Can someone provide detail instructions on how to monitor HP Hardware that has ESX installed for SCOM 2012? I dont want to pay for any third party products such as Veeam. I'm only interested in the Hardware monitoring

Hi, HP ProLiant Server and BladeSystem Management Packs for Microsoft System Center Operations Manager 2007 http://h18013.www1.hp.com/products/servers/management/mom2007/ I don't know if SCOM 2012 is supported, most SCOM MP for 2007 work with SCOM 2012. Ask HP Support if you want to be 100% sure. Please remember to click Mark as Answer on the post that helps you, and to click Unmark as Answer if a marked post does not actually answer your question.
