This book is your most complete source for in-depth information about Microsoft System Center Operations Manager 2007!

System Center Operations Manager 2007 Unleashed is a comprehensive guide to System Center Operations Manager (OpsMgr) 2007. Like its MOM 2005 predecessor, OpsMgr 2007 helps you implement operations management, but with a far different and more holistic approach from MOM 2005?s focus on individual servers.

This book guides you through designing, deploying, and configuring OpsMgr 2007. You will find detailed information and hands-on experience on topics such as estimating database sizes and designing redundant OpsMgr configurations. You learn how to tackle challenges such as setting up ACS, establishing client monitoring, using and creating synthetic transactions and distributed applications, and developing management packs and reports.

Size your OpsMgr databases Architect for redundancy and performance Install or migrate to OpsMgr 2007 Secure OpsMgr Back up OpsMgr components Understand how monitors and rules work Manage different aspects, including ACS, client monitoring, synthetic transactions, and distributed applications Extend OpsMgr Develop management packs and reports

The standard bearer for Operations Manager References

This is the most comprehensive OpsMgr book on the market. This book contains more real world information than the Microsoft white papers and runs circles around the Mastering Operations Manager offering.

Operations Manager Unleashed offers excellent guidance for planning your deployment including database sizing tips. In addition topics such as deployment and operations are thoroughly covered. Insight on management pack tuning, step by step guides on alerting and some of the best advice on the ACS feature are included. You will have more than enough information at your fingertips to get the most out of your OpsMgr investment. Think of this book like the Pocket Consultant series that Microsoft has for Exchange, Windows etc: it's not meant to be read cover to cover, but will provide you with advice at the right time.

In short if you have already invested thousands of dollars in System Center Operations Manager, spend the extra $40 and get the best available guide for this product. (Strange that Microsoft Press doesn't have a admin companion for OpsMgr)

Great Book

I have been working on a project at work for months now involving System Center Operations Manager 2007 (SCOM) and I purchased this book in hopes that it would fill in some gaps from Microsoft's documentation. It has done so marvelously. This book has solved a lot of minor issues. It is clearly written, has good examples to follow and has a lot of information. I recommend anyone working with the software to pick up a copy (everyone on my project has)

An excellent resource

This book has been a valuable tool in both revising for 70-400 SCOM exam and maintaining my SCOM infrastructure. All levels of complexities are covered from single server deployments to huge scalable solutions.

It contains information on all areas of SCOM and general network administration, as well as helpful weblinks every few pages to internet resources on the subject. In most examples this book will walk you through the GUI for completing a task, and will cap it off nicely with a powershell cmdlet for those of you who like to streamline the power of two great products.

The only negative I've found with SCOM Unleashed is a couple grammatical errors, but I could not take a star off for this! A 5-Star book for a 5-star application. Suitable for those of you just starting with SCOM or already serious knee deep in alerts from every area of your network.

Thanks for another great book.
