cabledguy2007 -> newbie config Q on targets (10/2/2008 4:33:19 AM)

Hi AllWorked a bit with mom 2005 struggling with the transition.  What I need to do is monitor an IIS hosted webapp (called CARS) on a farm of windows 2003 blades.  My group monitors the platform - i.e. hw, os, iis.  Another applications group has to be given access to monitor the app.  But for testing I'll give them some of the platform alerts just to show some progress.I wanted to start with basic alerts and then get into reporting and baselining.  Now I've read the concepts guide and looked through most of the videos at http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/opsmgr/bb498237.aspx but I'm missing the point. So far what I've done is:- create a group of computers- create a test rule that collects current iis connections and disabled it- used the override on the rule to enable it for that group- create a management pack called CARS Servers to hold all this custom stuff.Now I could do the same for monitors and build it up that way.  But what I really want is to use the IIS and windows 2003 management packs but not mess up my existing ones.  Now under authoring I can copy management packs - say call them CARS IIS and CARS OS.  But how do disable all the rules and monitors in my copied ones and then set an override to enable them for the CARS servers.

Ok. I may be totally off on what you want to do, but it sounds like part of your issue is that you want your applications group to get some alerts, but not all. You would do this in SCOM 207 by modifying the Groups and/or Classes section(s) of a new subscription for that group.

you should read the following technet article "Granular Targeting In Operations Manager 2007" by Steve Rachui

Hope this helps!

Thanks Smoss

I'd read a few things but that article really cleared things up.
