With the beginning of a new month, I've posted another round of "official" (aka marketing) announcements to the Management Updates blog. Here's a quick overview of some of the new stuff that hasn't previously appeared here:

• MOM 2005 Exchange Server Management Pack Guide - how to manage Exchange in the enterprise.
• SMS 2003 Solution Accelerator for Patch Management - best practices and sample scripts.
• The Infrastructure Engineering chapter of the Microsoft Operations Framework (MOF) - if you're running a Microsoft shop, MOF gives you the "big picture" of all best practices.

Oh, and the full list of MOM 2005 management packs currently stands at 114, including 63 from 3rd-party providers!
