Hi there,
Here is a brief summary for all users and groups required to install Operations manager 2012.

The OpsMgr 2012 uses the Action Account to gather operational data from providers, to run responses, and to perform actions such as installing and uninstalling agents on managed computers When you discover computers, you use this account by default to install Agent on computer |

The OMMA, OMDAS must be Local Administrator of all OpsMgr Servers We will add these Groups in the Global group OMAdmins |
11. |
The OMAdmins Global group must be member of all Local Administrators group of each Server |

Important: The OMAdmin user must be able to create Database on both SQ Servers because during the installation the OpsMgr 2012 setup will created both Database in SQL, the operation manager Database and the Operation Manager Data Warehouse
After the SQL Installation the OMAdmin user doesn’t need this SQL Right
Additional Details and Information
We will also define some additional information during the deployment process, such as:
- Management Group name for Operations Manager will be named ACGLGroupProduction
- SQL instance for MTLSQL01 (Operations Manager Database) is going to be called OPSMGROM
- SQL instance for MTLSQL01 (Operations Manager Database Warehouse) is going to be called OPSMGRRS
Notification Groups…
At ACGL Corporation (our scenario of this series) we have several teams, such as:
- Windows Team
- Share point Team
- SQL Team
- Exchange Team
- IIS Team
The following table has the summary of those initial groups that will be used for Notification.
For that, we will create a Universal group and mail enable these groups, (to be able to Mail Enable group in Exchange 2010 the group must be Universal). The group will be also Security group because we will use the same groups to create the OpsMgr Role
1. |
Create a Universal Security group WindowsTeam |
Mail Enable this group in Exchange 2010 WindowsTeam@acgl.ca |
2. |
Create a Universal Security group SharepointTeam |
Mail Enable this group in Exchange 2010 SharePointTeam@acgl.ca |
