Monitoring using SCOM

Enterprise Vault includes a management pack for System Center Operations Manager 2007 (SCOM).

The Enterprise Vault Management Pack defines rules that enable SCOM to monitor critical Enterprise Vault events in the Application Event Log.

You must already have a working Microsoft SCOM installation before you can install the Enterprise Vault Management Pack.

You can also use SCOM to monitor all the alerts that are on the Monitoring tab in Site Properties. To do so, you start by enabling the monitoring in Site Properties.

The alerts are written as critical events to the Application Event Log.SCOM monitors the event log for those events. The SCOM monitoring rules are enabled by default.
