NOTE: If the MD Storage Arrays MP and MD Storage Arrays Detailed Monitoring

Overrides MP are imported together in the same session, you will see the health

monitor status for the individual components of the MD Storage Array device. If

only MD Storage Arrays MP is imported, the individual component level monitoring

is disabled and will appear as not monitored.

NOTE: The procedure may slightly change in SCE 2007 SP1, SCE 2010 and SCOM

2007 SP1.

Guidelines for Performance and

Scalability for SCOM

For optimal performance, deploy the Dell MD Storage Arrays Management

Pack Suite version 4.1 on a dedicated management station.

NOTE: MD Storage Arrays MP runs monitoring scripts periodically on the

management server to determine the health of MD Array and its components. When

you are monitoring a large number of MD Storage Arrays, the number of monitoring

scripts increases and results in high CPU utilization on the management server that

manages them. If you delete the MD Storage Arrays Detailed Monitoring Overrides

MP, the CPU utilization comes down. Distributing the MD Storage Arrays across the

management servers in the group also brings down the CPU utilization on the

management server.

For information on Microsoft’s recommendations for scalability, see the

Microsoft website at http://technet.microsoft.com/hi-

NOTE: Ensure that the Autogrow option is enabled in Operations Manager

Database.
