09-10-2009 Update: Kevin Holman has also written a posting about it which is certainly worth the time to read. It gives some in-depth information.
For OpsMgr R2 Microsoft has released an updated MP, version 6.1.7553.0. Microsoft has made it bulletproof so it won’t import in older versions of OpsMgr.
It can be downloaded from here.
As goes with EVERY MP to be imported: RTFM it first before doing anything else with it. As a service to all my readers I have unpacked the msi-file containing the guide and uploaded it to my SkyDrive. It can be download here.
As can be seen in the guide Microsoft has put much effort in to the new MP: (taken directly from the guide)
| Version 6.1.7533.0 of the OpsMgr MP for OpsMgr R2 includes the following changes: Changed the time-out value to 1 minute for recovery tasks associated with the following monitors: - Health Service Handle Count Threshold
- Health Service Private Bytes Threshold
- Monitoring Host Handle Count Threshold
- Monitoring Host Private Bytes Threshold
- Changed the threshold values for the Health Service Handle Count Thresholds and Monitoring Host Handle Count Thresholds monitors to 10,000 on management servers and 6,000 on agents.
- Changed the threshold values for the Health Service Private Bytes Threshold and Monitoring Host Private Bytes Threshold monitors to 1500 MB on management servers and 300 MB on agents.
- Updated the layout and default filters and sort order for a number of views.
- Fixed an issue that was previously preventing all rules related to agentless exception monitoring from generating alerts.
- Added display names, descriptions, and product knowledge where missing.
- Added the rule “Collects Opsmgr SDK Service\Client Connections” to collect the number of connected clients for a given management group. This data is shown in the view “Console and SDK Connection Count” under the folder “Operations Manager\Management Server Performance”.
- Updated a number of monitors and rules to ensure that data is reported to the correct management group for multihomed agents.
The following rules and monitors are now disabled by default as they are generally not actionable: - A GroupPopulator module unloaded due to an unrecoverable error
- Health Service Cannot Find Management Group
- Data Validity Check
- Root Connector Data Validity Check
- Added event collection rule for events 5400, 5401, 5402, 5404 5405, and 5500.
- Updated the alert suppression criteria for the rule “Alert on Dropped MultiInstance Performance Module” in order to significantly reduce the alert volumes generated by this rule and make it easier to identify the root cause.
The monitors listed below have been updated so that the value of the sample must exceed the threshold for a specific number of consecutive samples, as opposed to the average of the samples over the consecutive samples. This will increase the accuracy of the monitors by handling periodic spikes in resource utilization better: - Health Service Handle Count Threshold
- Health Service Private Bytes Threshold
- Monitoring Host Handle Count Threshold
- Monitoring Host Private Bytes Threshold
- Updated the knowledge for the rule “Data Access Service Spn Registration” significantly.
- Fixed the configuration of the rule “IIS Discovery Probe Module Execution Failure” to so that the parameter replacement will now work correctly for alert suppression and generating the details of the alert’s description.

In the coming weeks a similar update will be released for OpsMgr SP1.
