How to Import a Management Pack in Operations Manager 2007
A Management Pack configures Operations Manager to monitor a specific application, service, or device. When a Management Pack is imported into Operations Manager 2007, it immediately begins monitoring a specific application, service, or device. No additional configuration is required.
Each imported Management Pack requires additional resources from your monitoring and monitored computers. Import only the Management Packs that you need.
To import a Management Pack
Log on to the computer with an account that is a member of the Operations Manager Administrators role for the Operations Manager 2007 Management Group.
In the Operations Console, click the Administration button.
Note
When you run the Operations Console on a computer that is not a Management Server the Connect To Server dialog box displays. In the Server name text box, type the name of the Operations Manager 2007 Management Server that you want the Operations Console to connect to.
Right-click the Management Packs node and then click Import Management Pack(s).
The Select Management Packs to import dialog box displays. If necessary, change to the directory that holds your Management Pack file. Click one or more Management Packs to import from that directory, and then click Open.
In the Import Management Packs dialog box, which displays the Management Packs that you selected, click Add or Remove to edit the list of Management Packs to be imported. When the list is complete, click the Import button.
After the import process is complete, and the dialog box displays an icon next to each Management Pack indicating success or failure of the importation, click the Close button.
The Management Packs pane of the Operations Console lists all imported Management Packs.
