Trying the container solution for Microsoft Operations Management Suite

The Microsoft Operations Management Suite (OMS) is a software-as-a-service offering from Microsoft that allows Enterprise IT to manage any hybrid cloud. It offers log analytics, automation, backup and recovery, and security and compliance. Sign up for a free account at http://mms.microsoft.com or read more about here: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/server-cloud/operations-management-suite/overview.aspx

This container solution will generate a container which will runs OMS agent within. This is for Linux OS which has restriction in installing the Operations Management Suite Agent directly. However, it can also be used with other support Linux OS as well.

This is a public preview product.

Supported Linux Operating Systems, Docker, and ACS Mesosphere DC/OS:

• Docker 1.11 thru 1.13

• Docker CE and EE v17.03

• An x64 version of Linux OS

  • Ubuntu 14.04 LTS, 16.04 LTS
  • CoreOS(stable)
  • Amazon Linux 2016.09.0
  • openSUSE 13.2
  • openSUSE LEAP 42.2
  • CentOS 7.2, 7.3
  • SLES 12
  • RHEL 7.2, 7.3

• ACS Mesosphere DC/OS 1.7.3, 1.8.8

• ACS Kubernetes 1.4.5

Release Note

Update Information are here.

Setting up

As a pre-requisite, docker must be running prior to this installation. If you have installed before running docker, please re-install OMS Agent. For more information about docker, please go to https://www.docker.com/.

This set up is not for ACS Mesosphere DC/OS or ACS Kubernetes.

• For more information on Mesosphere DC/OS, please see here.
• For Kubernetes, please see here. yaml file for the daemon-set is here.

This set up provides a containerized Container Solution Agent (OMS Agent for Linux). If you are interested in a full OMS Agent for linux with Container Solution, please go here.

To use OMS for all containers on a container host

• Start the OMS container:

$>sudo docker run --privileged -d -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock -v /var/log:/var/log -v /var/opt/microsoft/omsagent/state/containerhostname:/etc/hostname -e WSID="your workspace id" -e KEY="your key" -p 127.0.0.1:25225:25225 -p 127.0.0.1:25224:25224/udp --name="omsagent" -h=`hostname` --restart=always microsoft/oms

If you are switching from the installed agent to the container

If you previously used the directly installed agent and want to switch to using the container, you must remove the omsagent. See Steps to install the OMS Agent for Linux

If you have an older version of Docker and would want to still use OMS Container Solution to monitor your data go here.

Upgrade

You can upgrade to a newer version of the agent. See here.

What now?

Once you're set up, we'd like you to try the following scenarios and play around with the system.
