Hi,
It would be great if we could establish that the FME Server system is stable and healthy using a SCOM Management Pack.
We are maintaining our servers, running critical systems, using Microsoft SCOM. For this, critical applications usually provide a SCOM, Management Packs (https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh212794(v=sc.12).aspx) to support this kind of maintainance. These management packs include the "business logic" for the monitoring of the various monitoring areas. Many default Management Packs are supplied by Microsoft and 3rd party vendors, that can be used directly in SCOM.
Is it a good idea to develop such a SCOM management pack Question for FME Server? At the moment we consider building a custom setup that uses Windows Eventlog (which can be monitored by SCOM). For critical FME Workspaces that works OK since they can trigger a notification that results in writing a Windows Event. Trouble with that solution is that, for user jobs, we can not be sure the SCOM polling request is handled in time since the system load can vary.
