  • 10/09/201507/01/2025
  • by Martin Ehrnst

Yesterday, Microsoft release a new management pack for Active Directory. This is the first release to this MP for over a year, not a lot has changed, but for non US citizens, using another locale settings, there is a change to “AD_OP_Master_Response.vbs” script which failed for German locale settings, and caused issues due to date format on other languages.

MP catalog is not updated, but you can download the latest release here

Export agent rollup info

  • 24/08/201507/01/2025

Recently, the OpsMgr team released a delayed Rollup 7 to Operations Manager. Some times, working with SCOM you’re forced to perform some sort of change management how strict this is depends on your company policy. After installing the latest rollup to OpsMgr you will have to patch your agents as well. I do not know how you do this in your company, but it’s either completely manual process (i hope not), through the console for remote managed agents (if your firewall allows it) or with another tool. WSUS, SCCM etc. No matter how you do it, you will wan’t to check which agent where patched or more exactly, the agent that need attention.

So the other day, i wrote a small script to provide me this information. I know, SCOM has it’s own agent version info view, but i needed to be able to work on it “offline” at that point. This is a simple script which takes input for management server, rollup info and what type of export you want, html or csv.

 

Lets call this a “fast publish”, so please let me know if you experience any problems.

I have attached a few screenshots to illustrate. And the script, GetSCOMPatchlist

  • 18/08/201507/01/2025

After five years, Pete Zerger and Oskar Landman has released a new, and improved version of their SCOM Health Check Reports. The release was a few weeks ago, but since i did not notice it was updated, maybe you missed it as well.

 

SCOM health check report

 

Some key updates that i have found.

  • Full redesign
  • Additional reports
  • Drill down capabilities

If you are not familiar to these reports i strongly urge you to check them out. It will give you new (and much-needed) insights on your SCOM environment.

Already using version 2?  just install version 3. First time users will have to configure a new data source on your reporting server.

for all your coders, the source code is also available on GitHub
