Is your hope to pull all the event data directly from SCOM? Or are do you just need to get eventlogs from each server?; ▶ Reply to This

we need to pull all the event data directly from SCOM.

Our client have many server that monitored by SCOM

They really want to use Splunk to get the all server data that had pulled by SCOM.

They want to combine, not replace the SCOM with splunk.

Any clue for this?

Thx.; ▶ Reply to This

This won't persist alert data however. A second way, and one more preferred requires SCOM R2 to enable objects in SCOM to search Splunk using a search string. Results populate in SCOM, and everyone is happy. I am sure that Splunk can interact with the SCOM API, though I have not done it yet myself. What version of SCOM are you using?; ▶ Reply to This

I think about using script to mining data from SCOM database (MSSQL Server) and get the specific table that SCOM use to record the log or data about servers it manage, but not to sure if this can done, since i don't know exactly how to mining data from database server using bat script. If this method is right, can anyone share about this? Thanks; ▶ Reply to This
