Activating the Policies in Operations Connector

To activate the policies that were imported into Operations Connector during configuration of the integration services, complete the procedure:

Note: This task is not applicable for HA deployment scenario as the policies are activated automatically.

  1. Log on to the Operations Connector web interface.

  2. Perform the following substep for each applicable policy:

    • To activate a policy, select it and click the (Activate) icon in the toolbar, or right-click it and select Activate from the context menu.

    Depending on which integration services are configured in OpsCx for Microsoft SCOM, a subset of the following policies are applicable:

    • OpsCx<InstanceID> (3.02) - Event Integration

    • OpsCx <InstanceID> (3.02) - Metric Integration

    • OpsCx <InstanceID> (3.02) - Topology Integration

    The <InstanceID> string contains the version and consecutive number of the integrated Microsoft SCOM instance. Example value: SCOM2007_3.

    If the topology integration service is configured, perform the substep also for the following policy:

    • OpsCx <InstanceID> (3.02) - Self Discovery

      You can activate several policies at once by holding the Ctrl key and selecting multiple policies.

  3. Repeat the step 2 for each additional Microsoft SCOM instance that OpsCx for Microsoft SCOM is integrated with.

    If you deactivate a policy for collecting Microsoft SCOM data, the data continue to be collected while the policy remains inactive. The processing and forwarding of the accumulated data resumes when you reactivate the policy.
