Monitor CentOS with Operations Manager 2007 R2

Now we have support for CentOS guests on Hyper-V, how about monitoring them?  I noticed some retweets by Carsten Rachfahl of some posts by @OpsMgr on Twitter:

With a bit of searching I also found an old post on the subject of installing the RedHat agent and importing a modified version of the RedHat management pack.

The above two posts use a management pack that is shared on the community cross platform extensions site.

None of this is supported in any way, but you’re probably not too worried about support if you’re using CentOS anyway (I guess).  This will extend the power of OpsMgr to your free Linux distro.
