You have a System Center Operations Manager 2007 environment. You create a monitor named Add Membership to monitor membership additions to the Domain Admins group.

Modify the Add Membership monitor to create an override for all objects of the Domain Controller type.
B.
Modify the Add Membership monitor to add a diagnostic task that runs a dsquery command.
C.
Create a scheduled report for the Add Membership monitor.

Tasks
As with views, there are tasks that are available when Operations Manager is installed, tasks that are imported along with management packs, and tasks that you can create on your own. Since there are so many tasks available from the default and imported management packs, you should verify whether a task that can perform the action you need already exists. Of course, there are those tasks that are part of sealed management packs that you do not have access to outside of the management pack. If this is the case, you may very well have to duplicate the functionality of the task.
Tasks come in two flavors: command-line tasks and scripts. Command-line tasks allow you to create a single command that is run on either the management server or the agent. Scripts can be written and then targeted to the management server or agent in order to run on them. With either of these approaches, the operator can select a system to target, and then run the task manually from the Operations Console. These manually run tasks enable the operators to run diagnostic tasks to help determine what is wrong, or run recovery tasks to help solve the problem causing the alert.
