Afternoon, I am planning my Prod deployment of 2019 side by side with my current 2012r2 environment. I use a bit of a resource heavy handed powershell script for capturing alerts and sending notifications on my existing 2012R2 environment (2012R2 UR 12). As a result I have the two management servers scheduled for an early morning restart 7 days a week. I want to continue to use the script in the new 2019 environment. Since the first management server does 95% of the alert/notification work, no matter what MS documentation says, here is my thought.
4 management servers - Windows Server 2019
1-only for alerts/notifications, no monitored servers to support
2-3 use as management servers to balance monitored server load, 20-30 linux servers, scom web server,IIS/scom reporting services.
4- SQL 2019 Native reporting services
There will also be a standalone SQL 2019 server to hold the SCOM databases.
I would greatly appreciate your comments and input.
Thanks,
Tony
