Contoso has a data center in Toronto and 20 offices across Canada. The offices connect to each other by using a WAN link. Each office connects directly to the Internet. Existing Environment Active Directory Environment The network contains an Active Directory forest named contoso.com. The forest contains a single domain. All domain controllers run Windows Server 2012. All servers run Windows Server 2008 Each office contains three domain controllers. Each office is configured as an Active Directory site. System Center 2012 Infrastructure Contoso has a System Center 2012 infrastructure that contains 11 servers. The servers are configured as shown in the following table. Contoso has a private cloud named Cloud1. Cloud1 is managed by using VMM. The following applications run in Cloud1: - Microsoft Exchange Server 2010 - Microsoft SharePoint Server 2010 - A custom manufacturing application named App1 The Hyper-V hosts are managed by using VMM. TOR-H01 and TOR-H02 are nodes in a failover The switches that are part of the network fabric are from various manufacturers and are managed by using SNMPv3. An application named App1 is deployed from a VMM service template that consists of one front- end web server and one back-end database server. App1 processes credit card information. The instance of App1 running in the data center uses two virtual machines named VM1 and VM2. TOR-HOI hosts VM1 and VM2. App1 is managed by using a custom management pack named MP1. The management pack used to monitor App1 contains a distributed application diagram named App1DAD. The service level agreement (SLA) for App1 states that App1 must be available 99 percent of the Problem Statements Contoso identifies the following issues: - Currently, all Operations Manager alerts are sent by email only. Database administrators require alerts to be sent by text message.

Performance and Resource Optimization (PRO)-enabled management packs will be used. - Ensure that users have a self-service portal that provides them with the ability to back up individual virtual machines. Users must receive an email message confirming that the backup is complete. - Ensure that database administrators are alerted by a text message when an error occurs on a server that they manage. The text messages should be delivered regardless of the current network conditions. - Network administrators report that they currently use different tools to monitor the port status on the switches. The network administrators want to manage all of the switches by using Operations Manager. App1 Requirements Contoso identifies the following requirements for App1: - Create an object in the App1 management pack to track the SLA. - Ensure that multiple monitoring thresholds can be used for different instances of Appl. - Ensure that App1 complies with the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS).
