SCCM Secondary Site Certificate Registration

$
0
0

Hi All,

 

New to the forum / QMX world so please go easy :-)

 

I have taken on an existing client environment where the client has already deployed QMX framework (4.0.4.37) with numerous ConfigMgr extentsions installed. The SCCM 2007 hierachy is tiered around network zones with multiple child primaries reporting back to a central primary. Most of the QMX data is flowing through AOK.

 

In the environment there are internal and external DMZ network zones with a Child Primary SCCM server in the internal DMZ and a secondary site server in the external DMZ. QMX Base Framework and the required extensions are installed on both SCCM servers.

 

Non-Windows data is flowing AOK from the internal DMZ but not from the external DMZ.

 

When I run diags on a host in the external DMZ via the QMX Admin Console the error as below is recieved.

 

Call to MAPI_RegisterISVProxyToSCCM did not return the SMS GUID for the ISV Proxy. Please check that you have imported an ISV Proxy Certificate into ConfigMgr

 

From the Config Mgr console I can see that the GUID on the Primary ISV cert is identical to the Secondary ISV cert, but the key values on the certs in the personal cert store on each server are (logically) different.

 

I am assuming that I need to remove the primary SCCM site eXc Software cert currently registered in the secondary site and then register the secondary site eXc Software cert against the secondary site node.

 

Obviously I may have this completely upside down so wanted to confirm with the community;

 

a) that this configuration (framework running simultaneously on a secondary and primary in the same site) is supported.

b) best practice process on certificate registration for this configuration.

 

Regards

Hi,

 

I've tested the vmware extension for scom a while back and now i thought to give it another try. Unfortunatelly the old links (where you could request the license) are not available. Is it still free? If not, how much does it cost?

 

Thank you!

Problem with VM disk space alerts

$

Hi,


I'm getting a lot of " Threshold for Guest Disk usage_critical has been triggered" alerts.
The strange thing is that all my VMs have plenty of free space. Not only can I see that inside the VMs, but RVTools (that queries vCenter) also shows me that all the disks are far away from being full.

The full error is the following:

"Alert description: VMWare3001:  GUEST proxy.domain.local(vm-1056): Threshold for Guest Disk usage_critical has been triggered.  Current value of 95.21 Percent is >  the critical threshold which is set at 95.  VMWare hierarchy parent: Folder Testing(group-v271), Metric details: VMWare Virtual Machine disk usage as a percentage."

Thanks

qmx unable to enroll certificate - android

$
0
0

Hello everyone,

 

Been looking at the QMX these last weeks some, and finally got around to setting up everything and got a hold of our network team to allow the traffic i needed.

Now i'm having somewhat of a struggle.

 

I have followed the manuals for setting up everything, and i have published the web server using our TMG, so i can reach it from the mobile.

 

Web page loads properly, installs the app properly, but then the enroll part fails.

 

I get the certificate page as i should when logging in, and it displays the correct certificate, so that looks ok.

 

But then it fails on the enrollment itself

 

"Unable to enroll. Please try again later or contact your administrator."

 

The MDM service Startup log, looks fine, no errors, just telling me its listening to https://*:443/MDM/

 

The MDM Service log, shows the following:

 

[3] DEBUG Quest.MobileDeviceManagement.ManagementService - Handling Request:/mdm/trust

[3] DEBUG Quest.MobileDeviceManagement.ManagementService - Assigning TrustRequestHandler to request

[3] DEBUG Quest.MobileDeviceManagement.BaseRequestHandler - DeviceType for Agent Apache-HttpClient/QMX Android MDM Client 1.0 (java 1.4) is Android

[3] DEBUG Quest.MobileDeviceManagement.TrustRequestHandler - Sending certificate chain as response to Android device.

[3] DEBUG Quest.MobileDeviceManagement.ManagementService - Handling Request:/mdm/enroll

[3] DEBUG Quest.MobileDeviceManagement.ManagementService - Assigning EnrollRequestHandler to request

[3] DEBUG Quest.MobileDeviceManagement.BaseRequestHandler - DeviceType for Agent Apache-HttpClient/QMX Android MDM Client 1.0 (java 1.4) is Android

[3] DEBUG Quest.MobileDeviceManagement.EnrollRequestHandler - Sending enrollment response to client

 

There is nothing happening in the log from when i see the certificate, til it fails.

 

Anyone here tried publishing the service through a TMG? Are there any special settings i need to do for it?

According to our TMG man, there are no errors or warnings in the TMG logs itself.

Are there any other logs i could have a look at that might give me a pointer towards why it fails?

 

I can see the following in the log however.

"WARN  Quest.MobileDeviceManagement.Apple.AppPackageIdCache - App cache does not exist."

Might this have something to do with it?

 

 

Best Regards

Eirik

Documentation for the configuration of VMWare inventory via SCCM

Hi All,

 

Have been unable to locate doco specific to the configuration, accounts / access required to configure VMWare host inventory (vCenter, ESX, ESXi) from SCCM via the QMX Framework.

 

I have trawled this site and Google and while I can find SCOM / VMWare / QMX doco, have not found anything pertaining to SCCM?

 

Hopefully it is just that I cant see the forest for the trees.

 

I really need to understand the inventory options and requirements for each of the VMWare platforms.

 

Any help would be appreciated.

What is required to modify in QMX to enable monitoring of MQ Series v6 environments and a single v5 environment?

$

I am running Ops Mgr 2007 R2, with QMX BMF v4.00.534 and the following MP's QMX for MQ Series 7.0.0.1 and eXcSoftware.nonwindows 7.0.0.23.

 

We monitor about 12 different MQ Series Server environments all running MQ v6 fairly well.  However we have an old MQ Series Server environment running v5.3 that we would like to monitor, however the commands for queue depth and other MQ monitors is different and because they are all shared, will not work.

 

What needs to be changed to create a new directory tree for a MQ v5 monitor vs the current MQ v6 monitors?

Monitoring VMware through Vcenter HTTPS issue

Greetings,

 

I am using QMX version 4.0.6 with SCOM 2012 and I am having a problem monitoring VMware guest availability through Vsphere 5 Vcenter using the VIAPI.

 

I see the following message in my logs;

 

20/02/2013 12:57:29:dummy.example.com:VIAPIDiagramming.js, function Process, An error occurred collecting data from https://dummy.example.com:443/sdk, error: The underlying connection was closed: Could not establish trust relationship for the SSL/TLS secure channel.

20/02/2013 12:57:32:dummy.example.com:In file VIAPI.js, function Process, error:  The underlying connection was closed: Could not establish trust relationship for the SSL/TLS secure channel.

 

How can I get QMX to accept the certificate presented by the Vcenter server?

 

Cheers,


Dan.

APC EMU AP9319

I have an APC environmental monitoring unit.  It is an old one.  I am attaching the current MIB.

It has a couple of sensors, but I am getting errors trying to pull the data.

Basically i want to capture and alert off of the humidity/temperature sensors.  But to take this further, i have just bought an AP9340 and an AP9341 for my main data center.  That unit is the same type of device but it will have 12 sensors.

Can this agent support these?  Are there such things as device specific OIDS you can request?  IE dev1 looks for 1 and 2, and dev2 looks for all 12?  Or can it enumerate how many are active and only look for those?

Here is the deal, help me fix this, I guarantee the purchase of more licenses, seriously.

Justin and I could not figure it out over the last two days, I spent all day today rebuilding the environment thinking I missed something....NOT

Code:
Base Framework:  4.0.0.509
HPUX Ext: v7.0.0.9
Oracle Ext: v7.0.0.11

Point:  it WAS working before the upgrade (now re-install).

The problem, after reinstallation (from the SCOM agent to the BASE Framework and extensions).  After a successful SDK connection test, we try a Oracle DB connection test and can NOT get by the following error:

Connect: ORA-12514: TNS:listener does not currently know of service requested in connect descriptor.

OK, so we go to the db server in question and run these commands.

1. lsnrctl services VendavoDTI    (the Instance/SID)
The command completed Successfully

2. sqlplus tesetuser@VendavoDTI
> Password:  testuser1
> SQL
Connection Good, Credentials Good.

3. SQL > show parameter service_names
service_names                    string                VendavoDTI.dti.com

4. sqlplus testuser/testuser1@VendavoDTI
Successful

5. From the Proxy Server, ping dtidbp20
Successful

The listener.log shows this from my connection attempt

TNS-12514: TNS:listener does not currently know of service requested in connect descriptor

6. tnsping VendavoDTI    (executed on the database server)

I attached the tnsnames.ora to this post.

Please....please advise....

Alert filtering

$

Is there an easy way to filter alerts for the Avaya extension pack? We would like to be able to let Telecom admins filter alerts (since there are some that are irrelevant for them). I didn't see a tab with AlertFilter for this extension pack.

Is there a way as well to do correlation between alerts (ex: if a PRI is down, it's normal that the 23 B channels are down as well, so only one alert - PRI down - would be sufficient, but still be able to monitor a single B channels being down)

Thank you

Error installing mpkg file

I am having an issue attempting to push Office 2011 for Mac.  I took the default mpkg file from Microsoft and when I push it, all of the files download successfully; however, when it goes to run I get the following:

 

 

Installing software package "Office Installer.mpkg"...

installer: Error trying to locate volume at /Applications

Return code=1

<computername>:<packageID> qmx$

Error: Failed to install package "Office Installer.mpkg".

 

I am getting the same error on all pkg/mpkg files; however, the DMG I tried (Firefox) worked successfully so that seems to indicate the account I am using can install applications.

 

Any thoughts would be appreciated.  Thank you.

Red Hat Smart Agent Installation

$

Hi,

 

I have been running up QMX in a lab for SCCM with a Red Hat Enterprise Linux server for testing before deploying at a clients site, and have been trying to get the Smart Agent to work.

 

I have the RHEL server working fine with the Virtual Agent.

 

The problem I have, not having a strong Linux background, is that I cannot get the agent installed.  I have followed the QMX Installation Gude, which is kinda vague, and refers to how to install the OSX agent.

 

I have done the following:

 

  • Using WinSCP I created a folder called quest on the RHEL server, and then copied the RHEL Smart Agent files into that folder.
  • I ran chmod +x qmx_sccm_redhat_agent
  • and then attempted to run qmx_sccm_redhat_agent 10.100.1.20 8002, I then get the error command not found.

 

Can anyone offer me some assistance?

CScript Error: Execution of Windows Script Host Failed. Unspecified Error

Hello,

 

We one of our QMX severs, running BFW version 4,0,2,32, is having an issue whereby none of the agents are started.  We have rebooted the server (which is virtual) twice, but we get the same result.

 

If/when we attempt to stary any agent manually, we get the same error prompt:

questerror.bmp

 

We have 3 other QMX servers running the same version of BFW, with more agents and they are running fine.

 

Any ideas what to look at/for, other than upgrading the BFW?

 

Thanks,

Sven

PowerConnect counters in SCOM 2007 R2

$

I've implemented the QMX for Operations Manager and have my Dell PowerConnect servers put into the Administration Console, they are showing up in Operations Manager. 

I'm specifically looking for network utilization, CPU, and the basic vitals for all my PowerConnects.

In the Dell PowerConnect Performance SCOM view, I only get one counter for each PowerConnect.  This object: connectivity, counter:"LATENCY_SECONDS".  Is there a way to get any additional counters? i.e. CPU and utilization rates? 

It seems like a simple request, yet I'm having a hard time finding a product that can unify all of these stats (ideally in SCOM) without logging on to each PowerConnect's web GUI individually.

Thanks,
Jon
