The Microsoft System Center Operations Manager (SCOM) connector integrates Oracle Enterprise Manager with Microsoft SCOM through web services. Using this connector you can create, update or close alerts on the SCOM system for any event generated in Enterprise Manager, which ensures an active synchronization between SCOM and Enterprise Manager. Events in Enterprise Manager are equivalent to alerts in the SCOM system.
There are different version-specific connectors that are used to integrate Enterprise Manager with Microsoft System Center Operations Manager (SCOM). This document provides the instructions for installing and maintaining all the different types of SCOM connectors. Most of the information contained in this document is common and applicable to all SCOM connector types. Any sections that are for a specific connector type will be clearly identified. There is one connector for integrating with SCOM 2012, and there are two different connectors for integrating with SCOM 2007:
For SCOM 2012, the SCOM 2012 connector is for integrating Enterprise Manager with all versions of SCOM 2012.
For SCOM 2007:
The SCOM 2007 pre-R2 connector is for integrating Enterprise Manager with SCOM 2007 RTM and SP1 versions.
The SCOM 2007 R2 connector is for integrating Enterprise Manager with SCOM 2007 R2.
There are some differences between SCOM 2007 and SCOM 2012 so there is some information that will be different for the SCOM 2007 connectors versus the SCOM 2012 connector. Appendix E, "SCOM 2007 Connector," contains sections that are specific to SCOM 2007 that will be referenced throughout the document.
The connector monitors all events sent from Oracle Enterprise Manager and automatically updates alert information in SCOM. The connector supports the following features:
Sharing of event information from Oracle Enterprise Manager to Microsoft SCOM.
Customization of event to alert mappings between Oracle Enterprise Manager and Microsoft SCOM.
Synchronization of event changes in Oracle Enterprise Manager with the alerts in Microsoft SCOM.
Once an alert is created in SCOM for an event in Enterprise Manager, for subsequent updates in event severity, there is a choice between opening a new alert in SCOM or annotating the original alert in SCOM.
This connector supports the following versions of Oracle Enterprise Manager and Microsoft SCOM:
Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control 12c Release 2 (12.1.0.2.0) and higher versions.
