The Microsoft Management Model Designer (MMD) application was created to be a tool for developing management models. Management models provide a way to represent all of the areas of manageability for applications and systems services.
You can use the MMD to:
Build a management framework by defining the managed entities that make up your applications or system services and define how these they relate to each other.
Import existing instrumentation, such as events and performance counters, into your model.
Author human-readable knowledge associated with each managed entity, such as event and performance counter descriptions and troubleshooting content.
Import and export existing MOM 2005 management pack knowledge
Validate your management model schema.
A health model defines various health states of a system and how that system moves in and out of those health states. It provides a single source for documenting troubleshooting knowledge for an application or service.
A health model describes the following:
Physical or logical parts of an application or service that an IT Professional (IT Pro) needs to configure, monitor, and report on
A set of health states the application or service can get into and why
How to detect and diagnose problems
How to solve problems
The ultimate goal of creating a health model is to enable the IT Pro to more easily and efficiently maintain systems in a distributed environment. You use the Microsoft Management Model Designer (MMD) to create your health model.
Creating a health model with the Management Model Designer (MMD) includes:
Building an application structure from predefined components (base classes as defined in the Service Modeling Language Platform) and the relationships between them.
Building a hierarchy of the logical services and objects the application exposes in a way that is most useful for IT professionals.
Identifying the functional Aspects for each Managed Entity that are of interest for monitoring.
Identifying all of the Health States and levels of severity an Aspect can be in.
Identifying the verification steps that need to be taken to confirm whether an Aspect is in a given Health State.
Providing the instrumentation that enables the detection of each Health State.
Identifying the diagnostic steps needed to determine the root cause of the degraded Health State of an Aspect.
Identifying the recovery steps that need to be taken to resolve a problem and return an Aspect and its parent Managed Entity to full health.
You use the Management Model Designer (MMD) tool to:
Build a management framework by defining the managed entities that make up your application or system service and define how the entities relate to each other.
Import existing instrumentation, such as events and performance counters, into your model.
Enter descriptions and procedures related to Managed Entities for the IT Pro to use for troubleshooting.
Import and export Operations Manager management pack knowledge.
Validate your management model.
The Managed Entity framework you create plus the descriptions and procedures you write for each component including Managed Entities, Aspects, Verifiers and Resolvers, become the content for web-based troubleshooting information IT Pros can access through TechNet, as well as output for generating Operations Manager management packs.
Requirements:
.NET CLR 2.0 and Office Interop Assemblies
