The System Center Operations Manager 2007 Configuration Pack is designed to be used for managing the configuration of Operations Manager 2007 servers. This configuration pack defines recommended configurations based on a number of settings identified through best practice recommendations from the System Center Operations Manager Product Group.
Once imported into SCCM 2007, this configuration pack and its included configuration items can be targeted to collections of systems which are then audited for compliance with the recommended configurations. When settings are detected to be out of compliance, events will be generated and sent to the Configuration Manager server where the data is available for reporting. This enables early detection of potentially detrimental configuration changes and allows the administrator to correct the settings before they may cause downtime events.
Please note that the configuration items, settings, and values included in this configuration pack will not necessarily reflect the desired configuration for every possible Operations Manager 2007 environment. The administrator should verify that the rules being evaluated reflect the desired configuration for their specific environment. If desired, the administrator can also modify the configuration pack by changing the value(s) specified for given settings-based configuration items or by adding/removing configuration items from the model through the Desired Configuration Management user interface within the SCCM 2007 console.
