SCOM-Performance View Chart

Interesting things related to SCOM.

Today one of my colleague came to me stating she got scom alert when disk space was 1% instead she should get on 10%.

Ah! That was something new for me and I was surprised how this happened hence thought lets investigate at what threshold alert was sent.

1St I tired checking server health explorer and see what threshold are set and then went to check overrides. This one gave me information what has set but didn’t answer my question why at 1%.
So took new way that is again went to Windows computer under monitoring tab, Searched for server, than opened Performance Chat and selected legend % logical disk free space and on right side set Time range 3 days. It took few seconds and gave me graph how disk was consumed than on the graph right clicked and selected “Show Alert” which shown me what time alert was initiated and how quickly disk got filled.

How to disable USB Storage ?

Question came. #How to disable USB Drive but USB headphones/Keyboard/Mouse and Data cards should work? Simple:  When administrator says how he will block things using GPO what we do is we edit Group Policy Management template. #Group Policy Management Editor Following option need to be configure. What exactly happens? As we know Windows is all about registry and for each and everything we had one Reg file same thing applies to USB.  For example USB Printer, USB hub, USB headphones for each component we had different registry keys. Now I just want to disable USB storage hence will concentrate on following registry path. #[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\USBSTOR] and mainly START (Dword) By default it is 3 if you modify registry to 4. USB Mass storage will be block. (Cell Phones, Jump drives, Disk and Pen drives will not detect in OS.
