QUESTION 51
Hotspot Questions
Your company help desk uses System Center 2012 Service Manager to manage and track problems.
You need to ensure that the manager of the help desk is notified automatically when a high-priority incident is updated.
What should you configure? To answer, select the appropriate configuration in the answer area.
Answer: 
Explanation:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff460891.aspx
Before notifications are sent, first configure each notification channel, such as the settings for Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP).
Notification messages are sent based on a notification template.
Therefore, you will need to create a notification template.
You can then use the Notification Subscription wizard to subscribe a group of users to a notification that will be sent whenever the changes that you specify occur.
Finally, you can verify that a notification is sent by manually generating the change.
QUESTION 52
Your role of Systems Administrator at ABC.com includes the management of the company’s private cloud.
The private cloud is hosted on an internal System Center 2012 infrastructure.
System Center 2012 – Operations Manager (SCOM) is used to monitor all network devices.
The network has a leased line connection to your ISP.
A router managed by the ISP connects the leased line to the LAN.
The router is configured to allow only the ISP to access the configuration of the router to comply with the security policy of the ISP.
You want to use System Center 2012 – Operations Manager (SCOM) to monitor the router and alert you if the router goes offline.
You need to configure SCOM to discover the router while adhering to the ISP security policy.
Which access mode should you use?
A. SNMPv2 only.
B. ICMP only.
C. ICMP and SNMPv2.
D. SNMPv2 and SNMPv3.
Answer: B
Explanation:
This is a tricky question, but the answer is B, ICMP (ping) only. The question says “Operations Manager (SCOM) is used to monitor all network devices.”… This made me think that the answer had to be both ICMP & SNMPv2 (C), but that is wrong! It is wrong because if we specify that a device uses both ICMP and SNMP, Operations Manager must be able to contact the device by using both methods or discovery will fail. So it has to be B.
Also worth noting that in Operations Manager, only ONE network discovery rule can be running per Management/Gateway server. Each server can only run one network discovery.
Here’s a good post regarding network discovery in SCOM. http://blogs.technet.com/b/ptsblog/archive/2011/11/28/network-monitoring-with-system-center-operationsmanager-2012.aspx

Drag and Drop Questions
Your company has a private cloud that is managed by using a System Center 2012 Operations Manager infrastructure.
You need to ensure that members of a group named Group1 can resolve printing alerts by using the Operations Manager console.
The solution must minimize the number of Operations Manager permissions assigned to Group1.
Which three actions should you perform in sequence? (To answer, move the appropriate actions from the list of actions to the answer area and arrange them in the correct order.)
Answer: 
Explanation:
1. Import the Windows Server Print Server Management Pack – Required for monitoring printing
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc181012.aspx
2. Create an Operator User Role – Required to add Group1 to SCOM
3. Scope the User Role – To set this role to access print alerts only
No – Create an event viewer alert, technically feasible to set logging of print queues and then monitor events but Microsoft always asked for the BEST solution, hence the Print MP
No – Create a Subscription, there is no mention of notifications in the question
No – Create a run as account, the question says resolve the print ALERT not the fault itself
QUESTION 56
Your company has a datacenter in Los Angeles that contains a System Center 2012 Operations Manager infrastructure.
You create three unsealed management packs named Pack1, Pack2, and Pack3.
You create an override for Pack1.
You create a group in Pack2.
You need to apply the override for Pack1 to the group in Pack2.
What should you do before you apply the override?
A. Seal Pack1.
B. Create a new class in Pack3.
C. Create a new class in Pack1.
D. Seal Pack2.
E. Create a new class in Pack2.
Answer: D
Explanation:
When you create a group, you save it to an unsealed management pack. However, an element in an unsealed management pack, such as a group, cannot reference an element in a different unsealed management pack, such as an override or a view. If you are going to use a group to target an override or scope a view, you must either save the group to the same unsealed management pack as the override or view, or you must seal the management pack that contains the group. If you save the group to the same unsealed management pack as the override or view, you can only use that group for overrides and views that are also contained in that unsealed management pack. If you seal the management pack that contains the group, you can reference that group from other unsealed management packs. However, you cannot easily change any group settings in the sealed management pack or add new groups to the sealed management pack.

How to Create a Parent Incident from an Incident Form
In SystemCenter2012-ServiceManager, one way a help desk analyst can create a parent incident is when an existing incident is already opened. You can create a parent incident using the following steps. A parent incident serves as a container for several incidents. The following procedure is performed on an incident that is neither a parent incident nor a child incident.
Afterward, a new parent incident is created and the existing incident is converted to a child incident.
To create a parent incident from an incident form
1. In the Service Manager console, open the Work Items workspace, and in the Work Items pane, expand Incidents.
2. Select any Incident Management view that contains active incidents, and then select an incident.
3. In the Tasks pane, click Edit to open the incident.
4. In the Tasks pane, click Link to New Parent Incident to open the Link to New Parent Incident dialog box.
5. In the Link to New Parent Incident dialog box, select a template to create the new parent incident with, and then click OK.
For example, select Networking Issue Incident Template, and then click OK.
6. In the Title box, type a new description or modify the description that is inserted by the template.
For example, type Network Outage in Bldg 773.
7. In the Affected user box, select the user who reported this incident. For example, select Joe Andreshak.
8. In the Alternate Contact Method box, enter additional contact information for the affected user (optional).
9. The Child Incidents tab appears in the form where you view the child incident that the new parent incident is grouped with and where you can add other child incidents.
10. In the parent incident form, click OK to close it.
11. In the original incident form, click OK to close it.

QUESTION 63
Your company has a private cloud that is managed by using a System Center 2012 Virtual Machine Manager (VMM) infrastructure.
The infrastructure contains several Hyper-V hosts.
You configure VMM to use an update server and to synchronize the updates by using a Windows Server Update Services (WSUS) server.
You attempt to verify compliance with the Sample Baseline for Security Updates.
You view the console as shown in the exhibit. (Click the Exhibit button.)
You need to ensure that you can verify compliance for the Hyper-v hosts.
What should you modify?
A. the update classifications of the update server
B. the Assignment Scope of the baseline
C. the default configuration provider
D. the Network settings of the All Hosts host group
Answer: B
Explanation:
To add a Windows Server Update Server to VMM
In the VMM console, open the Fabric workspace.
On the Home tab, in the Add group, click Add Resources, and then click Update Server.
The Add Windows Server Update Services Server dialog box opens.
In Computer name, enter the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) of the WSUS server (for example, VMMServer01.contoso.com).
Specify which TCP/IP port that the WSUS website listens on for connections (for example, port 8530).
Enter credentials for connecting to the WSUS server.
The account must have administrator rights on the WSUS server.
If necessary, select the Use Secure Socket Layer (SSL) to communicate with the WSUS server and clients check box.
Click Add.
The WSUS server will be added to VMM, followed by initial synchronization of the updates catalog. Depending on how many update classifications and products you chose when you installed the WSUS server, this operation can take a long time, depending on such factors as network traffic and the load on the WSUS server.
To find out the status of the operation, monitor the status of the Add Update Server and Synchronize Update Server jobs in the Jobs window or in the Jobs workspace.
Note
After you enable update management in VMM, you should manage the WSUS server only through VMM, unless you are using a WSUS server in a Configuration Manager environment.
To verify that the WSUS server was added to VMM successfully:
In the Fabric workspace, on the Fabric pane, expand Servers, and click Update Server.
The results pane should display the WSUS server.
In the Library workspace, on the Library pane, expand Update Catalog and Baselines, and then click Update Catalog. The results pane should display the updates that were downloaded during WSUS synchronization.

B. Add the Admin1, Admin2, and Admin3 configuration items to a Service Manager group, and then create a Run As Account.
C. Add the service offering and the request offering to a Service Manager group, and then create a User Role.
D. Add the Admin1, Admin2, and Admin3 configuration items to a Service Manager group, and then create a User Role.
Answer: D
Explanation:
With Role based security scoping in SCSM there is the possibility to configure a controlled environment for different service roles. A SCSM role profile is a configuration set to define access to objects, views in the console, operations they can perform and members of the role (AD User/Group). SCSM components of a User role are:
The security scope: Is the security boundary in SCSM. Boundaries can be set on Group/queue, Class, Property & relationships.
UI filter scope: This filter is for defining what an operator can see in the SCSM console. Limiting the options visible in the console improves the usability. UI filters can be set on console tasks, templates and views.
User role profile: SCSM includes some predefined user profiles who include a set of allowed operations with a class/property/relationship scope over objects.
User Assignment: The members of the user role in SCSM. This can be set for users or groups.
(Always recommended to use groups)

QUESTION 69
Your company has a private cloud that is managed by using a System Center 2012 Operations Manager infrastructure.
The network contains an Active Directory forest named adatum.com.
Operations Manager monitors a server named Operations1.
Operations1 has a computer account in an organizational unit (OU) name ServerOU1.
You create a group named GP1 as shown in the exhibit. (Click the Exhibit button.)
You create a rule named OMRule1 that generates an alert when an error is added to the Application log.
You target OMRule1 to GP1.
You discover that alerts fail to be generated when errors are added to the Application log on Operations1.
You need to ensure that an alert is generated when an error is added to the Application log on Operations1.
What should you modify?
A. the target of OMRulel1
B. the dynamic membership of GP1
C. the category of OMRule1
D. the explicit membership of GP1
Answer: B
Explanation:
How does a rule get to an agent?
For any particular rule/monitor, OpsMgr will enumerate all instances of the target class and apply the rule to each. If there are no instances of the target class on a particular agent, then the rule will do nothing. It’s that simple.
If I can’t target groups, why are they listed when I select a target for a rule?
Groups are classes just like any other. They’re singleton classes where the class and the instance are one and the same, but they are classes nonetheless which is why they show up in the list with all other classes. There are really very few circumstances where you will target a rule at a group though.
What if I do target a group?
You can apply a rule/monitor directly to a group, but it will execute against the group object itself. OpsMgr will not enumerate members of the group and apply the rule to each. Any rules targeted at groups will actually operate on the Root Management Server since groups have no host and unhosted objects are managed by the RMS.
How do I target some group of objects then?
To the specific question of how to get a particular rule/monitor to a subset of components, you have two basic options. Let’s say for example, you have a particular subset of web sites that you need a particular rule to apply.
You could target that rule at the IIS 2003 Web Site class for example, but that would apply the rule to all instances of that class. It would probably apply to sites that you didn’t want.
Option 1 would be to create a new class and target the rule at the class. In the case of an IIS site, this would mean that you would need to go to the Authoring Console or raw XML and create a new class and discovery.
That’s a more advanced solution that most customers will do and probably overkill anyway. Option 2 is the create a rule target at the whole class and disable it. Create a group with the sites you want and create an override for that group to enable your rule. This might sound like a workaround, but it’s a completely valid solution.
How do I know if I’m selecting the right target?
The easiest method to validate you are using a target that actually has instances is to use the Discovered Inventory view in the Operations Console prior to creating your rule/monitor. In the Actions pane is an option called “Change target type…” that will bring up the same Select a Target Type dialog box that you see when you select the target for a rule/monitor. This view will list all instances of the target class you select.
You can validate which agents have an instance of that class and how many instances each has. If there are no instances listed, then the rule isn’t going to do anything. If there are instances, then you not only be confident that the rule/monitor will execute on the agent, but you can also view the properties of the instance that will be accessible to any rules/monitors targeted at it.

Operations Manager Dynamic Group Examples
In Operations Manager, groups are logical collections of objects, such as Windows-based computers, hard disks, or instances of Microsoft SQL Server.
Groups are populated by explicitly adding objects to the group or dynamically according to criteria you set.
For more information on the use of groups, see Creating and Managing Groups in the Operations Guide. This article provides example of group definitions.
The examples describe the items to select in the Query Builder and the resulting formula.

Drag and Drop Questions
Your company has a private cloud that is managed by using a System Center 2012 infrastructure. The private cloud contains 200 servers that run Windows Server 2008 R2.
All of the servers are managed by Operations Manager.
The private cloud contains an application named App1 that is deployed on-demand to several servers. The servers that run the application are identified by a registry value set during the application’s installation.
You create a monitor that targets all of the servers.
You need to modify the monitor to only affect the servers that have the application installed. Which three actions should you perform in sequence? (To answer, move the appropriate actions from the list of actions to the answer area and arrange them in the correct order.)
Answer: 
Explanation:
In Operations Manager 2007, you can create attributes to define a commonality within a group of objects that you want to monitor. After you create an attribute, you can create a group whose members are only objects that have the commonality described in your attribute. For example, if you want to monitor a set of servers that all have a common registry value, you create an attribute based on that registry value. To find the servers that have that registry value, you create a group that has a dynamic inclusion rule for only those servers that have the newly created attribute and target the group only to the server object type. Operations Manager then checks the registry of each server to see whether that registry value exists. If it does, that server is added as a member of the group.
When you create an attribute, you must select an object type as a target for it.
Operations Manager adds the new attribute to the existing list of attributes for that object type.
If the target you select is from a sealed management pack, the object type also is sealed and the new attribute cannot be added. Instead, Operations Manager creates a new object type to which it adds the new attribute. By default, this new object type is named after the original object type with _Extended appended to the original name. This new object type contains all the attributes of the original object type, in addition to the attribute you are creating.
You can view existing attributes in the Monitoring area of the Operations console.
If the attributes are defined within a sealed management pack, you can view the properties of the attribute but you cannot change them.
The properties of an attribute include information about where the attribute information is stored, such as the registry or through WMI.
You can create a new attribute for any monitored object, and you can change most of the properties of an attribute that you create.
However, the Attribute Type property, which identifies the source of the attribute information such as the registry, cannot be changed after an attribute is created.
