What to do next
Complete the procedure described in Import the View Management Packs on the SCOM Server.
View Management Packs
View management packs enable you to use SCOM to monitor and manage the state of View
components.
Table 41. View Management Packs
View Management Pack Description
VMware.View.Discovery.mp
Contains the agent that discovers instances of View Server installations.
VMware.View.Monitoring.mp
Contains the views and monitors that you can use with View in the Operations
Manager console.
VMware.View.Library.mp
Contains class and relationship definitions for the managed objects in View.
VMware.View.Image.Library.mp
Contains graphics that represent the classes defined in
VMware.View.Library.mp.
The View management packs are installed in the C:\Program Files\VMware\VMware
View\Server\extras\ManagementPacks directory on a View Connection Server instance or security
server when you install the View Connection Server software.
The View management packs require the default System management pack that is installed with SCOM
and the management pack for Microsoft Windows Server Base OS System Center Operations Manager
2007.
Import the View Management Packs on the SCOM Server
You must import the View management packs on the SCOM server to use SCOM to monitor and manage
the state of View components.
Important McAfee VirusScan Enterprise 8.0i blocks the operation of Visual Basic scripts that SCOM
uses. For more information and details about the available patch, go to
