SCOM Zombie PSA#22: A reason 4 Multi-Homed Agents

 

One of my customers gave me a requirement some time ago that they wanted to upgrade their MOM 2005 infrastructure to SCOM 2007 R2. There only requirement was that was provided was that there must be a fail-over system incase there is a site isolation.

So after reviewing their current capabilities and other available resources to support their requirements, the option that was best for their environment was two separate management groups separated by geographic locations.

To keep the systems identical, the duplication of work can be a pain at times. And when the site became isolated due to a hurricane, flooding, power outages and other nature disasters that occurred; monitoring continued.

There you go, nothing complicated, just something to think about when you have to provide continuous monitoring for a customer(s). Just happy customers
