Is there a need for another Azure, System Center, and PowerShell blog? Probably not. But I use the internet to find information and get help every day and I want to contribute back by sharing my knowledge.
This blog is primarily focused on Microsoft Azure and Datacenter management space, but you will also find a lot of automation, DevOps, and integration-related articles.
The name Adatum comes from the Microsoft training material and used as an example company together with Contoso.
Hopefully, you will find something useful.

Thanks for the concepts you talk about through this site. In addition, lots of young women that become pregnant will not even make an effort to get health insurance because they fear they probably would not qualify. Although a lot of states at this point require that insurers give coverage no matter the pre-existing conditions. Costs on these guaranteed options are usually higher, but when considering the high cost of medical treatment it may be the safer approach to take to protect your own financial potential.
Hi, I got my certification, like 80% of the question were from this dump https://www.pass4surexams.com/microsoft/az-104-dumps.html
I wholeheartedly suggest https://www.passexam4sure.com/ to anyone looking to undertake the Microsoft exam. Their study materials are exceptional in making topics engaging, and the practice tests proved invaluable. Having recently passed my exam, I strongly encourage you to give it a try – you’ll experience the magic for yourself.
I will 100% recommend https://www.pass4surexams.com/ to the other individuals who are interested in taking the Microsoft exam. Their study material is amazing at bringing subjects to life and the practice tests are a lifesaver. I passed my exam recently and advise you just go for it and you will see the magic.

Hello Martin,
we are looking for an Azure CSP monitoring solution and I saw your blogpost about this topic.
I think you are really close to finally find a solution on something everyone is looking for!
Can I ask you how far you are on the management pack? Is there a way our team can help with this?
Hi Hans. I haven’t worked with the MP in a while so atm. It only check the health state from service health in Azure. Now that Azure monitor is starting to come together (they had multiple apis and previews) I’ll leverage that as well.
I’m thinking about open sourcing the code so I will ask my employer about that this fall.
Martin
Thanks Hans.
I haven’t done anything with it in a while. Been waiting for a few azure monitor features to GA.
I have thought about open sourcing the code, but I will have to ask my employer. Why don’t you email me.
Best
Martin
Hello again Martin,
Yes, I have created the management pack with tun as profile and associated with that profile
and distributed it management servers, but now it’s says
— Once the discoveries are done, the web checks will show up in SCOM.
The management pack contains 2 monitors and 1 rule. — the question is are does rules and monitor supposed to show now automatically?
if yes, how can I find them ?
what name should they have ?
Thanks again in advance!!
Hi Asher. I was referencing to that mp as a reference for a technique you can use with pingdom. Reading between the lines, you are trying to use uptimerobot for pingdom?
Let me know
Martin
Hi Martin,
No, I’m trying to follow the post you sent me and instead of using UptimeRoboot replace it with
Pingdom, so that alerts from Pingdom will be forward to SCOM.
I just copy past the next instruction in the post.. but my question is after I did all the steps above
should the monitors and rule be created automatically ? or I need to create them?
Thanks in advance!
The monitors are created within the management pack. You can see them in the authoring space targeted pingdom (or whatever you called the class). If you upload the source code of your project I can take a quick look.
Hi Martin,
I did found the Management Pack I created for Pingdom alerts, but I still don’t see any rules or monitors with pingdoms name.. perhaps there is some step I’m missing ?
Thanks In advance!!!
Asher
Asher. Please upload your management pack and send me the link.
Thanks a lot for your replay, appreciate!
Hello Martin,
I have a question regarding your post on Web API for System Center Operations Manager –
http://adatum.no/operationsmanager/web-api-for-scom
We have SCOM application and Pingdom, my question is, is the system you built, could help us forward alerts from Pingdom to SCOM? and if yes, where should we configure the Pingdom credentials ?
Thanks in advance!
Hi Asher. The no functions built in to the api that allows you to insert data. SCOM doesn’t actually work that way. I can suggest that you create a management pack using pingdoms api. I have done that for several systems. Here’s one example using uptimerobot, basically the same as pingdom. https://noalertleftbehind.blog/2017/06/30/integrate-external-website-monitoring-with-scom-uptimerobot/
Hi Martin,
I tried to work according to the post you sent me and I have add the PIngdom APIKey to my SCOM server registry and created the Run As Account but now I’m stuck at the point that I’m asked to add distribution as I’m not sure what to add, if you could please advise on that..
Thanks a lot in advance!!
Asher
You have created a management pack with a run as profile? Then you need to add the account and associate with that profile, and distribute to your management servers/pool
