 Oct 20, 2014

Did you know that you can download the System Center Orchestrator Integration packs directly from the Microsoft website? Alternatively, most of the third party integration packs are available from different vendors. It’s quite simple to download the package from Microsoft, and here’s how you can do it:
  1. Download the System Center Orchestrator Integration Packs from Microsoft via http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh295851.aspx.
  2. Install the downloaded packs by double clicking on the “.Exe” file.
  3. Open Systems Center Orchestrator Deployment Manager and right click “Integration Packs” and select “Register IP with the Orchestrator Management Server.”
  4. Follow the Wizard and click on “Add” and the point to the path where you installed the Integration Packs on the previous step.
Now you should be able to see the new integration pack in the deployment manager, which brings me to the next part of this article. How would you deploy the integration pack for the “Runbook Designers”? It’s simple, just follow the steps below.

Deploying integration packs for the “Runbook Designers”

  1. Right click “Integration Packs” in deployment manager and then select the “Deploy IP to Runbook Server or Runbook Designer” option.
  2. Using the Wizard, select the Integration Pack that you want to deploy and then select the “Runbook Designer Computer” that you want the Integration Pack to deploy to.
  3. Open the “Runbook Designer” from “All Programs.”
Now, you should be able to see the newly integrated “Integration Pack” Options in the “Activities” Window.
