Is there a way to view what version of SCOM is installed on an IaaS server through the Azure portal on a particular resource?

Question

Is there any way to pull which version of SCOM is on a virtual machine through the Azure portal? Or do I have to RDP into the machine to get that information?

Answer 1

@Nguyen, Jonathan You can query the SCOM version with Azure Script Extension or with Azure Automation. To get the SCOM Server Version, just execute this PowerShell-Code:

$SCOMVersion = Get-ScomManagementServer | Select-Object Version  

You can then assign the version as a tag to the resource.

# Read existing tags  
$tags = (Get-AzureRmResource -ResourceGroupName MyResourceGroup -ResourceType Microsoft.Compute/virtualMachines -Name MyVMName).Tags  
  
# Define new tag  
$tags += @{Name="SCOMVersion";Value="$($SCOMVersion.Value)"}  
  
# Set the new tag  
Set-AzureRmResource -ResourceGroupName MyResourceGroup -Name MyVMName -ResourceType "Microsoft.Compute/VirtualMachines" -Tag $tags
