Using Operations Manager in the environment makes it easier to monitor multiple computers, devices, services, and applications. The Operations console, shown in the following image, enables you to check the health, performance, and availability for all monitored objects in the environment and helps you identify and resolve problems.
Operations Manager will tell you which monitored objects are not healthy, send alerts when problems are identified, and provide information to help you identify the cause of a problem and possible solutions. As the administrator, you configure what will be monitored by selecting computers and devices to be monitored and importing management packs that provide monitoring for specific features and applications.
To decide which objects to monitor and what to monitor for, you need to understand the features that comprise the Operations Manager infrastructure and how Operations Manager works. Installing Operations Manager creates a management group. The management group is the basic unit of functionality.
At a minimum, a management group consists of a management server , the operational database , and the reporting data warehouse database. The management server is the focal point for administering the management group and communicating with the database.
When you open the Operations console and connect to a management group, you connect to a management server for that management group. Depending on the size of your computing environment, a management group can contain a single management server or multiple management servers.
The operational database is a SQL Server database that contains all configuration data for the management group and stores all monitoring data that is collected and processed for the management group.
The operational database retains short-term data, by default 7 days. The data warehouse database is a SQL Server database that stores monitoring and alerting data for historical purposes. Data that is written to the Operations Manager database is also written to the data warehouse database, so reports always contain current data.
The data warehouse database retains long-term data. When Operations Manager reporting functionality is installed, the management group also contains a Reporting server which builds and presents reports from data in the data warehouse database. These core components of a management group can exist on a single server, or they can be distributed across multiple servers, as shown in the following image. For information about installing management group features, see Operations Manager Deployment Guide.
The role of the management server is to administer the management group configuration, administer and communicate with agents, and communicate with the databases in the management group. The management group can contain multiple management servers to provide additional capacity and continuous availability. When two or more management servers are added to a management group, the management servers become part of a resource pool and work is spread across the members of the pool. When a new management server is added, the new management server automatically picks up some of the work from existing members in the resource pool.
All members in the resource pool will manage a distinct set of remote objects; at any given time, two members in the same pool will not manage the same object at the same time. A specialized type of management server is the gateway server. A gateway server enables the monitoring of computers in untrusted domains. For more information, see Planning a management group design. An Operations Manager agent is a service that is installed on a computer. The agent collects data, compares sampled data to predefined values, creates alerts, and runs responses.
A management server receives and distributes configurations to agents on monitored computers. Every agent reports to a management server in the management group. This management server is referred to as the agent's primary management server. Agents watch data sources on the monitored computer and collect information according to the configuration that is sent to it from its management server.
The agent also calculates the health state of the monitored computer and objects on the monitored computer and reports back to the management server. When the health state of a monitored object changes or other criteria are met, an alert can be generated from the agent.
This lets operators know that something requires attention. By providing health data about the monitored object to the management server, the agent provides an up-to-date picture of the health of the device and all the applications that it hosts. The instance of SQL Server that you specified does not have the required configuration or features. You can hover the cursor over the Server name and instance name text box to view additional information about the error.
In the Database name , Database size MB , Data file folder , and Log file folder boxes, we recommend that you accept the default values. To resolve this problem, open a Command Prompt window, select Run as administrator , and then run the following command.
If it is, you might encounter an error in Setup regarding the inability to create a database on SQL due to user permissions.
To resolve the issue, you must reduce the size of the model database. When the Configuration , Configure the data warehouse database page opens, in the Server name and instance name box, type the server name and the name of the instance of SQL Server for the database server that will host the data warehouse database.
Because this is the first management server installation, accept the default value of Create a new data warehouse database. None of them should have domain administrator credentials. Select your options, and then click Next. Review the options on the Configuration , Installation Summary page, and then click Install. Setup continues. When Setup is finished, the Setup is complete page appears.
Click Close. In the Operations console, in the navigation pane, click the Administration button, and then expand Device Management. In Device Management , select Management Servers. In the results pane, you should see the management server that you just installed with a green check mark in the Health State column.
On the Configuration, Specify an installation option page, select Add a Management server to an existing management group , and then click Next. Select the database name from the Database name drop-down list, and then click Next. You must provide the same credentials for the Management server action account and the System Center Configuration Service and System Center Data Access service that you provided when you created the first management server in your management group.
On a computer with the Operations console installed, sign on with an account that is a member of the Operations Manager Administrators group and launch the Operations console. Change the path to where the Operations Manager setup. Skip to main content.
