If you’ve ever had a well-planned Operations Manager tuning session end in frustration, you are not alone. With everyone in IT seemingly always short on time, scheduling a meeting with multiple teams can kick-off things with some tension, and the process of walking through overrides hasn’t even started. There are useful resources available, depending on what pack your installing and tuning.

If you’ve ever spent days explaining to teams what’s monitored on their servers and hours implementing overrides only to be told that SCOM is still too noisy, you’ll know why we created Easy Tune. SCOM is known for management packs that provide in-depth monitoring for Microsoft and other enterprise technologies, but often the management packs offer too much detail. To be successful with SCOM, you have to tune SCOM and keep it tuned.

Microsoft SCOM is an advertised software for Microsoft Windows® administration, but today we will show you that its base rests on well known monitoring techniques. Just to be clear, we emphasize the term in bold: Microsoft System Centre Operations Manager ®.
