Ever want to reset SCOM monitors, and wish it was just a simple Reset Button for unhealthy monitors?
I’ve been using Scott Murr’s TechNet gallery loop to maintain my alerts, and ensure monitors are healthy for all my management packs.
The blurb I put in my DS/WA scripts to reset SCOM monitors. I build on Andrew’s methods I didn’t realize (just think much uglier code!)
My PowerShell variables to reset SCOM monitors, includes my Addendum and the core – DNS example provided below (thank you Andrew!)
## Grab the MP, get the Monitors and Rules from the MP, then grab all alerts found inside the Monitors/Rules
$SCOMCoreMP = Get-SCOMManagementPack -DisplayName “Microsoft Windows Server 2016 and 1709+ DNS Monitoring”
$SCOMAddendumMP = Get-SCOMManagementPack -DisplayName “Microsoft Windows Server 2016 DNS Monitoring Addendum”
$SCOMCoreRules = $SCOMCoreMP.GetRules()
$SCOMCoreMonitors = $SCOMCoreMP.GetMonitors()
$SCOMAddendumRules = $SCOMAddendumMP.GetRules()
$SCOMAddendumMonitors = $SCOMAddendumMP.GetMonitors()
$SCOMCoreReportAlerts = Get-SCOMAlert | ? { ($_.Name -in $SCOMCoreRules.DisplayName) -or ($_.Name -in $SCOMCoreMonitors.DisplayName) }
$SCOMCoreReportAlerts.Count
$SCOMAddendumReportAlerts = Get-SCOMAlert | ? { ($_.Name -in $SCOMAddendumRules.DisplayName) -or ($_.Name -in $SCOMAddendumMonitors.DisplayName) }
