You'll need a beefy machine for Scom and it's database. Same for SCCM but if you're planning both, three servers each with about 12GB RAM would be fine.

Moss Sent: Tuesday 18 July 2017 13:11 To: blind-sysadmins@lists.hodgsonfamily.org Subject: [Blind-sysadmins] OpsView Atom VS. SCOM Hi all, I'm curious about this. All of our hardware is either Dell (for servers and storage) and Ubiquiti (for networking). Dell, being the awesome vender they are, have one of the most comprehensive management platforms I've ever seen in OpenManage. The point here is . seemingly, I've not been able to find an opsView plugin that connects with OME/OMSA/OMCI at all . SCOM has one, but is awfully resource intensive (I think?) for only about 20 or so VMs (more are stood up all the time considering experiments are occurring all the time around here.) Any advantages with OpsView over SCOM either for accessibility, resource usage, or others? Any reason we should ditch OpsView for SCOM? SCOM seems to have more integrations with other products than OpsView does. _______________________________________________ Blind-sysadmins mailing list Blind-sysadmins@lists.hodgsonfamily.org https://lists.hodgsonfamily.org/listinfo/blind-sysadmins
