Monitoring HP Servers Running VMWare (Intro)

Up until now, we have had a definitely challenge in working to get our HP VMware servers actively monitored at the hardware level in SCOM. Last month, HP introduced a new series of management packs. The downside is, they require the SNMP services to be running in order to pick up agentless and VMWare based systems. We'll see how that affects SNMP capabilities in SCOM as there had been instructions to disable those services. More to come on these updates.
