Mom AD Admin Not Run

I am receiving the following error after standing up a new SCOM instance. I stood up 2 Management servers and ran the command .\MOMDAdmin.exe <ManagementGroupName> <MOMAdminSecurityGroup> <RunAsAccount> <Domain> on ManagementServer01

A container for the management group <ManagementGroupName> either does not exist in domain <Domain> or the Run As Account associated with the AD based agent assignment rule does not have access to the container. Please run MomADAdmin for this Management Group before configuring assignment rules and make sure the associated Run As Account is the member of the Operations Manager Administrator role

Workflow name: CleanerOf__Domain_ManagementServer02_<Domain>

Instance name: AD Assignment Resource Pool

Instance ID: {529CF61E-A357-5AED-73CC-81D48E4327CA}

Management group: <ManagementGroupName>

Any insight on what I'm missing. I tried running it again on ManagementServer02 but just get an error: Failed to create container for ManagementGroup <ManagementGroupName>, it might already exist: The object already exists.

The security group I used is a member of Operations Manager Administrators and the account I used is also a part of the security group.

SCOM and anything else I find interesting

Understanding SCOM Resource Pools

Resource pools are nothing new – they were introduced in SCOM 2012 RTM, for two reasons:

1.  To remove the single-point-of-failure that was the RMS role in SCOM 2007.

2.  To provide a mechanism for high availability of agentless/remote workflows, such as Unix/Linux, Network, and URL monitoring, among others.

That said – they are often not fully understood.

Lets talk about the primary components of a Resource Pool.  I am going to “dumb this down” a lot…. because it is actually quite complex behind the scenes.  So I will break this down more into “roles” with regard to Resource Pools.  The primary “role” components we will discuss are:

1.  Members 2.  Observers 3.  Default Observer

Members   of a pool are either a Management Server or a Gateway Server.

Observers   are “observer-only” roles.  These will be a Management Server or a Gateway server, that do NOT participate in loading workflows for the pool, however they participate in quorum decisions.  This is actually pretty rare to do anything with Healthservice based observer-only roles…. but you would use these if you wanted high availability for your pool, but only a limited number of Healthservices actually running pool workflows.  This is rarely used under normal circumstances.

Default Observer   is the SCOM Operations Database.  This is set to “Enabled” or “Disabled” for every pool.  This is set to enabled by default for all pools created in the UI.  It is set to disabled by default, for all pools created via PowerShell, using the New-ResourcePool command.  The “ reason ” this exists is for the following:

To allow for a pool to have high availability when you have two management servers in a pool

Let’s talk about that.

A pool requires   ONE   or more members.

A pool requires   THREE   (quorum voting) members to establish   high availability .

High availability   is the ability to have a member be unavailable, with no loss of monitoring.

The reason we need THREE (quorum voting) members (not two) for high availability is because of the quorum algorithm.  We require that   MORE than 50%   of the quorum voting members in a pool be available.  If you have only two members of a pool, and one is down, you have lost quorum, because of the “ greater than 50% ” rule.

Therefore – the “Default Observer” was dreamed up, so customers would not   HAVE   to deploy a minimum of   THREE   management servers just to get high availability for their Resource Pools.  It is a special quorum voting “observer” role, to allow for high availability of pools when you have two management servers deployed.  This reduced cost and complexity for a basic SCOM deployment.

Lets break this into “scenarios”

Single management server in pool.

The default observer is enabled by default.

There is no high availability, because the management server is a single point of failure.

The default observer provides no benefit (nor harm) in this case.

Two management servers in pool

There is high availability for the pool, because there are three voting members (2 MS + Default Observer)

If you disable the default observer, you will lose high availability for the pool.

Three management servers in pool

There is high availability for the pool, because there are four voting members (3 MS + Default Observer)

By default – you can only have   ONE   management server down, to maintain the pool. (greater than 50% rule) because if two MS are down, this is 50% of voting members, so pool suicides.

The default observer in this case provides NO value.  It does not increase the number of management servers that can be down, therefore it does not increase pool stability.

You can consider removing the DO (Default Observer) in this scenario.

Four management servers in pool

There is high availability for the pool, because there are five voting members (4 MS + Default Observer)

By default – you can only have   TWO   management server down, to maintain the pool. (greater than 50% rule) because if three MS are down, this is greater than 50% of voting members, so pool suicides.

The default observer in this case provides significant value, because it increases the number of management servers that can be down.  Without the DO in this case, you’d only have 4 quorum members, which only allows for ONE to be unavailable.

Five or more management servers in pool

There is high availability for the pool, because there are 6 voting members (5 MS + Default Observer)

By default – you can only have   TWO   management server down, to maintain the pool. (greater than 50% rule) because if three MS are down, this is exactly 50% of voting members, so pool suicides.

One could argue – that once you have 3 or more management servers in a pool, any “odd” number of management servers would be a good consideration to remove the DO from the pool.  I’d also argue that once you hit 5 management servers, you are probably big enough that the database is under significant load (you wouldn’t typically have 5 management servers in a small environment).  When the database is under heavy load, the default observer might not perform well, and might experience latency in resource pool calculations/voting.

The way the default observer plays a role – is that each MANAGEMENT SERVER in the pool, queries its own local SDK service – which allows it to get data from the database.  There is a table in the SCOM Operations database for the default observer.  So if the SDK service is under load, or the database, we could experience latency that otherwise would not exist.

Gateways as resource pool members

Next – we should discuss the Gateway role as it pertains to Resource Pools.  Microsoft support resource pool membership for Management Servers, AND for Gateway servers.

For instance, a customer might monitor Unix/Linux servers in a firewalled off DMZ, or across a small WAN circuit where you want the agentless communication localized.  In this scenario, a customer might create dedicated resource pools for Gateways in those locations, to perform monitoring.

Single Gateway server in pool

There is no high availability, because the Gateway server is a single point of failure.

The default observer should NOT be used here, because Gateways do not have a local SDK service, therefore they cannot query the database.

Two Gateway servers in pool

One would THINK there is high availability for the pool, because there are two GW’s in the pool, right?  HOWEVER – that is NOT the case.  As we discussed above – we need three voting members to establish high availability for a pool.  Since the Default Observer is NEVER valid for a pool consisting of Gateways, there are only TWO members of this pool.  The pool will run, and will load balance workflows, but if either pool member goes down, the pool suicides.  In this case – you actually have WORSE availability than if you placed a single member in the pool!

In order to maintain high availability for a pool made of Gateways, you need to have THREE GW’s in the pool.

Three Gateway servers in pool

There is high availability for the pool, because there are three voting members (3 GW)

By default – you can only have   ONE   Gateway server down, to maintain the pool. (greater than 50% rule) because if two GW are down, this is >50% of voting members, so pool suicides.

Let’s take a minute and process this.

What we have learned, is that you should remove the DO from any pool comprised of Gateways.

You should   consider   removing the DO from pools when 5 or more Management Servers are present.

If your pools are stable….. and you aren’t having any problems with high availability….. then this really doesn’t make much difference….. which is why the defaults are set like they are.

So we have talked about   pool members , and the   default observer …… but what about the “ observer ” role?

This role is really unique, and will not be used very often.  I cannot think of a single enterprise deployment where I have seen it used.  Generally speaking – if we are adding a dedicated observer for a pool (which is a management server or a GW server) then why not just make that server a full blown pool member?

There is only one scenario where I can think of where this might be useful.  Such as a company with a datacenter with SCOM deployed.  In the SAME DATACENTER, they have a DMZ with two gateways deployed because of firewall rules.  In this case, you could potentially make their parent management server a dedicated observer only, and this would work because tcp_5723 is open already for Healthservice communication.  This is incredibly rare, and the best practice would be to just go ahead and plan for three Gateways servers in the DMZ.

Remember – for resource pool   members   – Microsoft supports Management Servers and Gateways.

For resource pool   observers   – the same, Management Servers and Gateways.

That said – I have done some testing making an * agent * a dedicated observer, such as the DMZ scenario above, and it does work.  The agent becomes a voting member for quorum, and high availability is created by this.  Microsoft didn’t plan or test this scenario – so it is technically unsupported.

Which got me to thinking – “ what if I create a resource pool, and make its membership strictly agents ”???

Well, that works too.  You cannot do this using the UI, but you can in PowerShell.  I create a resource pool of only agents, then set up URL monitoring to that pool, and high availability and load distribution worked great.  Again, not technically supported by Microsoft, but a unique capability nonetheless.

Lastly – I will demonstrate some PowerShell commands to work with this stuff.

To view the pools, their Default Observer status, and if they are Automatic or Manual:

To DISABLE the default observer for a pool:

To ENABLE the default observer for a pool:

To set a pool to MANUAL membership:

To set a pool to AUTOMATIC membership:

To add or remove Management Servers or Gateways from a manual pool:

To add or remove Management Servers or Gateways as Observers only to a pool:

If you want to play with adding AGENTS as a resource pool member or observer (not supported) then simply change “Get-SCOMManagementServer” above – to “Get-SCOMAgent”

is it possible to define group members by resource pool alone, if server 1 is resource pool 1 for my unix computers that use local accounts, and server 2 is resource pool 2 for my unix computers that use ad integrated accounts accounts, i need to distribute the different run as/ action accounts credentials to the relevant servers/resource pools.

server naming conventions and OS versions are so mixed and similar , the only was I can define a group is by adding names one by one to the group or define each object in the profiles run as accounts . creating groups based on their resource pool would be less messy and easier to add and remove servers. any ideas ?

To make sure I understand – you would like to create a Group, defined in a Management Pack, that contains Windows Computer objects, that are members of a specific Resource Group?

We currently manage about 300 Linux servers in a resource pool comprised of 3 SCOM 2012 R2 management servers. We have 20 gateway hosts that we used to manage our Windows infrastructure. I was wondering if it was possible to create a resource pool comprised of gateway servers to monitor our linux environment. I’m not seeing any practical examples of this — other people seem to only use management servers in their Unix/Linux resource pool (as we do now). Is a resource pool with gateway hosts used to monitor unix/linux something that is supported in SCOM 2012 R2? I can’t seem to find any documentation around that scenario, and it seems as though the gateways don’t have a clean way to import/house the requisite certs. Thanks for any advice you may be able to provide!

You can absolutely use GW to monitor Linux.

However, be advised the number of Linux servers that you can mange with a GW is MUCH smaller. This is because MS writes directly to a DB, where the GW must queue and submit data to a MS queue, to be written. The number of Linux servers per GW is 1/5th that of a MS: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/system-center/scom/system-requirements?view=sc-om-2019

With 300 Linux servers, I’d still think you could manage that with 3-5 GW servers, depending on your workflows and filesystem count.

Right now we have 5 Management servers, 3 of which are dedicated to our unix/linux resource pool. We monitor ~1100 windows hosts, and ~300 linux hosts. The benefit of using the gateways for linux monitoring would be that it would solve a lot of firewall headaches for us due to their positioning in our infrastructure. If you have any documentation around creating a resource pool comprised of only gateway servers, and how they are configured in terms of importing the necessary certs/communicating with the management hosts for linux, that would be extremely helpful. Or, do you not need certs on the gateway hosts that manage linux, as the requisite certs are already installed on the management hosts that they would be sending their info through? We are running 2012 R2 with UR14.

Would be great if Microsoft would would let Kevin put documentation up because the official documentation was not helpful.

For anyone authoring mp that leverage resource groups for Gateway Pools…. the key is as Kevin called out Gateways of NOT to use default observer.

Is this valid for SCOM 2019 as well ?

Yes. Nothing has changed with regard to resource pool design.

Hi Kevin. I want to implement SCOM 2019 across 2 Datacenters (primary/secondary). So will have management servers (MS) and gateway servers (GS) in both DCs. It will have sql alwayson DB cluster. Can i put I MS and GS from both DCs in the same resource pool? I also want agent to automatically failover if one datacenter fails. Pls how can i achieve this

I do not recommend this. In general, I do not recommend putting management servers in more than one datacenter. SCOM management servers need to be VERY low latency to the database, or each other. The more agents you have the more important this becomes. Management servers should not spread a resource pool across datacenters either, in general. The exception is when you have a DR datacenter a VERY short distance away, and the network latency is VERY, VERY low (always under 5ms). Even then you will see degraded performance as the MS in the report datacenter has higher latency for SQL locks/writes/stored procedures.

If the purpose is DR, I recommend using a replication technology to replicate your Management Servers to the DR datacenter, and then boot them up in the case of a disaster.

Thanks Kevin. This is for two “primary” datacenters. Please can you advise on the best setup I can use using gateway servers and management servers. This is for 600 servers and 600 network devices

Why do you feel you “need” anything in the “remote” datacenter? If the bandwidth is sufficient to remote DC, I wouldn’t put anything in there and manage all resources from the primary DC. Especially so for Windows Computers…. the difference between managing them remotely and managing them through a local Gateway is very, very small. Everything has to end up back in the database.

If you have significant resources in the remote DC, AND you are concerned about SCOM consuming bandwidth, you potentially could save some bandwidth for monitoring the remote network devices by placing three gateway servers in the remote DC, and creating a resource pool for those network devices (removing the default observer). But honestly, I’d only do this if your network monitoring is consuming significant bandwidth.

People automatically assume “I have a datacenter, there should be some monitoring infrastructure there” but many times, this thought process just increases complexity, lowers availability, and harms performance and stability.

Hi Kevin, We have some resource pools that have 2 Gateways. The purpose of those gateways is monitoring some servers in a different domain, that do not have a trust. Now I know this is even worse than 1 Gateway (from HA perspective). Now I was thinking, can I add a SCOM Management Server as a observer only? I am guessing that the observer doesn’t need to be in that same domain as the Gateways.

I did some testing on my own. I created a Resource Pool with only 2 gateways. No exta observers or what so ever. After stopping the “Microsoft Monitoring Agent” Service on 1 of the Gateways, I get a Resource Pool heartbeat faillure. But within a minute, this alert resolves itself, without me starting the Agent or something.

So from that point, it looks like the Pool didn’t suicide? Only when I stop the Agent on both Gateways, the Resource Pool Heartbeat faillure alerts stays active.

It appears that when I disable the Default Observer, then the pool DOES suicide, when I stop 1 Gateway. When the Default Observer is enbaled, the pool stays alive. Now this sounds weird to me, because from what I understand, the Default Observer shouldn’t work, because the Gateway does not have an SDK.service.

I do have to point out, that in my testing environment, the Management Server and the Gateways are in the same domain. I am using SCOM 1801 here, did anything change perhaps? Or am I missing something here?

For URL monitoring the sizing guide says “URLs monitored by each management server participating in the resource pool”. Does that REALLY mean only management servers can participate in a URL pool. I thought GTWs could do that too.

Gateways can participate in a pool, and can easily do URL monitoring. However, they do not scale the same as a MS, because the GW does not have a local SDK and direct path to the database. A GW must write the output to its local queue, then send that data to a management server. This is what limits the scale of a GW somewhat when looking at agents, linux monitoring, or any agentless work like URL.

Hello Kevin, As you mentioned about replication technology for DR setup. Did you wrote any document about – How to setup DR for SCOM 2016 ? Also; Can use DR on cloud using Azure Site Recovery (primary on-prem and DR on Azure ? Any references will be highly appreciated.

Is your question Answered Amanpreet?

Hello Kevin, Is there possible to create several Ressource Pools for unix monitoring to have the control on the workflows ? We have some developed MP (unix monitoring using cookdown already) and we could in that case reserve some specific workflows generated by specifics MPs, to one specific Pool and distribute the others unix monitoring workflows to the others Management Servers of another other Ressource Pool. Sometime we have some errors ( scripts are being dropped..) and we have noticed that each time one of the two servers of the unix pool took in charge the most of the unix workflows.

If your resources are failing over – then I’d focus on pool sizing/load/stability.

To answer your question – yes, you can distribute workflows to specific servers via specific pools, however those workflows must target a class that is hosted by that specific pool. When you target a UNIX/Linux Computer class, or any class hosted by it – this will follow the same path of pool hosting that the computer follows.

EventID: 26373 – The query resulted in # Rows Due to this the Resource Pool seems to be affected and throwing the alert for RP How do we fix this issue and where we have to start the troubleshooting?

Pingback: SCOM Resource Pools, part 1: how & why to create one - Monitoring Stuff

an interesting dilemma for you…

All Management Servers Resource Pool [Watcher] alerts.

Issue is no management server agent isn’t responding that we can confirm. ie we only ever see the pool and watcher alert (too frequently). Scanning the event logs on all Managment servers (all 23 of them) shows no events for pools. default observer is disabled (that made it better) its only down for 5 min at most. If it wasn’t an event log monitor but a script based one, I’d assume it’s failing in a ‘failed’ state at random – still no idea why as we don’t have logs indicating that either. We won’t go into the noise 12 Managment servers really failing would cause either.

any thoughts. This is a system that’s run for years with no issues, any pool alert prior was confirmable with a root cause, then it started doing this.

I’ve made tasks etc. to aid in investigation, but they always come up clean on 100% of the servers.

Regards Dwayne

Cheers Kevin,

OK, so clearly the ‘Default Observer’ (i.e. the OperationsManager database) serves a similar, if not identical function as a ‘witness’ does in the context of a Windows Server cluster. I have the following 2 questions:

Q1: Can you confirm that the “Default Observer” plays a PASSIVE role in the quorum voting process? In other words, each MS/member collects an extra vote for their ‘team’ if it is able to communicate with the OperationsManager database, but has lost contact with 1 (or more) fellow pool members?

I am basing this understanding on the following passage:

“The way the default observer plays a role – is that each MANAGEMENT SERVER in the pool, queries its own local SDK service – which allows it to get data from the database. There is a table in the SCOM Operations database for the default observer. So if the SDK service is under load, or the database, we could experience latency that otherwise would not exist.”

Q2: What happens if a ‘Default Observer’-enabled pool containing 2 members loses contact with each other, but not with the OperationsManager database? Would this not lead to a ‘split brain’-equivalent scenario, where both pool members simultaneously attempt to ‘take control’ of the workflows targeting the pool?

Kind regards, Larry

Q1: Yes it has a vote, Kevin explains this above as does the typical cluster quorum disk for instance. this is to give HA to 2 server pools by being bale to maintain a majority when one fails/stopes/etc

to stop its vote ie on odd count pools, or gateway pools etc you have to disable it. I don’t think there is a way to change its vote value as per clustering (which can be a dangerous thing if not done right especially longer term if the environment grows)

Q2: no its not like clustering in these regards. there is always an observer checking on this (ie a pool member)

this can be seen if you trace the pool activity

0]11840.30752::12/16/2022-09:24:28.216 [PoolManager] [] [Failover] :CClient::CheckAckReceived{Failover_cpp2674}UPDATING AVAILABILITY INFO for process ServerA.test.local, in pool with id , from observer ServerB.test.local, with timestamp 12/16/2022-09:24:27.631, process version , process counter , and alive status 1.

if they can both reach the DB all the roles/pool allocations are in here and only one will be seen as down in a two server pool as the observer say ServerA can see itself but not ServerB so flags ServerB as UNAVAILABLE and the DB updated to reflect.

[0]11840.30752::12/16/2022-09:24:28.216 [PoolManager] [] [Failover] :CPoolMember::UpdateAvailability{pool_cpp2979}CPool member ServerB.test.local with id in pool with id is now UNAVAILABLE.

so clearly no split brain, one is marked down, one is working and if you have the default observer you’re still up

Kevin please correct me if I’m wrong anywhere here. I can only go on observation.

help good morning! I’m going to ask a question about pooling, but it’s a little off topic, I work with SCOM 2022 and had a network pool with more than 1000 devices. I created 2 new pools using different management servers. Delete the old pool and discover devices from our new pools. However, some devices appear to be duplicates in the monitoring/network device and one of them is gray and the other is healthy but in the administration/network the devices do not appear twice. Gray devices generate an alert and do not allow to be reset, when I tried to reset via powershell I received a message that there are no pools for the device. Could you help me with this problem?

SCOM 2012 AD integration not populating in AD

So I’ve got a little SCOM 2012 lab. One DC, two database servers, four management servers, one Exchange 2010 and one soon to be SharePoint 2010 server.

The summary of what I was experiencing was that when I configured AD integration using the wizard in the SCOM console, nothing was populated into AD even an hour later, and no manually installed agents are automatically assigned as a result, even after properly using the Mom AD Admin EXE to prepare active directory.

The end result was the client can’t find a policy in AD as shown below.

Event 2011: The Health Service did not find any policy in Active Directory

In active directory users and computers, none of my management servers were populating underneath the Operations Management \ Mario, and each of them should have their own corresponding containers and AD groups if all is working properly.

I tried several things with no luck:

• Verifying I had properly run the MOMADAdmin.exe with the proper switches: MOMADAdmin.exe <ManagementGroupName> <MOMAdminSecurityGroup> < RunAsAccount> <Domain>
• Completely loosening permissions on the OperationsManager container and child objects (Sidebar: NEVER EVER DO THIS, read this article to see why)
• Selecting a different runas account and profile ensure full domain admin rights
• Restarting client agents, servers and DCs
• Verified my LDAP inclusion query was valid by using Active Directory Users and Computers advanced search
• Telling my laptop “You look fat compared to the new macbooks” to hurt its feelings.

None of the above worked. After letting it bake overnight, a call with Microsoft the following morning and a refresh of ADUC indeed verified that you should plan on waiting at least 24 hours for that to be updated in AD with 2012, a change from 1 hour since 2007 . When I came in the next morning, everything was working as shown below. You can look for the operations manager event 11470 on the management servers to verify successful publishing to AD.

Here are some good articles on AD integration with SCOM as a bonus. Hooray for bonuses!

AD Integration Considerations – My quick summary of this article is: don’t use AD integration unless you’re really sure you need to. Why not just use the command line if you’re going to bake it into your base images? Really the only time you need this is if you have multiple separate management groups in the same large domain.

You didnt really had to wait a whole day. You could have restarted the services, which causes the rule to run. By the way, this task is run as a rule on OpsMgr Rms.

Except there is no RMS in SCOM 2012. I rebooted the servers several times, so I’m pretty sure that would have done it if it really was a service restart.

Have you ever tried to debug a situation where notifications seem to be working but only part of the time in Operations Manager? I ran into this situation recently and found a couple of items which assist with this specifically for Operations Manager 2012. This blog post will cover:

What is a resource pool?

• General recommendations to debug notifications send through a resource pool

How to determine what server is active in a resource pool

Resource Pools were added in Operations Manager 2012. As a quick definition for what they are: “ A resource pool is a collection of management servers used to distribute work amongst themselves and take over work from a failed member.” – subset from http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh230706.aspx . I would update that slightly to the following definition based upon this discussion that a gateway can also be a member of a resource pool:  http://www.systemcentercentral.com/BlogDetails/tabid/143/IndexID/94138/Default.aspx . “ A resource pool is a collection of management servers and/or gateway servers used to distribute work amongst themselves and take over work from a failed member.”  

For additional readings on resource pools I recommend:

General recommendations to debug notifications send through a resource pool:

The following is a summary of insights and best practices I’ve been combined based on feedback from most of the OpsMgr alpha-geeks on the planet. (Thank you Kevin, Scott, Flemming, Tao, Dieter and Kevin).

• Don’t forget first step debugs like doing a telnet to the SMTP server both by IP address and by name (verifying port connectivity and name resolution). This needs to be done from EVERY management server which is part of the notifications resource pool (which by default is all management servers in the management group). If specific servers cannot connect to the SMTP server because of firewall or routing restrictions consider removing these from the notifications resource pool (down to a minimum of two in a production environment when not debugging).
• Try locking down the notification pool down to 1 management server during debugging.
• The best logging will be the SMTP server logs. If you cannot get SMTP server logs, setup a network trace and look at the network data.
• Once alerting is configured, OpsMgr will alert if it is unable to send email. The only exception to this that was seen is where the SMTP server accepts the email and then discards it elsewhere.
• Try Tao’s email script ( http://blog.tyang.org/2010/07/05/powershell-script-test-smtp/ ) adding a line to initialize the MOM api and write an event to the Operations Manager log that you sent an email.
• If the email is getting into the email server you may need to trace the emails through the email system itself.
• Loading up a local IIS relay for OpsMgr to go to first makes it easy to identify what emails are being sent and gives you access to the full logs for the first hop of the email transfer.
• For a small number of alerts you can also create a script which dumps everything to a text file with PowerShell ( http://scug.be/dieter/2011/05/11/scom-dump-alerts-to-text-file-and-mail/ ) and then sends out a blat.exe or PowerShell mail. This gives you a file generated and timestamped so you can rule out OpsMgr.

Update : A member of the System Center Central community (Alex) provided an updated query which covers all application pools and has results which are more consistent than what I put together. Alex, thank you for writing this and for sharing it!

Sample output results from my lab (single management server) and another lab are shown below: (truncated to only the two relevant fields – name of the management server and name of the resource pool)

Summary : I hope that this blog post provided some interesting insights into resource pools, how to debug them and how to determine who the active resource pool member is!

Update : Alexey Zhuravlev put together a sample pack on how to debug the active pool member which is available at: http://www.systemcentercentral.com/pack-catalog/demo-pool-owner/

Azure Account "Add Role Assignment" Disabled

I have the following permissions in my Azure account

But when I want to "add a role assignment for an Application" I noticed that my account for adding roles has been disable, see image

Can someone let me know if it's actually possible to add a application while my account to add roles has been disabled?

• azure-active-directory
• azure-resource-manager

• Please note that, you should have either User Access Administrator or Owner permissions to add role assignment. It's not possible without having these roles. Refer this –  Sridevi Commented Jun 10, 2022 at 10:24
• Sridev, thanks for reaching out. Is it possible with the permissions I currently have to assign myself "User Access Administrator" or "Owner permissions"? –  Patterson Commented Jun 10, 2022 at 10:34
• With your permissions, you cannot assign those roles. You should contact the person with Global Administrator role to have those permissions. –  Sridevi Commented Jun 10, 2022 at 10:43

As I mentioned in the comments, to assign roles to any resource in Azure Portal, you should have either Owner or User Access Administrator roles on your Azure subscription.

• Microsoft.Authorization/roleAssignments/write permissions are included in these roles that allows to assign roles.
• Global Administrator has the rights to assign these roles.
• As you have only Contributor role, you cannot assign roles, but you can create and manage resources.
• You must contact the person with Global Administrator/Privileged Role Administrator role to assign those permissions for you.

Please check the below from MsDoc :

After acquiring any of those 2 roles, Add role assignment option will be enabled.

You can check the below references for more details:

Manage Active Directory Resource Pool synchronization in Project Server 2013

• 5 contributors

Summary: Use the Active Directory Resource Pool Synchronization settings in Project Server 2013 to quickly add Active Directory users as enterprise resources. Applies to: Project Server 2013

The Active Directory Resource Pool Synchronization settings are available through the Project Server 2013 Server Settings page in the Operational Policies section. For more information about related administrative settings, see Operational Policies in Project Server 2013 .

In this article:

Changes in Active Directory Resource Pool synchronization for Project Server 2013

User synchronization scenarios, requirements for enterprise resource pool synchronization, configure enterprise resource pool synchronization, schedule enterprise resource pool synchronization, requirements for synchronizing the enterprise resource pool with active directory users in a different domain, sharepoint 2013 people picker.

Keeping your Project Server 2013 resources synchronized with Active Directory is a good way to ensure that your resources are always current, and to automatically add the newest group's members to your list of resources.

Project Server 2013 Active Directory Enterprise Resource Pool synchronization is used to create or update multiple Project Server enterprise resources at the same time. For example, new employees in your department can automatically be added as Project Server enterprise resources as long as they are in the Active Directory group selected for synchronization.

Enterprise Resource Pool synchronization also updates enterprise resource properties with the most current data from Active Directory. For example, an employee's name and email address may change because of marriage. As long as the change is made in Active Directory and the user is in the linked group, the change occurs in the user's Enterprise Resource properties when synchronization occurs.

The Enterprise Resource Pool can be mapped with up to five Active Directory groups for synchronization. These Active Directory groups can contain nested groups whose members are also synchronized.

It is important to note the following changes in Active Directory Resource Pool synchronization in Project Server 2013:

No Project Server user accounts will be automatically created for resources that are added to the Enterprise Resource Pool through Active Directory synchronization.

You can synchronize up to five Active Directory groups with the Enterprise Resource Pool in Project Server 2013.

The following are the two most common actions that occur during the Enterprise Resource Pool synchronization process:

A new Project Server enterprise resource can be created based on Active Directory membership By adding a new member to the Active Directory group that is being used for your Enterprise Resource Pool synchronization, you automatically also create a resource for this user in Project Server..

An existing Project Server user account's metadata (for example, name, email address, and so on) can be updated if it has changed in Active Directory For example, if a resource's last name was changed in Active Directory, the Project Server 2013 Enterprise Resource Pool synchronization makes sure that the resource name is also changed in the Project Server Enterprise Resource Pool.

The following table describes all Active Directory to Project Server 2013 Enterprise Resource Pool synchronization scenarios, as well as their corresponding actions:

Before you perform this procedure, confirm the following:

You have access to Project Server through Project Web App with an account that has the Manage Active Directory Settings and the Manage users and groups global settings enabled.

The Service Application (SA) service account for the Project Server instance has Read access to all Active Directory groups and user accounts involved in the synchronization.

You can verify this account in the Service Application properties on the Service Application Administration page on the SharePoint Central Administration website.

The identity under which the Queue service runs needs to have access to all the forest and domains in which it is expected to find users.

The SharePoint 2013 People Picker must be able to resolve groups and access user information from Active Directory in order for Project Server 2013 Active Directory ERP synchronization to work. The People Picker allows you to search for Active Directory groups to which you want to synchronize to the ERP. The SharePoint 2013 People Picker is described in more detail later in this article.

In the Project Web App Server Settings, you access the Active Directory Enterprise Resource Pool Synchronization page in which you can configure your settings.

To configure Enterprise Resource Pool synchronization

In Project Web App, click the Settings icon, and then click Project Web App Settings .

On the Project Web App Server Settings page, in the Operational Policies section, click Active Directory Resource Pool Synchronization .

On the Active Directory Enterprise Resource Pool Synchronization page, in the Active Directory Group section, type the name or Service Account Manager (SAM) account of the active directory group or groups you want to synchronize with the Enterprise Resource Pool. If you are unsure of the group name, you can type part of the group name to display groups in Active Directory that contain the text string. The SharePoint 2013 People Picker provides the search functionality that displays the Active Directory groups you are looking for. To select a group from a remote forest, type the fully qualified domain name of the group (for example, [email protected]).

You can synchronize to a security or distribution group of any scope (Local, Global, or Universal).

You can enable inactive accounts to be reactivated if they are found in the Active Directory group during synchronization. To do so, in Sync options , select Automatically reactivate currently inactive users if found in Active Directory during sync .

For example, an employee moves to a different role within their company and their Project Server user account is inactivated (they are removed from the Enterprise Resource Pool Active Directory group). The user later decides to go back to their old job, and they are added back to the Enterprise Resource Pool Active Directory group. If Automatically reactivate currently inactive users if found in Active Directory during sync is enabled, the user's account would be automatically reactivated upon synchronization.

For this option to be available, it requires the October 2014 Cumulative Update for Project Server 2013. For more information about this update, see this Microsoft Project Support Blog post.

Click Save to save the settings and have synchronization scheduled to recur at the default setting (once a day at 12:00 AM). Click Save and Synchronize Now if you want to synchronize your Enterprise Resource Pool immediately, save your settings, and have synchronization scheduled to recur at the default setting.

You can check the status of the Enterprise Resource Pool synchronization by returning to the Active Directory Enterprise Resource Pool Synchronization page and reviewing the information in the Synchronization Status section. It contains information such as when the last successful synchronization occurred. If last synchronization failed for any reason, it will also post a timestamp of when it occurred if you wanted to search for more information in the ULS logs.

In Project Server 2013, scheduling synchronization of your enterprise resource pool with Active Directory groups is done through the Timer Job Status page in Central Administration.

To schedule Enterprise Resource Pool synchronization

In Central Administration, click Monitoring .

On the Monitoring page, in the Timer Job section, click Check job status.

On the Timer Job Status page, find and then click Project Web App: Synchronization of AD with the Enterprise Resource Pool job for <PWA site name> .

For example: Project Web App: Synchronization of AD with the Enterprise Resource Pool job for https://contoso/pwa.

On the Edit Timer Job page, in the Recurring Schedule section, you can configure when the synchronization will run on a recurring basis. Under This timer job is scheduled to run , you can select one of the following options, based on your company's requirements:

Minutes : Allows you to specify a frequency in which the job will run — Every x minutes .

Hourly : Allows you to specify an interval in which the job will randomly run — Starting every hour between x minutes past the hour and no later than y minutes past the hour .

Daily : Allows you to specify an interval in which the job will randomly run — Starting every day between <time of day> and no later than <time of day> .

Weekly : Allows you to specify in which the job will randomly run — Starting every week between <day of week and time of day> and no later than <day of week and time of day> .

Monthly : Provides two options:

Allows you to specify an interval in which the job will randomly run — By date: starting every month between <time of day and day of month> and no later than <time of day and day of month> .

Allows you to specify an exact time of the month in which the timer job will run — By day: starting every month <time of day, day of the week, and week of the month . For example, "12:00 AM on the first Sunday".

Click OK to save your configuration changes.

You can click Run Now at any time to run the timer job immediately.

Note that several options provide a period of execution time to run the job instead of an exact time or frequency. Selecting an option that provides a period of execution time allows the timer service to select a random time within the parameters specified in order to run the job on each application server. Using an option with a period of execution time is appropriate for high-load jobs which run on multiple servers in the farm. Running this type of job on all servers of the servers simultaneously might place an unreasonable load on the farm.

Imagine that you need to synchronize your Enterprise Resource Pool with Active Directory users that exist in a domain other than the one that Project Server 2013 is installed on. For example, your organization may acquire a new company, or your branch may need to add users from a different branch within your organization. In this scenario, a two-way trust relationship must exist between the domains in order for Active Directory users in one domain to synchronize with the Enterprise Resource Pool in a Project Server 2013 installation that exists on a different domain.

Project Server 2013 does not support synchronizing your Enterprise Resource Pool or security groups with Active Directory users across different domains in which only a one-way trust relationship exists between domains.

As mentioned earlier in this article, Project Server 2013 can synchronize a user from Active Directory only if this user can first be found by the People Picker.

People Picker will only be able to return users, groups, and claims in the following topologies:

The domain in which your SharePoint Server 2013/Project Server 2013 farm is currently installed.

A domain that has a two-way trust relationship with the domain in which your SharePoint Server 2013/Project Server 2013 farm is currently installed.

By default, People Picker only returns users, groups, and claims from the domain on which SharePoint Server 2013 is installed. If you want People Picker to return query results from more than one forest or domain, you can create a two-way trust between the forests or domains. For both these cases, People Picker functions automatically, and no additional configuration is necessary. When two-way trusts are established, the People Picker automatically returns results found in the trusted domains.

For example, the Contoso.com domain has a two-way trust with Litware.com and Fabrikam.com. The Project Server 2013 ERP synchronization defined in the Contoso.com domain in which the Project Server 2013 farm resides is configured to include Bob (from the Fabrikam.com domain) and Mindy (from the Litware.com domain). People Picker finds both groups in which both Bob and Mindy reside in their domain's Active Directory, the Project Server 2013 ERP synchronization will synchronize the group and both users successfully. If no trust or a one-way trust existed between the Contoso.com domain and the other domains, the users would not be able to synchronize to the Project Server 2013 ERP.

Team Assignment Pool (resource field)

Data Type     Yes/No

Entry Type     Calculated or entered

Description     The Team Assignment Pool field shows whether the current resource is a team resource (Yes). A team resource is a single named resource, for example, "Legal" or "Sales," which represents a group of several enterprise resources, any of whom can fulfill the work on assigned tasks.

How Calculated     If you create a team resource in the Resource Center in Project Server, and add that team resource to your enterprise project, this field is set to Yes automatically. You can also change this field from within Project.

Best Uses     Add the Team Assignment Pool field to a resource sheet when you need to see which resources are team resources and which are not. Also use this field when you need to create a team resource or change an existing work resource to a team resource. You can then assign this team resource to tasks that you want to be available to all members of that team. In Project Web App, team members are able to see these tasks and assign themselves to them.

Example     In the Resource Sheet, you create a new work resource named "Marketing." You add the Team Assignment Pool field to the sheet, and change its setting to Yes , making it a team resource. Switching to the Gantt Chart, you assign the new Marketing team resource to several tasks, including "Develop new product brochure" and "Create trade show plan." You publish the changes to Project Server. In Project Web App, the members of the Marketing team —including Erin and Wilson—see the new tasks assigned to Marketing. Erin assigns herself to the "Develop new product brochure" task, and Wilson assigns himself to the "Create trade show plan" task.

Remarks     Although the Team Assignment Pool field is available for local projects, it is only useful when working with an enterprise project through Project Server.

More posts.. History of Sverdlovsk Oblast The first people settled here in the Stone Age. At the end of the 16th century, the Russian kingdom gained control of the region. In the 17th century, the most significant stage of the initial development of this area happened, when Russian settlers began a massive advance to the east. In 1598, the first settlers founded the town of Verkhoturye on the territory of the present Sverdlovsk region. Verkhoturye became the first capital of the Urals because of its strategic location on the Babinov road - an important crossroads of trade routes. Sverdlovsk oblast acted as a transshipment base between the central part of the country and the actively developed regions of Siberia and Central Asia. The presence of strategic reserves of iron and copper ore, as well as large forest areas, predetermined the specialization of the region (ferrous and non-ferrous metallurgy, wood processing, mining, etc.). Exploration of minerals in the Sverdlovsk region began at the end of the 17th century. In the 18th century, the Demidov dynasty founded several plants in the region that turned into large production and economic complexes. The local industry was characterized by a high level of technological development. The blast furnaces of the Ekaterinburg, Nevyansk, Tagil iron-making plants were superior in performance to the best European models of that time, and their products were the leading item of Russian exports. More historical facts… The launch of the Trans-Siberian Railway became a landmark event in the life of the Middle Urals, allowing large-scale export of plant products. Between 1920 and 1930, the Urals was able to once again take its place as the leading industrial region of Russia by strengthening its mining industry, creating new production facilities, developing energy and mass urban construction. In the years of the first five-year plans, along with the reconstruction of old enterprises, several new large industrial facilities were opened: Uralmashzavod, Uralelektrotyazhmash, tool and ball bearing plants in Sverdlovsk, Uralvagonzavod and Nizhny Tagil metallurgical plant in Nizhny Tagil, pipe plants in Pervouralsk and Kamensk-Uralsky, copper smelters in Krasnouralsk and Sredneuralsk, the Ural aluminum smelter in Kamensk-Uralsky and others. On October 3, 1938, the territory of Sverdlovsk Oblast was finally formed. During the Second World War, from July 1941 to December 1942, more than 2 million people came to the Urals region, of which more than 700 thousand stayed in Sverdlovsk Oblast. In the postwar period, Sverdlovsk Oblast continued to develop as a major industrial center of the Urals. The industry of the region was a supplier of the most important types of machinery, products of ferrous and non-ferrous metallurgy, chemical, electric power, light, and food industries. Mechanical engineering and metalworking retained their leading place in the structure of the local industry. Being one of the most important industrial and defense centers of the Soviet Union, the Sverdlovsk region remained closed to foreigners until 1991. Beautiful nature of Sverdlovsk Oblast Forest stream in Sverdlovsk Oblast Author: Vlasov Pavel Sverdlovsk Oblast nature Author: Oleg Seliverstov Sverdlovsk Oblast is rich in forests Sverdlovsk Oblast - Features Sverdlovsk Oblast received its name from its administrative center - the city of Sverdlovsk (Yekaterinburg). The name appeared on January 17, 1934, together with the formation of the region. After renaming Sverdlovsk back to Yekaterinburg, the region was not renamed and retained its Soviet name. The territory of Sverdlovsk Oblast stretches from west to east for 560 kilometers, from north to south - for 660 kilometers. The climate is continental. The average temperature in January is about minus 16-20 degrees Celsius, in July - plus 19-30 degrees Celsius. The Sverdlovsk region, being one of the oldest mining regions of Russia, is rich in a variety of natural resources. Today, the local mineral and raw materials base provides a significant part of the production of Russian vanadium, bauxite, chrysotile-asbestos, iron ore, refractory clay. The region is the main raw source for Russian aluminum industry. There are significant reserves of nickel ores, precious metals, mineral and fresh groundwater, practically unlimited reserves of building materials. There are deposits of stone and brown coals, chromites, manganese and certain prospects for discovering oil and gas fields. Forests cover about 80% of the territory. Sverdlovsk Oblast is an important transport hub of Russia. The Trans-Siberian Railway passes through its territory. Koltsovo is a large international airport located in Yekaterinburg. The largest cities and towns of Sverdlovsk Oblast are Yekaterinburg (1,493,600), Nizhny Tagil (340,700), Kamensk-Uralsky (162,500), Pervouralsk (117,700), Serov (93,900), Novouralsk (79,000), and Verkhnyaya Pyshma (76,400). Sverdlovsk Oblast is known for its traditional International exhibition of armament in Nizhny Tagil, annual Russian Economic Forum in Yekaterinburg. Yekaterinburg is the 4th largest scientific center in Russia after Moscow, Saint-Petersburg and Novosibirsk. It is one of the most important industrial regions of Russia. The structure of the local industrial complex is dominated by ferrous and non-ferrous metallurgy, enrichment of uranium and iron ore, engineering. The largest enterprises of ferrous and nonferrous metallurgy are the Nizhnetagilsky Metallurgical Combine, the Kachkanar GOK Vanadiy, VSMPO-Avisma, the Pervouralsky Novotrubny Plant, the Bogoslovsky and the Ural Aluminum Smelters, the Kamensk-Uralsk Metallurgical Plant, the Sinarsky Pipe Plant, the Seversk Pipe Plant, as well as enterprises of the Ural Mining and Metallurgical Company (Uralelectromed, Sredneuralsky Copper Smelting Plant, Metallurgical Plant named after A.K. Serov, etc.). The most important enterprises of the machine-building complex are Uralvagonzavod, Ural Heavy Machinery Plant, Uralelectrotyazhmash, Uralkhimmash, Ural Turbine Plant, Ural Civil Aviation Plant. Uralkhimplast, which produces synthetic resins, is the largest chemical plant in Russia. Attractions of Sverdlovsk Oblast Coniferous forests and numerous rivers make the nature of the Sverdlovsk region attractive for tourists. There is a number of reserves and nature parks: Visimsky State Nature Reserve, Denezhkin Kamen National Nature Reserve, Pripyshminsky Bory National Park, Oleny Ruchi Nature Park, Chusovaya River Nature Park, Bazhovskiye Places Nature Park, Rezhevskoy Nature and Mineralogical Reserve. Some of the most interesting sights located outside of Yekaterinburg: Nevyansk Tower - a leaning tower in the center of the town of Nevyansk, built by the order of Akinfiy Demidov, the founder of the mining industry in the Urals, in the first half of the 18th century; Cathedral of the Savior’s Transfiguration in Nevyansk; Battle glory of the Urals - an open-air museum of military equipment in Verkhnyaya Pyshma; Automotive equipment museum in Verkhnyaya Pyshma - one of the largest collections of Russian cars, special equipment, motorcycles, bicycles; Obelisk symbolizing the border between Europe and Asia in Pervouralsk; Verkhoturye - a historical town with a kremlin and a lot of churches called the spiritual center of the Urals.

Only in the southwest does the oblast stretch onto the western slopes of the Ural Mountains . The highest mountains all rise in the North Urals, Konzhakovsky Kamen at 1,569 metres (5,148   ft) and Denezhkin Kamen at 1,492 metres (4,895   ft) . The Middle Urals is mostly hilly country with no discernible peaks; the mean elevation is closer to 300 to 500 metres (980 to 1,640   ft) above sea level. [9] Principal rivers include the Tavda , the Tura , the Chusovaya , and the Ufa , the latter two being tributaries of the Kama .

The area is traversed by the northeasterly line of equal latitude and longitude. Rich in natural resources, the oblast is especially famous for metals ( iron , copper , gold , platinum ), minerals ( asbestos , gemstones , talcum ), marble and coal . It is mostly here that the bulk of Russian industry was concentrated in the 18th and 19th centuries. The area has continental climate patterns, with long cold winters (average temperatures reaching −15   °C (5   °F) to −25   °C (−13   °F) on the Western Siberian Plain) and short warm summers.

A model attribution edit summary is to the . . The territory of the region has been inhabited since ancient times. Numerous sites of ancient people were discovered, dating from the Paleolithic to the Iron Age. The Upper Paleolithic includes the Garinsky site on the right bank of the Sosva river near the village of Gari , the site in the Shaitansky grotto, and the site in the Bezymyanny cave (X millennium BC). [10] [11] In 1890, the 11 thousand years old (Mesolithic) Shigir idol was discovered. [12] A settlement and a burial ground in the Kalmatsky Brod tract are located on the right bank of the Iset river and date back to the Sarmatian time (from the 3rd century BC to the 2nd century AD). They belong to the Kalmak archaeological culture. In the Kalmatsky Brod burial ground, the skeletal skulls were strongly deformed by tight bandaging in early childhood, which indicates the penetration of steppe ethnic elements to the north. [13] There are numerous pictograms on the Koptelovsky stone, on the Oblique stone, on the Two-eyed stone, Starichnaya, Serginskaya, the rock paintings of the Bronze Age on the Neyva River, Tagil River (villages Brekhovaya, Gaevaya, Komelskaya), rock carvings on Shaitan-Kamen on the right bank of the Rezh river tied to indigenous Ural population, possibly speakers of a Ugric language . [14] [15] The Gostkovskaya Pisanitsa refers to the Middle Ages. [12] Before the first Russian colonists arrived to the region, it was populated by various Turkic and Ugrian tribes. By the 16th century, when the Middle Urals were under influence of various Tatar khanates, the strongest local state was the Vogul Pelym principality with its center in Pelym . The Russian conquest of the Khanate of Kazan in the 1550s paved the way further east, which was now free from Tatar depredations (see Yermak Timofeyevich ). The first surviving Russian settlements in the area date back to the late 16th   – early 17th centuries ( Verkhoturye , 1598; Turinsk , 1600; Irbit , 1633; Alapayevsk , 1639). At that time, those small trading posts were governed under Siberian administration in Tobolsk . After the 1708 administrative reform, Verkhoturye, Pelym and Turinsk became a part of the new Siberian Governorate , in 1737 their territories were assigned to the Kazan Governorate . During the 18th century, rich resources of iron and coal made Ural an industrial heartland of Russia. After getting control over Ural mines, the Demidov family put the region in the forefront of Russian industrialization. Yekaterinburg , Nevyansk and Tagil ironworks, founded in the 1700s to 1720s, soon joined the ranks of the major producers in Europe. Throughout the 18th and 19th century those newly founded factory towns enjoyed a status of special mining-metallurgical districts allowed to have a certain rate of financial and proprietary autonomy. During the 1781 reform middle Ural finally got its own regional administration in the form of the Perm Governorate . When in 1812 the Russian government legalized gold digging for its citizens, Middle Ural became a center of gold mining. Entrepreneurs of the Perm Governorate also started the gold rush in West Siberia, soon Yekaterinburgers began to dominate the Russian market of precious metals and gemstones. After the emancipation reform of 1861 , major Middle Uralian industries that were heavily dependent on serf labor entered decline, although it also allowed light industry to thrive. In 1878, Perm and Yekaterinburg were connected with a railroad, in 1888, railroads reached Tyumen , and ultimately, in 1897, Yekaterinburg joined the Trans-Siberian network . Emergence of railroad transportation helped to revitalize economy of Ural. The Bolsheviks established their power in Yekaterinburg and Perm during the first days of the October Revolution of 1917. In early 1918 the dethroned Czar Nicholas II and his family were transferred under custody to Yekaterinburg. Local Bolsheviks decided autonomously to execute the royal family on July 17, 1918, to prevent its rescue of by the approaching White Army forces. Ten days later Yekaterinburg was captured by the Czechoslovak troops of Sergei Wojciechowski . For the next year the Anti-bolshevik forces took control over the region. On 19 August 1918, Provisional Government of Ural was formed in Yekaterinburg by a coalition of liberal and democratic socialist parties, it was supposed to serve as a buffer between the Komuch and Provisional Siberian governments. After the Kolchak coup d'état in Omsk in November 1918, the Government of Ural was disbanded. In July 1919, in the course of the Yekaterinburg offense, Yekaterinburg and the surrounding areas were recaptured by the Red Army forces under command of Vasily Shorin . On the July 15th, the Perm Governorate was split by the Soviets and the east, for the first time in history, became a separate region, the Yekaterinburg Governorate. It was soon abolished and replaced by the Ural Oblast (1923-1934). In the 1930s many industrial enterprises were established and built with the help of forced labour. [16] Local industry received another impetus during World War II, when important producing facilities were relocated here from the European part of Russia to safeguard them from the advancing Germans (for example, IMZ-Ural , Kamensk-Uralsky Metallurgical Works ). In the postwar period much of the region was off-limits to foreigners. It was over Sverdlovsk that the American U-2 spy plane pilot Gary Powers was shot down on May 1, 1960, while on a reconnaissance mission. In 1979, there was an anthrax outbreak caused by an accident in a facility to develop biological weapons. In 1993, Governor Eduard Rossel responded to perceived economic inequality by attempting to create a " Ural Republic ." Sverdlovsk led the "Urals Five" ( Kurgan Oblast , Orenburg Oblast , Perm Krai , Chelyabinsk Oblast and Sverdlovsk) in a call for greater regional power. They argued that the oblasts deserved as much power as the ethnic homeland republics . The Urals Republic Constitution went into effect on October 27, 1993. Then Russian President Boris Yeltsin dissolved the Urals Republic and the Sverdlovsk Parliament 10 days later (on November 9).

Residents identified themselves as belonging to a total of 148 different ethnic groups, including: [17] 3,684,843 Russians (90.6%); 143,803 Tatars (3.5%); 35,563 Ukrainians (0.9%); 31,183 Bashkirs (0.8%); 23,801 Mari (0.6%); 14,914 Germans (0.4%); 14,215 Azerbaijanis (0.3%); 13,789 Udmurts (0.3%); 11,670 Belarusians (0.3%); 11,510 Chuvash (0.26%); 11,501 Armenians (0.3%); 11,138 Tajiks (0.3%); 9,702 Mordovians (0.22%); 9,358 Uzbeks (0.2%); 232,978 people were registered from administrative databases, and could not declare an ethnicity. It is estimated that the proportion of ethnicities in this group is the same as that of the declared group.

According to a 2012 survey [25] 43% of the population of Sverdlovsk Oblast adheres to the Russian Orthodox Church , 5% are nondenominational Christians (excluding Protestant churches), 3% are Muslims , 2% are Orthodox Christian believers without belonging to any Church or are members of other Orthodox churches , 1% are adherents of the Slavic native faith (Rodnovery), and 0.3% are adherents of forms of Hinduism ( Vedism , Krishnaism or Tantrism ). In addition, 36% of the population declares to be "spiritual but not religious", and 9.7% is atheist . [25] The most important institutions of higher education include Ural Federal University , Ural State Medical University , Ural State University of Economics , Ural State Law University , Ural State Mining University and Ural State Academy of Architecture and Arts , all located in the capital Yekaterinburg. The oblast's Charter, adopted on 17 December 1994, with subsequent amendments, establishes the oblast government. The Governor is the chief executive, who appoints the Government, consisting of ministries and departments. The Chairman of the Government, commonly referred to as the Prime Minister, is appointed with the consent of the lower house of the legislature , a process similar to the appointment of the federal Prime Minister . But the Governor cannot nominate the same candidate more than twice, yet he/she can dismiss the house after three failed attempts to appoint the Premier. [ needs update ] The Legislative Assembly is the regional parliament of Sverdlovsk Oblast. Until 2011, it was a bicameral legislature consisting of the Oblast Duma, the lower house , and the House of Representatives, the upper house . [27] Before the reform, members of the legislature served four-year terms with half of the Duma re-elected every two years. The Duma (28   members) was elected in party lists. The 21   members of the House of Representatives were elected in single-seat districts in a first-past-the-post system. The Legislative Assembly was the first bicameral legislature outside an autonomous republic, and the first regional legislature in Russia to elect members based on both party lists and single-seat districts . As of 2021, the Legislative Assembly is a unicameral legislature with a total of 50 seats, with half of the members elected by single-mandate constituencies and the other half elected in party lists for five-year terms. [28] [29] Compliance with the Charter is enforced by the Charter Court. The existence of such regional courts in Russia, formed and functioning outside the federal judiciary, although challenged, has been upheld and persisted successfully in most constituent members of the Federation where they were established. Until President Putin 's reforms of 2004, the Governor was elected by direct vote for terms of four years. Eduard Rossel has been the only elected governor (first elected governor for an oblast in Russia) since 1995 (appointed in 1991 and dismissed in 1993 by President Yeltsin ), re-elected in 1999 and 2003. Since 2012, the oblast's Governor is Yevgeny Kuyvashev .

In the 1996 presidential election, Boris Yeltsin , a native of the region who lived in Sverdlovsk until the 1980s, won over 70% of the vote. In the regional elections in 2010 in the Sverdlovsk Oblast, United Russia received minimal support relative to other regions - only 39.79% of votes. [30] Even though it could do with modernizing, the region's industries are quite diverse. 12% of Russia's iron and steel industry is still concentrated in Sverdlovsk oblast. Iron and copper are mined and processed here, the logging industry and wood-processing are important, too. The largest companies in the region include Ural Mining and Metallurgical Company , UralVagonZavod , Enel Russia , Nizhniy Tagil Iron and Steel Works , Federal Freight . [31] Yekaterinburg is a prominent road, rail and air hub in the Ural region. As the economic slump subsided, several European airlines started or resumed flights to the city. These include Lufthansa , British Airways , CSA , Turkish Airlines , Austrian Airlines and Finnair . Malév Hungarian Airlines used to be among those carriers but they had to drop their flights to SVX ( IATA airport code for Sverdlovsk) after a few months.

Yekaterinburg & Sverdlovsk Oblast History, Politics, and Economics Yekaterinburg lies at the crossroads between Europe and Asia, east of the slopes of the Ural Mountains in central Russia. The continental divide is 30 kilometers west of the city. Yekaterinburg is Russia’s third or fourth largest city with a population of 1.5 million. It was founded in 1723 and is named for Peter the Great’s wife, Catherine I. Peter recognized the importance of Yekaterinburg and the surrounding region for the rapid industrial development necessary to bolster Russia’s military power.Today, Yekaterinburg is primarily known both as a center of heavy industry and steel-making, the Russian equivalent of Pittsburgh, and as a major freight transportation hub. Its major industries include ferrous and non-ferrous metallurgy, chemicals, timber, and pulp and paper. Yekaterinburg has long been an important trading center for goods coming from Siberia, Central Asia and Europe. The city also has a reputation as a center of higher education and research. The Urals Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences is located there with its 18 institutes and numerous research facilities linked to industry. Yekaterinburg is also well known as a center for the performing arts. Its Opera and Ballet Theater dates back to 1912. The Urals Philharmonic Orchestra is the largest symphony orchestra in central Russia. Yekaterinburg is the capital of Sverdlovsk Oblast (an oblast is the equivalent of a American state). Economically, Sverdlovsk is among 10 of the 89 administrative subdivisions of the Russian Federation that are net contributors to the federal budget. Sverdlovsk has produced many prominent political figures, including Russia’s first President, Boris Yeltsin, and Russia’s first elected Governor, Eduard Rossel. Since the establishment of the Russian Federation, Sverdlovsk Oblast has been one of the nation’s leaders in political and economic reform. In 1996, Sverdlovsk became the first oblast to conclude agreements with the Federal Government granting it greater political autonomy and the right to conduct its own foreign economic relations. Economic reform has gathered momentum in Sverdlovsk Oblast. The majority of Sverdlovsk’s industries have been privatized. 75% of enterprises are at least partially owned by private interests. About three-quarters of retail sales and industrial output is generated by private enterprise. Services have grown to 40 percent of oblast GDP, up from only 16 percent in 1992. About 25,000 small businesses are registered in the oblast. Small businesses make up about one-third of the construction, trade and food service. Industry and Natural Resources Sverdlovvsk Oblast, like most of the Urals region, possesses abundant natural resources. It is one of Russia’s leaders in mineral extraction. Sverdlovsk produces 70% of Russia’s bauxite, 60% of asbestos, 23% of iron, 97% of vanadium, 6% of copper and 2% of nickel. Forests cover 65% of the oblast. It also produces 6% of Russia’s timber and 7% of its plywood. Sverdlovsk has the largest GDP of any oblast in the Urals. The oblast’s major exports include steel (20% of its foreign trade turnover), chemicals (11%), copper (11%), aluminum (8%) and titanium (3%). In terms of industrial output, Sverdlovsk ranks second only to Moscow Oblast and produces 5% of Russia’s total. Ferrous metallurgy and machine-building still constitute a major part of the oblast’s economy. Yekaterinburg is well known for its concentration of industrial manufacturing plants. The city’s largest factories produce oil extraction equipment, tubes and pipes, steel rollers, steam turbines and manufacturing equipment for other factories. Non-ferrous metallurgy remains a growth sector. The Verkhnaya Salda Titanium Plant (VSMPO) is the largest titanium works in Russia and the second largest in the world. A second growth sector is food production and processing, with many firms purchasing foreign equipment to upgrade production. The financial crisis has increased demand for domestically produced foodstuffs, as consumers can no longer afford more expensive imported products. Many of Yekaterinburg’s leading food processors — including the Konfi Chocolate Factory, Myasomoltorg Ice-Cream Plant, Myasokombinat Meat Packing Plant and Patra Brewery — have remained financially stable and look forward to growth. Foreign Trade and Investment Sverdlovsk Oblast offers investors opportunities mainly in raw materials (metals and minerals) and heavy industries (oil extraction and pipeline equipment). There is also interest in importing Western products in the fields of telecommunications, food processing, safety and security systems, and medicine and construction materials. Both Sverdlovsk Oblast and Yekaterinburg city officials have encouraged foreign investment and created a receptive business climate. The oblast has a Foreign Investment Support Department and a website which profiles over 200 local companies. The city government opened its own investment support center in 1998 to assist foreign companies. Despite local efforts, foreign investors face the same problems in Yekaterinburg as they do elsewhere in Russia. Customs and tax issues top the list of problem areas. Sverdlovsk Oblast leads the Urals in attracting foreign investment The top five foreign investors are the U.S., UK, Germany, China and Cyprus. About 70 foreign firms have opened representative offices in Yekaterinburg, including DHL, Ford, IBM, Proctor and Gamble, and Siemens. Lufthansa airlines has opened a station in Yekaterinburg and offers three flights per week to Frankfurt. America is Sverdlovsk’s number one investor with $114 million in investment and 79 joint ventures. The three largest U.S. investors are Coca-Cola, Pepsi and USWest. Coca-Cola and Pepsi both opened bottling plants in Yekaterinburg in 1998. USWest has a joint venture, Uralwestcom, which is one of Yekaterinburg’s leading companies in cellular phone sales and service. America is Sverdlovsk Oblast’s number one trading partner. In 1998, Boeing signed a ten-year titanium supply contract valued at approximately $200 million with the VSMPO titanium plant. Besides the U.S., Sverdlovsk’s top trading partners include Holland, Kazakhstan, Germany and the UK. Yekaterinburg, like most of Russia, has a continental climate. The city is located at the source of the Iset River and is surrounded by lakes and hills. Temperatures tend to be mild in summer and severe in winter. The average temperature in January is -15.5C (4F), but occasionally reaches -40C (-40F). The average temperature in July is 17.5C (64F), but occasionally reaches 40C (104F).
