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.
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.

As I thought. I plan to up my offsite server one of these days to its full 128 gigabytes. Right now it's only got 40 in it, and most of that is being taken up by other stuff. So, in light of that, would you recommend any particular configurations to make the most sense of things? Considering how much SCOM can monitor; not sure whether it's more than OpsView, though, since I've never been able to find a good comparison between the two. I more or less want to ensure that we're not missing anything using one over the other. -----Original Message----- From: Blind-sysadmins [mailto:blind-sysadmins-bounces@lists.hodgsonfamily.org] On Behalf Of Darragh Ó Héiligh Sent: Tuesday, July 18, 2017 8:22 AM To: Blind sysadmins list <blind-sysadmins@lists.hodgsonfamily.org> Subject: Re: [Blind-sysadmins] OpsView Atom VS.
