Step 2. Configure Ops Mgr Agent Proxy Settings

The Ops Mgr agent running on Hyper-V hosts must be granted the privilege to insert new objects into Ops Mgr as the Hyper-V topology is discovered. This is known as Proxying.

To grant this privilege, do the following:

Open the Ops Mgr console using the account with administrative rights.
Go to the Administration section.
Select the Device Management > Agent Managed node.
In the right pane, for each Ops Mgr agent running on a Hyper-V host, double-click to open Agent Properties dialog.
Go to the Security tab and make sure the Allow this agent to act as a proxy and discover managed objects on other computers check box is selected.

Click OK. Allow several minutes for the setting change to propagate through the system.
