Operations management suite workspaces for Azure gov do not show up in SCOM

The default workspaces that you can connect to in SCOM are tied to Azure commercial.





After logging to the Azure account you will not see the workspaces you have created in the Azure government cloud. 

If you want to connect to an Azure Gov workspace download the respective mp's.

These are sealed management packs so you will have to delete the existing  ones before importing these.

 

Once done though,you shall see the dropdown for Azure Gov. After which you can login and the workspaces should show up.

Community Vmware management pack for vmware sphere 6.0

Mitch Luedy has created a very good management pack for monitoring VMware. He also was gracious enough to make it available to everyone for free.

Link to his github repository of the entire solution is here.

This management pack uses PsSnapins in the powershell scripts. And vmware has ceased the use of snapins from 6.0.

 I have modified the scripts to use modules and this management pack will work on vsphere 6.0 now.

Link to that repository is here.
