    To verify the successful installation of System Center Operations Manager (SCOM) on a Windows enterprise server, you can follow these key steps and indicators:

    1. Check SCOM Services Status:
      • System Center Management (HealthService)
      • System Center Data Access (OMSDK)
      • System Center Management Configuration (cshost)
    2. Validate Management Packs:
      • Open the Operations Console.
      • Navigate to the Administration workspace.
      • Under Management Packs, select Installed Management Packs.
      • Review the list to ensure all necessary management packs are installed and up-to-date.
    3. Confirm Monitoring Workflows:
      • In the Operations Console, go to the Monitoring workspace.
      • Check the Active Alerts and Health State views to ensure that monitoring workflows are actively running and generating alerts as expected.
      • You can also use the Event Viewer to check for any SCOM-related events under Applications and Services Logs > Operations Manager.
