After You Import the Management Pack
Applies To: Operations Manager 2007
After the DNS MP has been imported, you might see a few of the following critical alerts in the Active Alerts view. This is an expected behavior and this simply means that you need to adjust certain parameters for some monitors by creating overrides to some of the parameters.
When you create overrides, make sure that you use a valid “host” that can be resolved by your domain DNS Servers, and change the querytype to NS, SOA or A depending upon the record types for that host on the DNS Server.
The following list shows you how to correlate alerts with monitors and the parameters that require additional custom configurations. You can find more details on the definitions of these parameters on the Knowledge tab of their Properties dialog box and in the Optional Configuration section in this guide.
