Service Map - Setting up SCOM management group

 

It's time to get my SCOM MG running Service Map

Nothing like seeing what an application actually does, mapping ports a server is using, and who the server talks to!

Click 'Add workspace'

Paste in your Tenant ID, Application ID, and Service Principal Key that you set up prior

Click Next

 

 

Verify Workspace Information

Two options - if you don't have any Windows Computer based groups in your MG, skip down to Server Selection

 

If there are Machine Groups to add, click 'Add/Remove'

 

 

Click Next to select individual servers

Click Add

Click OK to close window

 

 

Click Next to move to next window

 

NOTE

  • Speed to fetch information is based on a rule see docs site
  • In the Server Selection window, you configure the Service Map Servers Group with the servers that you want to sync between Operations Manager and Service Map. Click Add/Remove Servers.

For the integration to build a distributed application diagram for a server, the server must be:

  • Managed by Operations Manager
  • Managed by Service Map
  • Listed in the Service Map Servers Group
