The Virtual Machine Manager Self-Service Portal 2.0 SP1 Management Pack helps you manage your self-service portal deployment by monitoring the health of the self-service portal components. For the self-service portal to function correctly, the components must function correctly. The VMMSSP Management Pack alerts you about problems with these components so that you can troubleshoot and repair any problems that occur.
The VMMSSP Management Pack provides the classes, rules and monitors necessary to monitor the health of the VMMSSP deployment. VMMSSP2.0 SP1 is a free, partner-extensible solution that allows you to dynamically pool, allocate, and manage datacenter resources.
Using the VMMSSP Management Pack helps centralize the overall monitoring in the organization to one location, the Operations console. The monitoring pack also provides instructions to end users about how to repair some problems that might be detected while monitoring. This simplifies maintenance and could help reduce the number of support calls.
Feature Bullet Summary:
- Monitored Components
This management pack discovers the three components of VMMSSP (VMMSSP database component, VMMSSP server component, and VMMSSP website component) as well as the Virtual Machine Manager server that supports VMMSSP.
- Alerts
The management pack monitors the health state of the Virtual Machine Manager server and of the two services that comprise the VMMSSP server component (Virtual Machine Manager Self-Service Portal 2.0 service and Virtual Machine Manager Self-Service Portal 2.0 Helper service). The management pack rules capture the most important events that the VMMSSP server component generates, and generate alerts based on that information.
