System Center Operations Manager (SCOM) 2012 released!

Microsoft releases System Center 2012 to the public at large. For those who have not already tried it, a private trial is available for download here.

Part of the System Center 2012 suite is System Center Operations Manager 2012 (SCOM 2012).  This release of SCOM 2012 has many great features, but the feature that I worked on was support for monitoring Java Application Servers.

This feature adds out-of-the-box support for:

Version RHEL SLES Solaris AIX Windows
IBM WebSphere 6.1, 7.0 yes yes yes yes
Oracle WebLogic 10gRel3, 11gRel1 yes yes yes yes
Redhat JBoss 4.2, 5.1, 6.0 yes yes yes
Apache Tomcat 5.5, 6.0, 7.0 yes yes yes

Support JDK's for Redhat JBoss and Apache Tomct are Oracle JDK version 5.x, 6.x, and 7.x.

Updated 4/26/2012
