Whenever I suggest monitoring UNIX and Linux monitoring with SCOM, every IT Manager says “yes”, but when I need to discuss the technical installations with the UNIX SysAdmin the conversation turns;
Nevertheless I have made a collection with very useful links for Monitoring UNIX or Linux machines with SCOM 2012;
- Install Agent on Windows Using the Discovery Wizard [click]
- Install Agent and Certificate on UNIX and Linux Computers Using the Command Line [click]
- Configuring sudo Elevation for UNIX and Linux Monitoring with SCOM 2012 [click]
- Troubleshooting UNIX/Linux Agent Discovery in SCOM 2012 [click]
