Configuration Manager management pack

Intro

A simple little management pack to help you monitor Microsoft Configuration Manager.

Version numbers in Config Manager are notoriously complex, mainly on the server side. For that reason I kept it simple and just grabbed it from locations that seemed to make sense. I'm not sure how useful server version info is anyway. The agent side is good.

Issues

  1. Not an issue just noting. At time of deployment the Microsoft.Intune.ConfigurationManager.Monitor.AiUpdateServicePointService service was no longer installed on any servers.
  2. I disabled the Start CcmExec service recovery on clients (via override not in mp) because some clients were constantly stopping, so the recovery would start it and it gets in a loop. I don't know what causes this problem.

Changes

MP Name MP Version Change
Microsoft.Intune.ConfigurationManager.Views 2024.3.15.0 Initial release.
Microsoft.Intune.ConfigurationManager.Monitoring 2024.3.19.0 Initial release.
