For anyone interested, this alert was due to the IIS 6 compatibility components being removed from the server by another admin. Without the IIS6 features, the namespace (root/MicrosoftIISv2) and classes (ApplicationPoolSetting) do not exist. Those WMI entries are present when the IIS6 features are installed. Mystery solved.
Thanks, Geoff From: Orlebeck, Geoffrey Sent: Friday, April 17, 2015 11:44 AM To: '[email protected]' Subject: ADFS False Positive? Having an issue where SCOM is reporting "AD FS application pool is Not Running On The Federation Server". However, the website and app pool are running in IIS, as well as AD FS is currently working with the vendors we leverage AD FS for single sign-on. We have the latest AD FS MP from what I can tell (v7.0.8560.0). I tried resetting/recalculating the health state but it fails. I bounced the server and the issue persists, even though AD FS continues to function without issue. There are a total of three alerts being generated: SERVER - Failed to write to the audit log SERVER - The audit log event source could not be registered (Web Site) - AD FS app pool is not running on FS server There were some Windows Updates installed last night (I haven't obtained a list yet of what patches were deployed), and a restart, but otherwise no changes have been made to the system. I found one article that discusses ensuring some IIS 6 components be installed (Last post in this thread here.<https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/8efa04d0-54f9-4c1b-9009-85237714a5a6/scom-alert-ad-fs-application-pool-adfsapppool-is-stopped-in-the-iis-manager?forum=operationsmanagermgmtpacks>). However, I don't want to start randomly making changes to the actual roles if it's not the appropriate area. The audit log entries point to our ADFS service account, but the account is a local admin on the ADFS server and its credentials are valid. Just wondering if anyone has run into this before and what may have fixed it for you. Thanks! -Geoff Confidentiality Notice: This is a transmission from Community Hospital of the Monterey Peninsula.
