    I recommend sealing the MP so that you can leverage this information in other MPs

      Without question this should be sealed - I recommend placing the groups for this in this same MP and sealing it so those groups can be used for any other override MP.

    Hi Kevin,What if the registry I want to add is under 32Bit node?for 32bit servers, it will appear under SOFTWARE\Contoso but on a 64bit servers it will appear under SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Contoso. Do I need to create 2 different entries? Thanks,Orit.

      You can create two expressions in the discovery, or you can use :http://blog.wouters.it/2010/01/scom-registry-discovery-on-64-bit-os.htmlhttps://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/systemcenter/en-US/bf566244-1164-4bf7-b08c-558bc7bc2363/configuration-management-pack-not-monitoring-64-bit?forum=operationsmanagermgmtpacks

    Hey Kevin, I'm a big fan of your blog!Thank you for a great post regarding extending a class.I have applied this in an MP and Everything works great except one thing:When I decommission a server and delete the agent from the console, the extended class instance for that server is not removed.It is still visible in the Discovered Inventory view.I am forced to remove it by running an unsupported SQL-Query or I'll be left with many orphaned instances.I must have missed something, but what? :)Thanks againDavid

      I do not see this behavior.Are you sure you are using the Filtered Registry MP sample, and not the CSV or CMDB examples? I know those have some issues I need to resolve - but the filtered registry one is hosted by each agent, so these should clean up on their own without issue.

    Nice example. tnx. Have you ever used the UNIX/Linux Authoring Library by Kris Bash? Looks very handy. https://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/18094.scom-2012-unixlinux-authoring-library-mp-reference-data-source-modules.aspx

      Absolutely. I am actually developing MP fragments right now based on those.They are VERY complex, unfortunately, and trying to make easy-breezy monitors out of them has proven difficult... but I am releasing one for a class discovery, and one for a shell command monitor today in my fragment library.
