Well, I found the "System Center Data Access" service (auto-connected to the last host in 'services.msc', which wasn't the localhost/Management Server).
The service is running and using our designated SCOM DAS account. Thanks, Geoff From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Orlebeck, Geoffrey Sent: Thursday, July 30, 2015 2:13 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [msmom] Discover Computer via PowerShell Is there a straightforward way within the OperationsManager PowerShell module to discover a host by its non-FQDN name? Example that works with FQDN: Get-SCOMAgent -DNSHostName hostname.domain.com However, if I don't give the FQDN, the above command won't work. I see "ComputerName", but when I tried it via "Get-SCOMAgent -ComputerName Hostname" it fails stating the Data Access service is either not running or not yet initialized. I'm running this on one of the Management Servers and do not see any "Data Access" service by ServiceName or DisplayName. My goal is for users to be able to input a hostname and perform some tasks, but I don't want them to have to remember to enter the FQDN, if it's avoidable. I would append our domain to their entries, but we actually have several domains reporting to our environment, so hardcoding the appending text is not ideal either. Thoughts?
