OWSUG User Group Meeting – Microsoft System Center Data Protection Manager 2007 SP1

by

 

OWSUG is having a meeting tomorrow night. I would suggest if you are in the Ottawa area, checking it out. DPM is a great product and worth the free pizza. Unfortunately, I won’t be able to attend. I am in the middle of a moving and a few other things on my plate, so I can’t get the time to go up.  I did make it up for the security presentation earlier in the month, and I will post some photos from it. It might not be until after I move though.

Topic: Cross Platform Monitoring with OpsMgr 2007

Description:

Monitoring with Operations Manger 2007 is not limited to Windows Computers.  The capabilities of Operations Manager extend far beyond.  For the first time as an agent based solution native to Operations Manager, Unix systems can be monitored.  Local resources like CPU, memory, disk can be monitored. Like the Windows Event Logs the syslog can also be monitored.  Integration with Operations Manager even includes tasks which are performed locally on the agent managed systems.  There is even integration with the reporting subsystem.  See what is new with Cross platform monitoring in System Center Operations Manager!
