• Open the address to the Report share in a web browser (exp. https://reportserver/reports )
• Create a New folder
• Move reports from "My Reports" to New folder
• New folder and reports should be visible now for all users

Hi,

-

By default Gateway Server initiates connection against Management Server over port 5723 (default port).

GTW > 5723 > MS

In that scenario you have to open Firewall port 5723 (default port) against AD environment where is placed your Management Server.

For some customers this scenario confronts security policy.

In SCOM 2012 we do have the option to change direction of initiation.

You can arrange initiation of connection from Management Server side instead, over port 5723 (default port).

MS > 5723 > GTW

-

How to do that:

During Gateway Server approving command you have to use additional parameter:

/ManagementServerInitiatesConnection=True

-

Example:

Microsoft.EnterpriseManagement.gatewayApprovalTool.exe

/ManagementServerName=<managementserverFQDN>

/GatewayName=<GatewayFQDN>

/ManagementServerInitiatesConnection=True

/Action=Create

-

Voila,

Your Management Server will try to reach Gateway Server, and you can keep your SCOM AD out of drilling holes from outside.

I have faced with issue with Report deployment and event:

Log Name:      Operations Manager
Source:        Health Service Modules
Date:          01/01/2015 3:07:42 PM
Event ID:      31569
Task Category: Data Warehouse
Level:         Error
Keywords:      Classic
User:          N/A
Computer:      xxxx.xxxx.xxxx
Description:
Report deployment process failed to request management pack list from SQL RS Server. The operation will be retried.
Exception 'SoapException': An internal error occurred on the report server. See the error log for more details. ---> An internal error occurred on the report server. See the error log for more details. ---> Access is denied. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070005 (E_ACCESSDENIED))

One or more workflows were affected by this.  

.......

Resolution

Added the SDK (Data Access) account to the Windows Authorization Access Group 
(ManagementServer$ if you are using LocalSystem for SDK account)

ACS filer - my recommendation:

"SELECT * FROM AdtsEvent WHERE NOT (EventId=673 OR EventId=672 OR EventId=836 OR EventId=837 OR EventId=515 OR EventId=674 OR EventId=552 OR EventId=835 OR EventId=521 OR EventId=4614 OR EventId=4371 OR EventId=4610 OR EventId=4611 OR EventId=4619 OR EventId=4613 OR EventId=4620 OR EventId=4621 OR EventId=4932 OR EventId=4933 OR EventId=4647 OR EventId=4648 OR EventId=4662 OR EventId=4688 OR EventId=4689 OR EventId=4696 OR EventId=4768 OR EventId=4769 OR EventId=4770 OR EventId=4771 OR EventId=4772 OR EventId=4776 OR EventId=4779 OR EventId=4931 OR EventId=4954 OR EventId=5159 OR EventId=5152 OR EventId=5157 OR EventId=5447 OR  HeaderUser='System' OR HeaderUser='ANONYMOUS LOGON' OR PRIMARYUSER LIKE '%SVC%' OR PRIMARYUSER LIKE '%$%' OR TARGETUSER LIKE '%$%')"

In this blog post, I would like to publish my Tech Day 2014 (Denmark) session.

Session is covering Upgrading SCOM 2012 SP1 to SCOM 2012 R2.

Product: System Center Operations Managers 2012 Server -- Error 25211.Failed to install performance counters.. Error Code: -2147024809 (The parameter is incorrect.).

Potential solution (worked for me):

- patch your server https://support.microsoft.com/kb/2877211

Looking for PS script to reset all unit monitors (similar as GreenMachine utility for SCOM 2007)

Solution:

We found the script written by scomurr and my friend Adrian Bliss made some modifications.

How to run script:

OpsMgr PS> OpsMgr2012.MonitorReset.ps1 -sdkserver <ManagementServer> -action <REPORT\EXECUTE>

OpsMgr2012.MonitorReset.ps1.txt

Event ID : 20057
Failed to initialize security context for target MSOMHSvc/rms_fqdn The error returned is 0x80090311(No authority could be contacted for authentication.).  This error can apply to either the Kerberos or the SChannel package.

And also this one less frequently:
Event ID : 21016
OpsMgr was unable to set up a communications channel to rms_fqdn and there are no failover hosts.  Communication will resume when rms_fqdn is available and communication from this computer is allowed.

If you see these events  with code (0x80090311), that is mean (trust is corrupted) and agents can not authenticate to MS.

The most common reason is Firewall issue.

(TCP/UDP 88 port (Kerberos) and TCP/UDP 389 port (LDAP)) should be open from Agent to Management Server DCs.

Thanks Mr A!
