Prerequisites

Previous experience of MOM is expected. This can be gained by attending the 3 day Microsoft Course MS2287, or by working with the product for a number of months. This course also assumes a basic familiarity of the SQL language, as construction of simple SQL statements is required when creating custom reports. Knowledge of VBScript is also required. When covering scripting for MOM, we will concentrate on taking working scripts and converting them for use in the MOM environment, we will not be covering VBScript from scratch. The course is written for IT support professionals who will be responsible for the day-to-day management of the MOM 2005 infrastructure. It deals chiefly with the maintenance and management of Management Packs. It is not suitable for the end users of MOM - the general IT support staff who will be using it for monitoring and supporting their servers. They would be better suited by attending the 1 day MOM operators course - QAMOMOPS.
