VMware is working hard to provide more and more application management plugins for vRealize Operations. In previous versions vRealize Hyperic was used to perform application monitoring, with the newer versions of vRealize Operations this is done using the EndPoint Operations agent (EPOPS agent). Application specific intelligence is added using management packs. To monitor Microsoft Exchange you can now use the new vRealize Operations Solution for Microsoft Exchange.

The vRealize Operations Solution for Microsoft Exchange is a management pack which provides visibility into your Microsoft Exchange deployments. Pre-defined dashboards allow you to see the status and the relationships between the different components of Microsoft Exchange.
