If we are concerned about keeping our Microsoft Windows environment up to date and controlled, we can also help ourselves with monitoring to control the pending patches that our Servers have in Windows Update. Let's continue to centralize everything we can in our management panel, let's control all our infrastructure from Nagios or Centreon and live more relaxed!
Once we have our Windows computers monitored, perhaps we are interested in monitoring something as critical as the services they offer, No? Also, through SNMP we will be able to consult if SQL services, Exchange or any other service that has your computer installed is up or down.
In this document we will start with something easy, we are going to monitor our first Windows computer, whether it is a Desktop or a Server. We will monitor the basics through SNMP, be CPU usage, RAM, Disk, Net, Swap Memory and Ping. With this we will have a first base to then add more elements that we need to monitor!!!
I leave you this post because a client has asked me to do it on several occasions and so I leave it for you 😉 too If we need to expand a virtual hard drive (Vhd) that is shared across multiple virtual machines, typically for cluster use, we will remember that we have the SCSI controller in Bus Sharing and that the disk is created in Eager Zeroed! We will follow these steps to expand this album.
I leave you a piece of Oscar Mas's document, We hope you are interested! One of the most important things in any system we implement, is the monitoring of said system. Microsoft and Citrix, give us the possibility to monitor our systems, using the System Center Operations Manager tool, better known as SCOM. For those of us who are old in the trade, we will know this tool as MOM (Microsoft Operations Manager).
I'm Oscar Mas and I want to show you how a DFS replication would be carried out (DFS-R), which replicates the data between two servers and one of them will be responsible for managing user access to resources. These types of systems are ideal for replicating the data of our XenDesktop users.
Now that Christmas is approaching and the end of the year for companies, What better than to invest a little in training! I leave you with one of these books that is worth checking out, to fully exploit the GPOs of our beloved Active Directory… Xavier Genestós brings us this dark world closer to this dark world in a simple way with magnificent explanations and practical examples.
As we all know, Time service is the most important service in any network, of any system, A synchronized clock on all computers is the minimum we can have for everything to work and also have all internal systems correctly synchronized. Normally we will have a network time server that will get the time from an external clock and provide it internally.
