No more updates of MsgBoxViewer : now replaced by "BizTalk Health Monitor" (BHM)

Hello,

You are maybe already aware of our new Health Check tool "BizTalk Health Monitor" (aka " BHM") available now in its version 2. If not, I invite you strongly to download it and use it to check periodically for the good health of your BizTalk production platforms.

BHM is a full MMC snap-in sharing the same engine and repository (queries and rules) than MBV to analyze in-depth a  BizTalk group and present all important information in a complete dashboard view.
This MMC was created to replace definitively MBV by presenting in a more user friendly format its analyze results and providing so a better experience.
Its snap-in format allows to be easely integrated in an existing MMC like the BizTalk Administration console, and its TreeView control allows to keep well organized its multiple profiles and generated reports, making much more easy their comparison.
BHM provides also schedule & notification features, integrated perfomance counters views, and its latest version is now completly customizable; you can so customize as you want its dashboard view and add very easely your own queries and rules !

I inform you so that no updated public version of MBV will be available. Next updates of the rich repository of MBV (its large set of queries and rules raising warnings)  will be available only via BHM which will be periodicallly updated.

I encourage you to test BHM and its numerous features and report your feedbacks on the BHM blog

FYI, BHM v3 is in preparation and should provide remediation features 

Thanks

JP

    there is a BUG in the MBV part of the product. Its doesn't detect the latest CU's ARE deployed to the BizTalk product. I use version 3.0, on BT2009 and it complains that the CU6 is NOT deployed, even after CU7 is deployed and for BAP 2.0 CU5 is ALSO not detected by the monitor. The same is for BT2010, BAP2010 CU3 not detected after deployment.

    Is it (still) possible to schedule a run and analyse output with, for instance, BizTalk360?

    One of the primary purposes behind creating the BizTalk Terminator tool was to allow users the ability
