Management packs are the sort of &#8220;plugin&#8221; parts of the System Center platform that do the discovery, monitoring, and management for System Center in addition to containing the help &#8220;knowledge.&#8221; Barry walks us through the life-cycle of a management pack when it&#8217;s executing &#8211; discovery, monitoring, and then executing management tasks as needed &#8211; and then walks us through an overview of how management packs are built. As he notes, the underlying model is based on Microsoft&#8217;s SDM, which Microsoft is using to create the SML standard.<\/p>\n<p><b>Disclaimer:<\/b> Microsoft&#8217;s STB group is a client and commissioned RedMonk to film the IT Forum videos.<\/p>\n<p><!-- technorati tags start --><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:right;font-size:10px\">Technorati Tags: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.technorati.com\/tag\/managementpacks\" rel=\"tag\">managementpacks<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.technorati.com\/tag\/Barcelona\" rel=\"tag\">Barcelona<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.technorati.com\/tag\/itforum07\" rel=\"tag\">itforum07<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.technorati.com\/tag\/Microsoft\" rel=\"tag\">Microsoft<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.technorati.com\/tag\/SystemCenter\" rel=\"tag\">SystemCenter<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.technorati.com\/tag\/TechEd- ITForum\" rel=\"tag\">TechEd- ITForum <\/a><\/p>\n<p><!-- technorati tags end --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An overview of &#8220;management packs&#8221; the components that extend System Center Operations Manager.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[35],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1078","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-the-analyst-life"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/redmonk.com\/cote\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1078","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/redmonk.com\/cote\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/redmonk.com\/cote\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/redmonk.com\/cote\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/redmonk.com\/cote\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1078"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/redmonk.com\/cote\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1078\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/redmonk.com\/cote\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1078"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/redmonk.com\/cote\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1078"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/redmonk.com\/cote\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1078"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
