Free eBook: Microsoft System Center Operations Manager Field Experience

A few days ago Microsoft released a new FREE ebook, titled: Microsoft System Center Operations Manager Field Experience.

The book is written by people who have a lot of experience with SCOM. They work on a daily basis in the ‘trenches’ so they know what they’re talking about.

Intended audience (taken directly from the website): ‘…If you’re responsible for designing, configuring, implementing, or managing a Microsoft System Center Operations Manager environment, then this book is for you. This book will help you understand what you can do to enhance your Operations Manager environment, and will give you the opportunity to better understand the inner workings of the product, even if you are a seasoned Operations Manager administrator…’

And: ‘…This book assumes that you have a deep working knowledge of the Operations Manager product and its concepts, that you understand the concept of management packs, and that you are basically familiar with Microsoft Azure as an infrastructure-as-a-service platform. This is a book about best practices, design concepts, how-tos, and in-depth technical troubleshooting. It covers the role of the Operations Manager product, the best practices for working with management packs, how to use the reporting feature to simplify managing the product, how to thoroughly troubleshoot, and how to use and install Operations Manager in a Microsoft Azure Public Cloud environment…’
