@Kevin to be more specific I want to monitor virtual server, Pool and pol members through System Centre Operations Manager (SCOM). I want achieve a monitoring which will generate alert via SCOM monitoring the health status of individual VS, Pool and Pool member. Please let me know if there is any such OID.
