Which SCOM integration solution to use?

[Craig_Massey]

Starting from the hardware side and happy to repost elsewhere if another forum is more appropriate.

I need to get SCOM 2012 R2 monitoring ProLiant BL460c Gen9 blades in a C7000 blade chassis.

There are a bewildering and contradictory number of options and recommendations for how to have SCOM monitor the status of an HP Chassis.

Oneview is not available, HP SIM is, but ideally we’d have SCOM talking directly to the hardware.

Which is the appropriate tool to do that?

1. The HP BladeSystem Management Pack?

2. The HP SCOM Integration kit that is a part of the “HP OneView for Microsoft System Center 7.6” download?
3. Something else entirely?

Microsoft System Center Integration Forum is here:

If you don't get any replies here, we can ask the moderators to move the topic there.

I did not spot that one, thank-you.
