Answer to Question 1:
Part A
SCOM stands for Microsoft system center operation manager can be defined as collection
of system management products (Greene, 2016). It helps in managing various end to end
products and services which are related to IT infrastructure in an enterprise. IT infrastructure
tends to play a key role in business continuity of a given enterprise (Mohammed, 2015). SCOM
aims to provide various kind of important information related to computer health, anti-virus
software and lastly issues related to it. It is considered to be useful in various large enterprise
which comes up with complex and big IT infrastructure. Large enterprise focuses on deployment
of large and complex and SCOM is very beneficial in this case (Bannan, 2016). In large
organization it is not possible to keep a track of each and every single computing sources. So in
this particular scenario SCOM can be beneficial for monitoring a large number of computing
resources. Microsoft system center comes up with sub-unit which is known to be a management
group (Strazdinsy et al., 2017). It comes up with certain number of units like management server,
operational database, database of warehouse and lastly reporting server. Management server is
mainly responsible for proper kind of configuration of the given management group,
communication and lastly administration of agents and database (Ibrahim et al., 2016). A
management group comes up with various kind of server which totally depends on various kind
of server management. It totally depends on size of computing environment. The agents are
needed for collecting data which totally depends on size of computing environment. The agents
are mainly involved in collecting the data and sending proper kind of alert.
A basic SCOM installation comes up with various kind of components (Ellis, 2015). A
management server is needed for handling some essential administration and connecting it with

database (Ibrahim et al., 2016). Operational database aims to provide SQL with proper and
current kind of reporting. Data warehouse aims in holding SQL data which is being provided at
the time of long-time holding (Rădulescu, 2014). A report server mainly needs queries the given
database and can easily provide various kind of detail related to delivery to different
administrators. IT department can easily install these particular components which are there on
one server and various server required for scalability.
In system center operation manager, various kind of user can easily make use of method
which is needed to assign the proper kind of rights to an individual (Tradat et al., 2017). It is
mainly done for accessing monitoring of data and carrying out large number of actions. Roles of
users are designed in such a way they can be easily used for accessing and carrying out large
number of activities on the same given group. Operation manager administrator comes up with
proper right which can be used for viewing and monitoring of data in proper way. Roles of users
are created by making use of role wizard (Krstevski, 2014). In this wizard, an individual need to
configure the active directory security group which is assigned by making use of roles. It can be
used for making use groups which are needed for monitoring groups for monitoring the access of
user and specific task. Dashboard and views are required for understanding the roles in each and
given access (Liu, Wang & Ma, 2014).
Part B
An operation manager is well-known enterprise platform for monitoring which is
required for monitoring various kind of infrastructure and workload (Meena, Singh & Bharadi,
2016). User is generally aligned to access and monitor data within the given operation. So
various kind of issues of escalation can easily support for tier or development of application
which is revenant to their given role (Parven & Maimani, 2014). Role-based security aims in

creating a platform which can easily limit the privilege which the user can have on various aspect
of operation manager.
Answer to Question 2:
Part A
In System center operation manager, an agent can be easily stated like service which is
generally installed on system (Dong et al., 2015). It mainly aims in configuration of given data
and collection of information which is needed for analysis. It is required for understanding
various kind of objects like SQL based database or any kind of logical disk. It ultimately helps in
measuring the state of monitoring objects like SQL database or any kind of logical disk. It
ultimately helps in executing various kind of demands which are put forward by operation in the
given response to condition (Zhuang et al., 2015). It ultimately helps the operation manager to
monitor various operating system like windows, Linux and lastly Unix. Various components of
IT service are mainly installed on web or controller of active directory. The operation manager
agents are listed as Microsoft monitoring agent-based service (Ramakrishnan & Kaur, 2017).
Microsoft agent service aims in collecting and execution of task and other kinds of workflow in
the given management of pack. In many cases it is seen that service is unable to establish
communication with the management server. Then the given service may tend to run and collect
queues which are required for collection of data. It emphasizes certain number of events which is
totally based monitoring of given computer (Ramakrishnan & Kaur, 2017). When the total
connection is restored then Microsoft agent service agent can easily set collected data to the
given event of server management.
