System Center Virtual User Group Weblog

Recordings from last user group meeting...

We had some audio problems on the last meeting (due to how sessions were recorded). We're going to re-record a couple of these sessions (mine and Cameron's). You can actually read the content of Steve Rachui's session in his new TechNet article at System Center: Granular Targeting In Operations Manager 2007

Sorry for the inconvenience. Should have at least the SNMP session recorded and uploaded this week, and promise we'll get it right next meeting.
