Increased Efficiency and Control Amit GatenyoInfrastructure & Security Team LeadDario
Best of Breed for Windows Accelerates problem resolution and reduces the TCO of Windows environment • Expertise for over 70 Microsoft applications, servers, and clients • Agentless exception monitoring via Windows Error Reporting • Client monitoring of Vista, XP, and the Office suite • Audit collection service archives security logs • 3rd party connectors for integration with other systems
Microsoft SQL Server Enterprise LOB Application Monitoring with Operations Manager 2007 • End-to-end visibility into mission critical applications • Faster problem resolution using SQL Server knowledge • Increased DBA productivity • Automate routinemanagement tasks • Consolidated view of distributed servers and applications
Client Perspective of Databases • Management Pack templates and wizards are used to configure watcher nodes to monitor the client perspective • A state view provides a summary of all watcher nodes • Multiple watcher nodes can be used to give a distributed view of client availability of businesscritical databases
Microsoft Exchange Server End-to-end service management with Operations Manager 2007 • Proactive End-to-end service monitoring • Faster problem resolutionusing Exchange knowledge • Increased Exchangeadministrator productivity • Automated routinemanagement tasks • End user monitoringperspective of the Exchange Service
Exchange Synthetic Transactions • An Exchange server’s health changes to Error • Operator drills down by highlighting the problem path using the Diagram View • Synthetic MAPI Logon monitor detected a failure which affected the Exchange server’s health state • Operator pivots from Diagram View to Alert View to review alert that have recently been generated for Exchange server
Exchange Synthetic Transactions • An Exchange server’s health changes to Error • Operator drills down by highlighting the problem path using the Diagram View • Synthetic MAPI Logon monitor detected a failure which affected the Exchange server’s health state • Operator pivots from Diagram View to Alert View to review alert that have recently been generated for Exchange server
Exchange MP Self-Tuning Thresholds • It is now possible implement a “zero-configuration” threshold monitor for example to monitor SMTP Queue length • It’s no longer necessary to fine tune thresholds manually for each Exchange deployment, role of an Exchange Server. • The Self-tuning threshold will automatically learn an appropriate threshold and alert when something is not normal
Best of Breed for Windows Amit GatenyoInfrastructure & Security Team LeadDario
