Dell EMC OpenManage Integration v7.1 for Microsoft System Center for Operations Manager (SCOM) Installation Guide

Proxy MS is a virtual machine running on Windows Server Operating Systems that is introduced for Dell EMC OpenManage Integration for Microsoft System Center Operations Manager (version 7.1 and further) to offload the monitoring, performance metrics and SNMP Alerts work flows from the Management Server and thus helps in scaling the number of devices being monitored within a Management Group. The Management Server and Proxy MS are in the same domain. Discover the Proxy MS as an Agent Managed Windows computer in the Operations Manager console. For more details on how to use Proxy MS, see Adding Proxy MS to DellProxyMSGroup and Synchronizing Dell Proxy MS with OMIMSSC.

In Dell EMC Server Management Pack version 7.0, when a Management Group consisting of five Management Servers is used, a maximum of 600 devices can be monitored in the scalable mode. In Dell EMC OpenManage Integration for Microsoft System Center Operations Manager version 7.1 with the introduction of Proxy MS, you can scale up to 5000 devices under one Management Group. The supported number of nodes on each Proxy MS is 250. For more information, see Configuration planning for Management Server and Proxy MS with deployment scenarios for supported scalability.
