Microsoft.EnterpriseManagement Namespace

The Microsoft.EnterpriseManagement namespace contains the root management group class that is the starting point for System Center 2012 Software Development Kit (SDK) operations and interfaces that are used to access System Center data. The EnterpriseManagementGroup class is used to access and retrieve information from the Service Manager management server.

Classes

Class	Description
ActivationContext	Represents the activation context.
ApprovedHealthServicesForDistribution	Implements the IApprovedHealthServicesForDistribution interface so that the object can specify a list of either MonitoringObject objects or PartialMonitoringObject objects as health services to which any specified credential can be distributed.
ComponentActivationException	Represents the exception that is thrown when there is an error in activating a component.
ComponentActivator	Contains component activation methods.
ConfigurationReaderException	Represents the exception that is thrown when there is an error in reader configuration.
Container	Encapsulates zero or more components.
ContainerException	Represents the exception that is thrown when there is an error while using the Container object.
CreatableObjectGroup	Represents a group of objects as defined by the system infrastructure.
EnterpriseManagementConnectionSettings	Defines the settings that are used to connect to a System Center server.
EnterpriseManagementGroup	Allows you to access and manage Service Manager data. This includes management packs, classes, and other components that are defined in a management pack, user roles, language packs, knowledge articles, forms, and instances of management pack classes. Creating an instance of the EnterpriseManagementGroup class is often the starting point for Service Manager client applications.
EnterpriseManagementGroupInternal	Represents a management group internal class.
GenericProperty	Represents a generic property in a management pack.
InProcEnterpriseManagementConnectionSettings	Provides access to the in-process settings that are used to connect to a Service Manager server.
ManagementPackStore	Represents a set of file directories where management packs are stored.
NotificationMessage	Represents user-supplied text that is appended to a notification that is sent when System Center responds to an event or alert.
NullComponentAttribute	Represents the null component attribute.
SecureDataCriteria	Specifies the criteria for the GetSecureData(SecureDataCriteria) method, limiting the objects returned by the method to those that meet the criteria.
ServiceManagementConnectionSettings	Defines the settings that are used to connect to a Service Manager server.
ServiceManagementGroup	Allows you to access and manage Service Manager data. These include management packs and the classes and other elements defined in a management pack, user roles, language packs, knowledge articles, forms, and instances of management pack classes. This class is derived from the EnterpriseManagementGroup class, and it can be used as the starting point for Service Manager client applications.
SmtpNotificationMessage	Represents a notification message that is sent using the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP). The message contains user-supplied text that is appended to a notification that is sent when System Center responds to an event or alert.
TieredManagementGroupConnectionSettings	Includes tiered management group connection settings that are used to connect to the System Center server. A tiered connection establishes a secondary connection to another server through the existing connection’s server.
ValidationHelper	Contains methods for validation of parameters.

Interfaces

Interface	Description
IApprovedHealthServicesForDistribution	Defines properties related to the approved health services for distribution.
IContainer	Allows you to access the features associated with this container
IDeploymentManagement	Allows you to access the status of a management pack deployment and to restart management pack deployments.
IEntityObjectsManagement	Allows you to access the instances of entity types that are defined in a management pack. For example, instances of management pack classes and type projections are accessed through this interface’s methods.
IEntityTypeManagement	Allows you to access and manage the entity types that are defined in the store. An entity type can be a class, enumeration, relationship, or type projection that is defined in a management pack under the EntityTypes element.
IFeatureContainer	Allows you to control features in the container.
IImageReferences	Provides a mechanism for retrieving image references used internally by the object model.
IInitializable	Provides a method that can be used to initialize the current instance.
IKnowledgeManagement	Allows you access the management pack knowledge articles for Operations Manager on the System Center store. A knowledge article contains information about a problem and information about how to fix the problem.
ILanguagePacksManagement	Allows you to access the language packs on the Service Manager server. A language pack contains localized display strings (names and descriptions) for objects that are defined in the management pack.
ILinkingFrameworkManagement	Defines methods for the linking framework management.
IManagementPackDerivedTypes	Defines methods for retrieving derived types from the store.
IManagementPackManagement	Allows you to access and manage management packs on the Service Manager server.
IManagementPackStore	Defines properties related to the management pack store.
IMonitoringConfigurationManagement	Allows you to monitor configuration management.
INotificationManagement	Enables you to send notifications from the Service Manager server.
IOverridesManagement	Manages overrides in the System Center store.
IPresentationManagement	Manages the user interface (UI) objects.
IReportingConfigurationManagement	Manages management pack reporting configuration.
IResourceManagement	Allows you to access management pack resources, such as form assemblies or images, that have been imported on the Service Manager server.
ISecuredData	This interface is obsolete. Please use SecureData instead. Obsolete.
ISecurityManagement	Manages security for the System Center store.
IServiceLevelAgreementManagement	Allows management of the service level agreement (SLA) objects on the Service Manager server.
ITaskConfigurationManagement	Enables management and configuration of tasks.
ITaskRuntimeManagement	Enables runtime management of tasks.
ITemplatesManagement	Manages templates and object templates in the System Center store. Templates are predefined management pack fragments that are used for creating management pack changes with parameters. Object templates pre-populate objects with specific values.
ITypeCacheManagement	Provides simple, type-cache management.
ITypeDefinitionsManagement	Allows you to access the schema types that are defined in a management pack. The schema types are defined in the <SchemaType> elements under the <TypeDefinitions> element in a management pack.
ITypeProjectionComponent	Defines a component from a type projection which is used to create a view of related properties from multiple objects.
IUserSettingsManagement	Manages the user-defined console tasks, reports, searches, tasks, and views that are defined in the store.

Delegates

Delegate	Description
ImportPackagedManagementPackCallback	Represents the method that will handle importing management packs from a package.

Enumerations

Enumeration	Description
ApprovedHealthServicesResults	Specifies how an ISecuredData credential is to be distributed to health services.
Lifetime	Specifies the lifetime for this activated component.
NotificationRecipientType	Defines values used to specify the way someone is addressed to receive a notification message.
