The F5 Monitoring Service Data Source Singleton Error

Hi Flipa,

 

 

Usually this type of error in the F5 Management Pack surfaces when F5 Management Pack rule overrides are not targeting the appropriate classes. Do you have any F5 Management Pack overrides defined? If you're not sure, you can check if the F5 Management Pack has any dependent (override) management packs. You can check this in the SCOM Management Console :: Administration :: Management Packs :: F5 Networks :: Properties :: Dependencies :: Management Packs that depend on this Management Pack.

 

 

From your post it almost sounds like you haven't defined any overrides for the F5 MP, yet the error clearly points to an issue with overrides.

 

 

If you have overrides defined, I would recommend removing the override pack where these overrides are defined and start a clean slate creating those overrides, following the suggestions in this F5 DevCentral article:

I would also suggest installing the latest release of the F5 Management Pack (v2.2.0.580) as it would make our troubleshooting easier. About the singleton error you should probably get more details from the Operations Manager event log. If you still get the error while there are no overrides defined and you have the latest version of the F5 MP please zip and email us (to managementpack(at)f5(dot)com) the following logs:

 

 

- setup.log

 

- F5 Monitoring Log event log

 

- Operations Manager event log

 

 

Thank you!
