SCOM 2012 - All Management Servers Resource Pool Critical Status
Alert Details: Operations Manager operational database percent free space is 9.92%. Ops Error Details: No error occurred.
Alert Details All Management Servers Resource Pool DB Watcher
Alert Details Operational Database Space Free (%)
Summary
The operational database is running out of free space. Sufficient free space is needed to ensure that monitoring can continue uninterrupted. By default this monitor changes into a warning state of there is less than 40% available free space, and an error state if there is less than 20% available free space.
It is not recommended to change these thresholds, as 40% free space is generally required for a healthy operational database.
Causes
A large increase in the amount of data saved to the operational database can be caused by:
•New agents added to the Management Group
•New Management Packs imported
•Changes to existing management pack rules or monitors
•An operational condition in the environment that is causing more than the typical amount of data (e.g. more alerts)
Resolutions
Increase the amount of free space by growing the database file.
Where-ever your database is stored, open SQL Server Management Studio
Expand Databases in Object Explorer. Right click on OperationsManager > Properties. In the General page, take note of the Size of your database and the Space available. This warning indicates that the space available is less than 10% of the total size. You’ll need to increase it by 20% to get out of critical and by 40% to get out of warning.
