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 ®.

Global Service Monitor (GSM) checks the availability of web-based applications from different geographies across the world. Why is that important? It gives an insight in to the end user’s experience, and how well the application works for them. It also allows the monitoring expert to isolate network from application issues. And the best news? SCOM takes that awesome data from GSM and beams it into the console.
