Sync Configuration Manager Application Collections in Service Manager

This post is the 11th in a series focused on making common administrative tasks in System Center and Azure available via the Service Manager Self-Service Portal. The Configuration Manager and Operations Manager Connectors pull a lot of information into Service Manager but not everything necessary to manage clients, agents, and other settings. This solution allows for the synchronizing of Configuration Manager Collections, with deployments targeted at them, with Service Manager. Specifically, it provides for the ability to deploy software with Configuration Manager via the Service Manager Self-Service Portal. Note, this will only bring collections into Service Manager with the word "Portal:" in the comment of the collection and I’m calling these collections Application Collections for the purposes of this scenario.

Series

Using the Service Manager Self-Service Portal for Common Tasks in Configuration Manager, Operations Manager, and Azure

Prerequisites

The scenarios were designed using the following

  • System Center Service Manager 2012 R2
    • Self-Service Portal configured and working
    • Active Directory Connector configured and working
    • Configuration Manager Connector configured and working
    • Orchestrator Connector configured and working
  • System Center Configuration Manager 2012 R2
    • Discovery configured and working
  • System Center Orchestrator 2012 R2
    • SC 2012 Configuration Manager Integration Pack configured and working
    • SC 2012 Service Manager Integration Pack configured and working
    • Configuration Manager Console installed on runbook servers (open the console, make sure you can connect to your site server)
    • Service Manager Console installed on runbook servers
    • Runbook servers configured to allow PowerShell scripts to run

Create a service account or use the one created in the previous blog post

  1. Give the account admin rights to Service Manager
  2. Give the account admin rights to Configuration Manager

Create a share to store scripts and logs or use the one created in the previous blog post

  1. Create a share that the service account you created and authenticated users will have access to on the Runbook Servers that will be used for this scenario.
  2. In the share, create a folder called "Automation" and give the service account access to it.
  3. Copy SyncApplicationCollections.ps1 into the Automation Folder
  4. In the share, create a sub-folder called "Logs" in the Automation Folder and give the applicable administrators access to it. Orchestrator will write logs to this folder and admins can use these logs for troubleshooting.
  5. In the Logs folder, create a sub-folder called "SRLogs" and give authenticated users access to it. Users of the Service Manager Portal will use these to see the status of the Collection Sync task so they will need rights to this folder.

Create the Sync Application Collection (On-Demand) Runbook

This Runbook will launch a PowerShell script when it is triggered via the Service Manager Self-Service Portal.

  1. Open the Orchestrator Runbook Designer

  2. Create a new runbook

  3. Drag the "Runbook Control\Initialize Data" activity into the new runbook

  4. Configure two parameters on the "Initialize Data" activity and click Finish

    • ServiceRequest (data type: String)
    • CollectionName (data type: String)
  5. Drag the "System\Run Program" activity into the new runbook

  6. Link the two activities

  7. Configure the Security of "System\Run Program" to use the service account

  8. Configure three settings under the "Details" section of the "Run Program" activity and click finish

    • Program path: C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe
    • Parameters: -File <local sharepath>\Automation\SyncApplicationCollections.ps1 -CMSiteCode CAS -CMSiteServer sccm2012r2cas.contoso.com -SMManagementServer sm2012r2.contoso.com -VerboseLogging false -Collection "{CollectionName from "Initialize Data"}" -ServiceRequest {ServiceRequest from "Initialize Data"}
    • Working Folder: <local sharepath>\Automatio
    • Note, the data between the curly braces are Published Data from the Data Bus. This is obtained by right-clicking on the white space and selecting the appropriate variable. You can also use Orchestrator variables configured under Global Settings for items such as CMSiteCode, CMSiteServer, and SMManagementServer.
  9. Check In the Runbook

  10. The Runbook should look like this:

clip_image001

Create the Sync Application Collections (Scheduled) Runbook

This Runbook will launch a PowerShell script when it is triggered via a schedule. This will catch Collections and Collection modifications that have occurred outside of the Service Manager Self-Service Portal.

  1. Open the Orchestrator Runbook Designer

  2. Create a new runbook

  3. Drag the "Scheduling\Monitor Date/Time" activity into the new runbook

  4. Configure one setting under Details of the Monitor Date/Time activity and click Finish

    • Every: 1 hour
  5. Drag the "System\Run Program" activity into the new runbook

  6. Link the two activities

  7. Configure the Security of "System\Run Program" to use the service account

  8. Configure three settings under the "Details" section of the "Run Program" activity and click finish

    • Program path: C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe
    • Parameters: -File <sharepath>\Automation\SyncApplicationCollections.ps1 -CMSiteCode CAS -CMSiteServer sccm2012r2cas.contoso.com -SMManagementServer sm2012r2.contoso.com -VerboseLogging false
    • Working Folder: <sharepath>\Automation
    • You can also use Orchestrator variables configured under Global Settings for items such as CMSiteCode, CMSiteServer, and SMManagementServer.
  9. Check in and Start this runbook.

  10. The Runbook should look like this:

clip_image002

Test Solution

  1. Create a new device collection in Configuration Manager

    I haven't tested this out to see what the minimum rights are. I'm using the cmdlets so if it's documented in each cmdlet that's one way to figure it out, otherwise trial/error.
