Connection wizard opens. You could also search the Microsoft catalog for management packs to download and then install. 5. Click No. Some management packs you select may have dependencies that cannot be located locally. If that is the case you can search the online catalog for these dependencies. For the purpose of this lab you can click No. 6. Browse to C:\LabFiles\Lab 1 Operations Manager\ManagementPacks\. 7. Select Microsoft.SystemCenter.VirtualMachineManager.Dashboard.mpb and Virtual.Machine.Manager.Dashboards.xml, and then click Open. Lab created by HynesITe, Inc. For questions or comments, send an email message to [email protected] Page | 5 Monitoring your Datacenter with System Center 2012 R2 Operations Manager The remaining management packs in this folder have already been installed as part of the lab setup. The .mpb extension indicates a management pack bundle. A management pack typically contains a single XML file, or in the case of sealed management pack, a binary file. A management pack bundle contains the XML plus associated resources, such as images, workflow assemblies, scripts, and others. A management pack with an XML extension indicates that it is an unsealed management pack and can be modified. A sealed management pack usually has am .MP extension. The Virtual.Machine.Manager.Dashboards.xml is a third-party management pack that is freely available for download
