Checking Management Packs for Best Practice Adherence
If you work with OpsMgr you work with management packs in some form - either using ones available from the Microsoft download library, ones available from 3rd parties or ones that you author yourself. Either way, wouldn't it be cool if we had a tool to run against these management packs to determine how they stack up in terms of adherence to best practices? Well, there is one - and it's right there in our favorite tool called the authoring console! :) I used the authoring console for quite a while and somehow never noticed it.
If you import a management pack - sealed or unsealed - into the authoring console and then select Tools > Best Practice Analysis
you will get a full report on your MP and how it stacks up. The screenshot shows just the first page of results but hopefully it's enough to encourage you to take a look!
