# Microsoft SCOM

### What is Microsoft SCOM Integration in ZigiOps?

Microsoft System Center Operations Manager (SCOM) is an infrastructure monitoring platform used to monitor the health, performance, and availability of Windows-based IT environments, including servers, applications, and network devices.

ZigiOps enables secure, API-based integration between Microsoft SCOM and ITSM, DevOps, and other monitoring platforms. Using ZigiOps, alerts and monitoring events from SCOM can be synchronized with external systems to support automated incident management and cross-team operational workflows.

With ZigiOps, Microsoft SCOM can:

* Forward monitoring alerts and health events to ITSM platforms such as ServiceNow, Jira, or Remedy
* Participate in bi-directional workflows where ITSM ticket updates are reflected back in SCOM
* Contribute infrastructure health data to observability and operations management platforms
* Support automated escalation and notification workflows across IT operations teams

The integration is fully customizable and does not require custom scripts or plugins.

### Which Microsoft SCOM Versions Are Supported?

Please note that using a supported version is mandatory.

### What Are the Most Common Microsoft SCOM Integration Use Cases?

#### Use Case 1: Alert Forwarding from SCOM to ITSM

When SCOM detects a health degradation or alert threshold breach, ZigiOps can automatically create an incident in ServiceNow, Jira, or Remedy. Alert details, severity, and source information are mapped directly into the ITSM record for immediate triage.

#### Use Case 2: Bi-Directional Incident Management Between SCOM and ServiceNow

SCOM alerts that generate ServiceNow incidents can be updated in both directions. When an incident is resolved in ServiceNow, ZigiOps can acknowledge or close the corresponding SCOM alert, ensuring consistency across monitoring and service management.

#### Use Case 3: Infrastructure Health Data Aggregation

SCOM infrastructure health data can be forwarded to centralized operations management platforms, providing a unified view of Windows environment health alongside data from other monitoring tools.

### What Integration Templates Are Available for Microsoft SCOM?

ZigiOps provides integration templates for Microsoft SCOM, depending on the paired system.

*See the Integration Catalog for all Microsoft SCOM templates. Contact* [*support@zigiwave.com*](mailto:support@zigiwave.com) *for detailed template availability.*
