We started this year with the announcement of our System Center Operations Manager (SCOM) management packs at Summit. Since then, we’ve been focused on making it as easy as possible for customers to deploy them.
That’s why we’re announcing a pre-configured blueprint of the Citrix SCOM Management Pack for managing and monitoring Citrix License Servers. As with any out-of-the-box blueprints for Citrix workloads, the SCOM Management Pack blueprint enables accelerated time-to-value for IT administrators by offering a standardized set of steps for automated deployment.
Use this validated blueprint as an easy starting point to deploy the License Server Management Pack or modify it to create your own customized blueprint for any of the other Citrix SCOM Management Packs.
The blueprint of Citrix SCOM Management Pack for License Server can be found under the components section with the Blueprint Catalog tab in Citrix Lifecycle Management console.
Administrators can click on the ‘View Info’ link and then ‘Add to Library’ to include it within their environment.
This blueprint essentially covers the deployment of Microsoft SCOM and import of the Citrix SCOM Management Pack on the SCOM server to monitor a Citrix License Server. Management pack installation files are included in the blueprint and with Lifecycle Management, the administrator can be sure they’re on the latest version of the SCOM Management Pack released by Citrix.
