That’s a rhetorical question, of course the answer will be yes! While Azure Automation is a part of the suite of components in OMS, today you only get the following information from the Azure Automation blade: The blade shows the number of runbooks and jobs from the one Automation Account you have configured.https://gotoguy.blog/2016/02/24/displaying-service-manager-service-requests-stats-in-oms-via-performance-collection-and-operations-manager/Wed, 24 Feb 2016 08:26:00 +0000Jan Vidar Elvenhttps://gotoguy.blog/2016/02/24/displaying-service-manager-service-requests-stats-in-oms-via-performance-collection-and-operations-manager/Following up on my previous blog article on how to collect Service Manager and Incident statistics via Operations Manager to OMS, https://systemcenterpoint.wordpress.com/2016/02/19/collecting-service-manager-incident-stats-in-oms-via-powershell-script-performance-collection-in-operations-manager/ , this blog article will show how to get statistics for Service Requests and display that as Performance Data in OMS. Getting Ready Please see the link above for the first article on getting SCSM data to OMS, and instructions for configuring your Operations Manager environment and SMLets PowerShell module.https://gotoguy.blog/2016/02/19/collecting-service-manager-incident-stats-in-oms-via-powershell-script-performance-collection-in-operations-manager/Fri, 19 Feb 2016 01:18:36 +0000Jan Vidar Elvenhttps://gotoguy.blog/2016/02/19/collecting-service-manager-incident-stats-in-oms-via-powershell-script-performance-collection-in-operations-manager/I have been thinking about bringing in some key Service Manager statistics to Microsoft Operations Management Suite. The best way to do that now is to use the NRT Performance Data Collection in OMS and PowerShell Script rule in my Operations Manager Management Group that I have connected to OMS. The key solution to make this happen are the “Sample Management Pack - Wizard to Create PowerShell script Collection Rules” described in this blog article http://blogs.https://gotoguy.blog/2016/02/02/publish-operations-and-service-manager-consoles-as-azure-remoteapp-programs/Tue, 02 Feb 2016 22:15:35 +0000Jan Vidar Elvenhttps://gotoguy.blog/2016/02/02/publish-operations-and-service-manager-consoles-as-azure-remoteapp-programs/This blog post will show how you can publish System Center 2012 R2 Management Consoles like the Operations Console and Service Console as Azure Remote Apps. I already have an environment in Azure that runs Service Manager and Operations Manager 2012 R2. Now I want remote clients and platforms to be able to run these consoles as remote apps. When planning, I decided to use a Hybrid Collection, and the overall steps was (as documented in https://azure.https://gotoguy.blog/2015/09/24/publish-the-squared-up-scom-web-dashboard-with-azure-ad-application-proxy/Thu, 24 Sep 2015 21:34:10 +0000Jan Vidar Elvenhttps://gotoguy.blog/2015/09/24/publish-the-squared-up-scom-web-dashboard-with-azure-ad-application-proxy/The Scenario Squared Up is a Web based Dashboard solution for SCOM environments, and since its built on HTML5 it works on any device or browser as long as you can connect to the Web Server the solution is installed on. This should be another good scenario for using the Azure AD Application Proxy, as the Squared Up Web Site needs to be installed either on the SCOM Management Server or on a Server that can connect to the Management Server internally.https://gotoguy.blog/2014/11/24/how-to-access-operational-insights-from-windows-phone/Mon, 24 Nov 2014 10:58:10 +0000Jan Vidar Elvenhttps://gotoguy.blog/2014/11/24/how-to-access-operational-insights-from-windows-phone/Microsoft just recently announced the availability of Operational Insights App for Windows Phone: http://www.windowsphone.com/en-us/store/app/operational-insights/4823b935-83ce-466c-82bb-bd0a3f58d865?signin=true The App require that you sign in with a Microsoft Account: Many organizations, as ourselves, are using Organizational Accounts for our Azure and Office 365 services.

Some Distributed Applications contains other DAs, and the SLOs have these DAs as target as well as the top level DA, the “IT” Distributed Application. A major part of this redesign have been going from a single unsealed Management Pack (MP) containing all the DAs, SLOs, Components and Overrides, to a design where I have been using several sealed Management Packs for the Distributed Applications, and using unsealed Management Packs for the Overrides and customizations.
