SCOM 2007 R2 Exchange 2010 SP1 MP

 
Exchange Server 2010 Monitoring Management Pack was released 6th April 2011(version 14.02.0071.0).



Update notes:
  • Updates were added throughout this guide to make it more comprehensive and to make it apply to the code changes in Exchange 2010 Service Pack 1 and the latest version of the Exchange 2010 Management Pack. Capacity planning and performance reports   New reports dig deep into the performance of individual servers and provide detailed information about how much capacity is used in each site 
  • SMTP and remote PowerShell availability report   The management pack now includes two new availability reports for SMTP client connections and management end points
  • New Test-SMTPConnectivity synthetic transaction   In addition to the inbound mail connectivity tasks for protocols such as Outlook Web App, Outlook, IMAP, POP, and Exchange ActiveSync, the Management Pack now includes SMTP-connectivity monitoring for outbound mail from IMAP and POP clients
  • New Test-ECPConnectivity view
  • Views for the Exchange Control Panel test task are now included in the monitoring tree
  • Cross-premises mail flow monitoring and reporting   The Management Pack includes new mail flow monitoring and reporting capabilities for customers who use our hosted service
  • Improved Content Indexing and Mailbox Disk Space monitoring   New scripts have been created to better monitor context indexing and mailbox disk space. These new scripts enable automatic repair of indexes and more accurately report of disk space issues
  • The ability to disable Automatic Alert Resolution in environments that include OpsMgr connectors   When you disable Automatic Alert Resolution, the Correlation Engine won't automatically resolve alerts. This lets you use your support ticketing system to manage your environment
  • Several other updates and improvements were also added to this version of the Management Pack, including the following
  • Suppression of alerts when the alerts only occur occasionally was added to many monitors
  • Most of the event monitors in the Exchange 2010 Management Pack are automatically reset by the Correlation Engine. Automatic reset was added to those event monitors so that issues aren't missed the next time they occur. For a list of the event monitors that are not reset automatically
  • Monitoring was added for processes that crash repeatedly
  • Additional performance monitoring was added for Outlook Web App
  • Monitoring of Active Directory access was improved
  • Monitoring of anonymous calendar sharing was added
  • Reliability of database offline alerts was improved
  • Monitoring for the database engine (ESE) was added

Note:
During the installation correlation service will be installed, so you'd better install it on RMS.
UAC trouble: run this management pack installation via cmd runned as Administrator.
Read management pack guide, there're lots of interesting things.
