Day 12 – Tracking Changes in MOM 2005

I hope everyone is having a peaceful holiday. For the 12th day of Christmas, a simple management pack to track changes in your MOM 2005 configuration. DESCRIPTION This was actually spawned from some individual scripts I put together a few months ago cleaned up and rolled into a management pack to eliminate user configuration for those less familiar with MOM. Scripts in this MP query the Onepoint database to track changes in MOM server and management pack configuration from the previous 60 minute period. WHERE clauses in the T-SQL in the scripts filter on time last modified (changes in last 60 min only) to minimize performance impact to the MOM Onepoint database. Rules run once every 60 minutes by default. FEATURES Requires no configuration prior to use. Rules / scripts run locally on server hosting the Onepoint database. Tracks changes to MOM rules, rule groups, global settings, scripts and tasks. Alert / Event Views in the Operator Console to display events alerts in the last 24 hours. Note that the Event rule that triggers alerts is disabled by default. It is only necessary to enable this rule if you want alert notifications via email on changes. If not, just use the Event Views in the Operator Console.
