Microsoft.Unix.Computer announces System Center Operations Manager 2007 R2 Connectors
Lets See What Microsoft tells about it........

The Operations Manager 2007 R2 Connectors provide Operations Manager 2007 R2 alert forwarding to remote systems, such as an Enterprise Management System
(EMS) or a help desk system. After Operations Manager 2007 R2 forwards an alert
to a remote system, the alert data is synchronized throughout the lifetime of
the alert. The result of that data synchronization is a robust and seamless
systems management environment. Such an environment enables cross-organization support processes to take advantage of the resources and strengths of formerly independent support groups. The ultimate effect is improved enterprise systems health through improved organizational communication.

Sharing data between Operations Manager 2007 R2 and remote systems enables enterprise correlation of events from Windows-based systems, hardware, network, and UNIX systems. Correlating these events allows IT staff to determine the causes of issues and reduce the time to resolution of IT outages. Synchronization of data
between Operations Manager 2007 R2 and remote systems also enables operational
groups to use familiar management interfaces. Users update an alert by using
their management tool, and the data is updated in tools that are used by other
operational groups.
