Locking down views on SCOM 2007 web client

ITKE — Mon, 01 Mar 2010 19:57:10 +0000

We monitor several customer environments with SCOM 2007, can I lock down the views on the web client so that each customer can log in and only see data (performance & Alerts) relating to their environment?

This question was asked during the Microsoft System Center live chat on IT Knowledge Exchange in January 2010.

How can I get the SCOM to show Exchange server performance data?

Exchange Ask the Experts — Mon, 18 Feb 2008 23:13:51 +0000

I am trying to deploy Microsoft System Center Operations Manager (SCOM) 2007 to monitor our Exchange 2003 servers. I am having problems with mail flow monitoring and configuration. I ran the Exchange Server Management Pack Configuration Wizard and all accounts and test mailboxes have been created. I verified all permissions and rights and they are all granted correctly. However, I am not able to see any data in the Exchange Server mail flow performance data report.

I opened one of the test mailboxes and saw the test messages sent by SCOM. But the sender of these messages is from the sending server’s disabled mailbox account (serverAmom) rather than being sent from the mailbox access account that was created and specified during configuration.

Is this correct? How can I get SCOM to show the Exchange performance data, such as the mail flow tests? How long does it take to send the test email from server A to server B. Are there any delays?
