1 Introduction to the Connector

The Microsoft System Center Operations Manager (SCOM) 2012 Connector (version 12.1.0.1.0) integrates Oracle Enterprise Manager with Microsoft SCOM 2012 through web services. Using this connector you can create, update or close alerts on the SCOM system for any event generated in Enterprise manager, which ensures an active synchronization between SCOM and Enterprise Manager. Events in Enterprise Manager are equivalent to alerts in the SCOM system.

The connector monitors all events sent from Oracle Enterprise Manager and automatically updates alert information in SCOM. The connector supports the following features:

Sharing of event information from Oracle Enterprise Manager to Microsoft SCOM.
Customization of event to alert mappings between Oracle Enterprise Manager and Microsoft SCOM.
Synchronization of event changes in Oracle Enterprise Manager with the alerts in Microsoft SCOM.

Once an alert is created in SCOM for an event in Enterprise Manager, for subsequent updates in event severity, there is a choice between opening a new alert in SCOM or annotating the original alert in SCOM.
