Monitoring for Agentless Servers

Applies to: Exchange Server 2007 SP3, Exchange Server 2007 SP2, Exchange Server 2007 SP1, Exchange Server 2007

Topic Last Modified: 2007-11-14

Important:
We do not recommend monitoring agentless servers. There will be some warning alerts as Microsoft Operations Manager (MOM) tries to run this monitoring because a MOM server cannot execute the diagnostic cmdlet rules.

Important:

The information here applies to agentless servers only. Computers that have agents will be included automatically in the following groups according to which Exchange Server roles are installed. When first installed, the Exchange 2007 Management Pack will not monitor agentless servers. To manually monitor an agentless server, add the server to each applicable computer group from the following list.

• Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 All servers
  
• Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 Client Access servers
  
• Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 Edge Transport servers
  
• Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 Hub Transport and Edge Transport servers
  
• Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 Hub Transport servers
  
• Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 Mailbox servers
  
• Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 Mailbox servers - CMS and Physical servers
  
• Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 Mailbox servers - Physical servers
  
• Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 Unified Messaging servers
