Subject: [msmom] MP Authoring Question

Problem: SCOM 2012 R2 UR9 running the Veeam 8 management pack -all good but the 
included monitor that detect poweredOff VMs also triggers for VMs without 
vmtool installed or running.

As we are a hosting Cloud company some customers buy only the VM container from 
us and we need only to monitor the powered On/Off status.

My investigations show that the collector server hosts a WMI class under 
root/nworks namespace called VMSTATS all good so far.

I can query this using select * from VMSTATS where powerState = "poweredOff" 
See below.

VMSTATS Attribute Object EntityId (hoild the name of the VM plus its id like 
vm101 = SCOM Object id in the console.

Question: How do I write a monitor some like

Foreach VM (SCOM ID)
Run a WMI Query against the collector (based on the Vcentre name from id) using 
namespace root/nworks and class VMSTATS in the context of 'EntityID' = SCOM id
Retrieve and match against powerState
If powerState = poweredOff raise an alert otherwise healthy.

Cheers
