However, i need your insight and thought path around how xSNMP for ATM monitoring that was available in SCOM2007 can be used or modified to be adapted to SCOM2012. I'll be glad to hear from you soonest.

Because I'm a Linux and Unix guy with a little HP OpenView TeMIP and Micromuse Netcool background I find it very interesting how SCOM works and differs from all other monitoring systems. To make this popular I've published a bunch of documents which I want to share. Most of them are about Linux integration and one of them will tell the story how it is possible to integrate VMware vSphere server running on windows sending snmp traps to SCOM. I hope you will find these information valuable. You can find it here:<br />http://www.fricnet.de/<br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00800705908679227189noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1807410337729170157.post-61326624764832106432014-07-02T09:28:47.574-07:002014-07-02T09:28:47.574-07:00Adding SNMP as illustrated in the first portion ma...Adding SNMP as illustrated in the first portion may not be viable. I show that it works even without native SNMP. The difficulty is that the event view that I setup doesn't work in the same manner, making it somewhat more of a pain to troubleshoot. Instead, you can setup critical or warning alerts and they will show up in the default console. With SNMP, it's a bit more elegant in that you can watch all the events in the event pane without generating the alerts. I haven't been able to get that same functionality without SNMP.Dave Murphyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14038170973560613332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1807410337729170157.post-70612955619028564282014-07-01T22:25:58.141-07:002014-07-01T22:25:58.141-07:00Seems that this is no longer a viable option if yo...Seems that this is no longer a viable option if you use Server 2012 or server 2012 R2 as SNMP is deprecated as a role.<br />http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh831568.aspxLantrixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17753289441270011598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1807410337729170157.post-14472448523528482762014-06-13T07:11:30.505-07:002014-06-13T07:11:30.505-07:00Could you go into a little more detail or point to...Could you go into a little more detail or point to someplace where this is documented?TrogLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11904017863713802931noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1807410337729170157.post-72631044772760575082014-06-11T06:47:58.454-07:002014-06-11T06:47:58.454-07:00Absolutely, you can perform SNMP probes with unit ...Absolutely, you can perform SNMP probes with unit monitors and rulesapollohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01379488604689412312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1807410337729170157.post-62323428981941832242014-05-01T16:22:39.766-07:002014-05-01T16:22:39.766-07:00Hi Dave,

If you want to be able to use the event log to check for activity, you'll have to setup local SNMP services. Otherwise, you'll need to set the SNMP monitor to simply generate an alert for all the traps. That would allow you to see what's working and what's not.Dave Murphyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14038170973560613332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1807410337729170157.post-82411118659023369202014-02-07T15:08:54.364-08:002014-02-07T15:08:54.364-08:00This comment has been removed by the author.Dave Murphyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14038170973560613332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1807410337729170157.post-24473368874299479862014-02-07T09:08:26.482-08:002014-02-07T09:08:26.482-08:00Hi, I am still having problems with this.

I can see that other network devices (switches and the like) raise traps via this rule perfectly, so it must be as this server is defined as ICMP only. <br /><br />Agreed, SNMP in SCOM is very frustrating. Unfortunately I don't have the luxury of using something else like Solarwinds. I've just moved away from SNMP as much as possible (SCOM now monitors the event logs which the application is configured to write to, for example). Using event monitors and Windows stuff allows you to use repeated event monitoring, which is actually really good.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10445287137947638251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1807410337729170157.post-61800929636559944252013-08-06T08:55:01.309-07:002013-08-06T08:55:01.309-07:00What version of Suse? and is there any way to conf...What version of Suse? and is there any way to configure SNMP or is that a non-starter? Otherwise, I've been setting servers up as SNMP only. I've had mixed results when using ICMP or SNMP when attempting to capture SNMP traps from systems I want to monitor. One of the things I'm finding is that it seems much easier to use a program like Solarwinds, which can import MIB files, to capture the SNMP traffic and then send the alerts to SCOM. As I continue to work with SNMP in SCOM, it has many limitations that I find frustrating. Works great for Cisco devices but falls short beyond that.Dave Murphyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14038170973560613332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1807410337729170157.post-84429223500952048942013-08-06T07:37:27.301-07:002013-08-06T07:37:27.301-07:00Hi Dave, me again.

If a filtered device was found, such as a windows server, it would say filtered devices were discovered and they would be excluded from SNMP monitoring.<br /><br />Under event number 12008 in that same view, you'll see the discovered device. In there, you'll see something that says "Windows computers filtered" for any windows devices that were discovered via the SNMP discovery process.Dave Murphyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14038170973560613332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1807410337729170157.post-66164966078277128732013-06-18T05:55:56.857-07:002013-06-18T05:55:56.857-07:00have you write some post ? have you write some post ?
