Hyper-V SCOM Management Pack ​

The Hyper-V SCOM Management Pack is the committed delivery surface for this platform track. It can reuse research and engineering practices, but its runtime health model is authored independently for the Hyper-V topology approved by the research and ADR gates.

Implemented scope ​

CapabilityImplementation
TopologyStable classes and relationships for approved standalone, clustered, and SCVMM-managed configurations
DiscoverySupported PowerShell 7+ and CIM/WMI discovery workflows with offline fixtures
HealthAvailability, performance, configuration, and management domain service rollups
MonitoringUnit, aggregate, and dependency monitors plus event and performance collection rules
Distributed ApplicationA Hyper-V-owned service root for every supported cluster or standalone host, with dynamic component membership, rollup, views, reports, dashboards, and SLO targeting
CustomizationSeparate customer-owned Discovery and Monitoring override MPs (HyperVPrivateCloud.Discovery.Overrides and HyperVPrivateCloud.Monitoring.Overrides)
OperationsState, alert, performance, and topology views with central operations diagnostic tasks
Release contractFour required core MPs, nine optional capability MPs, starter override packs, manifests, and release checksums

Delivery state ​

Version 1.3.8.0 is permanently sealed, offline verified, and published in this repository. Its public key token is 54d0fb1159995c86.

The earlier Hyper-V 0.1.0 lab preview is superseded and must not be mixed with the current product because it has a different signing identity and product namespace. Representative SCOM runtime and lifecycle certification is performed after the operator installs the exact published bytes.

The comprehensive implemented design is available in the Hyper-V SCOM architecture map. It covers package decomposition, classes and relationships, staged discovery, workflows and cookdown, health and alerts, dynamic DA membership and rollup, authoring standards, least privilege, operability, testing, and release.

The design strictly defines the sealed-versus-unsealed boundary. Discovery and Monitoring each have a corresponding customer-owned override MP; the Default Management Pack is never used. See the override and tuning architecture and the public Management Pack administration guide.

The Management Pack will not inherit Azure Local-only assumptions such as solution updates, DCMA, or the Azure Local ARM resource model. It will include Network ATC discovery and health for eligible Windows Server 2025 Datacenter Hyper-V clusters while preserving explicit coverage for non-ATC and SCVMM/SDN-managed networking.

The Microsoft Hyper-V 2019 Management Pack is a research reference only. This product will not import, extend, override, or require it; useful monitoring ideas must be revalidated and implemented independently in this project's own Management Pack.

Phase one — implemented catalog and continuing research ​

The first functional MP is authored. The exhaustive inventory and evidence program continues to refine released defaults, add lower-cardinality object monitoring, and decide which broader candidates belong in later releases. Twelve child Tasks separate topology, Windows Server, Hyper-V/VM, clustering/CSV, storage/Replica, networking, prior Microsoft MP research, SCOM workflow mapping, threshold engineering, lab validation, final catalog curation, and comprehensive architecture validation.

The research records everything technically observable, but only actionable and supportable signals ship enabled by default.

Why the SCOM design is reusable ​

The reusable parts are substantial: class and relationship conventions, discovery workflows, monitor types, health dimensions, rollup rules, override strategy, signing, tests, and operator views. The platform-specific parts remain the entity inventory, discovery data sources, signal catalog, thresholds, support matrix, and Distributed Application implementation. Research and engineering methods can be reused; no Azure Local runtime MP is referenced.
