Microsoft Windows Server 2016 and 1709+ Operating System Management Pack: This management pack discovers Windows Server 2016 and 1709+ operating systems.

Summary

The Microsoft Windows Server 2016 and 1709+ Operating System Management Pack monitors the availability and performance of Windows Server 2016 and 1709+ operating systems. By detecting, alerting, and automatically responding to critical events and performance indicators, the Management Pack helps identify, correct, and prevent possible outages related to Windows Server 2016 and 1709+ operating systems. As a result, this Management Pack can play an important role in ensuring that your Windows Server infrastructure and related components are available and working correctly.

By using embedded expertise, this Management Pack highlights performance, health, and availability conditions that indicate problems. In some cases, it can even identify issues before they become critical thus providing you with a level of customer responsiveness that increases the overall availability and performance of your Windows Server infrastructure and related components. Therefore, this Management Pack will reduce the total cost of ownership (TOC) by enabling proactive management and reducing resolution times for the issues identified.

The Microsoft Windows Server 2016 and 1709+ Operating System Management Pack includes the following features and capabilities:

Application Structure

A rich Application Structure is discovered by the Management pack. This Application Structure exposes the relationships between all Windows components and logical devices. For instance, the relationships between the Computer, Operating System, Logical Disks, Partitions, and Physical Disks can all be discovered and viewed from diagram and topology surfaces.

Monitors and Rules

A complete set of Monitors and Rules have been provided to monitor Windows services, components, and infrastructure. The Management Pack includes monitoring capabilities for:

Tasks

A set of commonly used Tasks have been provided to assist in the diagnosis and remediation of issues that affect the availability, performance, and configuration of Windows Server related services and components.

Knowledge

A complete set of Knowledge has been provided for all Monitors, Rules, and Discoveries. For Alert generating Monitors and Rules, you will find Knowledge that will help expedite resolution process. Where applicable, Inline Tasks, Views, and Reports have been added to the Knowledge enable quick diagnostics and the fastest possible resolution.

Reports

A series of reports have been provided which will provide administrators with the ability to take a historical look at the Windows Server 2016 and 1709+ environment.

Configuration

This Management Pack does not require any out-of-the-box configuration. Overrides may be applied to features to modify the out of the box configuration (e.g.: enable/disable monitors and rules, change thresholds, etc.).

Note: This Management Pack depends on the Microsoft Windows Server Library. Therefore, this Management Pack must be imported during or after the import of the Windows Server Library Management Pack.
