Chapter 5 Integrating with SCOM
Table 5-3 shows the service component monitors that are provided for a security server.
Domain connectivity monitor – verifies that a Connection Server can bind to all the domains of which it
is a member. The monitor queries the status of the Web component on a Connection Server every 3
minutes. If a Connection Server cannot bind to a domain, SCOM sets its state to error and raises an alert.
See “Display Information About an Alert” on page 70, “Exclude a Domain from Connectivity
Monitoring on page 70, and “Close Alerts” on page 71.
Event database connectivity monitor – checks that the event database is configured and that events are
writable to the database. The monitor queries the Web component every 3 minutes for this information
and raises an alert if the event database is not connected.
Virtual Center (vCenter) connectivity monitor – checks that a View Connection Server instance can
connect to the configured vCenter servers. The monitor queries the Web component every 3 minutes for
this information and raises an alert if a vCenter server is not available.
Performance Data Collection Settings
To save storage space, the System.Performance.OptimizedDataProvider module is configured to store
performance data in the SCOM database when the value of a sampled item has changed by more than a
specified tolerance. For more information, see http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee809318.aspx.
Table 5-4 shows the performance data collection settings for the data sets.
