Office 365 Monitoring and Dashboards in SCOM OpsMgr Operation Manager

Let’s learn Office 365 Monitoring and Dashboards in SCOM OpsMgr Operation Manager. Office 365 is a SaaS solution by Microsoft. As of the last report, there were 24.9 million total subscribers, confirming that many people use Office 365 to help manage their businesses.

I have always wondered whether organizations need a monitoring solution for Office 365. This post will discuss Office 365 Monitoring and Dashboards in SCOM.

Microsoft Office 365 provides service monitoring options in the Office 365 portal itself. After several hours, I have seen some of the outages updated in the Health > Service health section of the admin center.

I have not seen any direct integration between your on-prem SCOM investment and Office 365 cloud service. The following are some default options in the Office 365 admin center.

Office 365 Monitoring Challenges?

Have you seen your Office 365 users not receiving emails even though the Microsoft Office 365 Service health dashboard shows everything is “OKAY” with your tenant? Yes, there could be problems with the network and connectivity side.

Connectivity issues with LAN, WAN, Internet, WiFi, Proxy, and Firewalls can also cause issues with Office 365 or online exchange. Would you like proactive or reactive monitoring for the Office 365 environment? I assume that proactive monitoring should be used rather than reactive monitoring for a critical service like Office 365.
