It's a fundamentally sound idea to present server backup status in the same "pane of glass" context as other server health metrics.

The Backup Exec management pack increases the value of Backup Exec for customers that use Microsoft System Center products for systems management. If you have deployed SCOM, and you are primarily needing a simple up-down check on your Backup Exec jobs and central collection of alerts relating to backup, the new Backup Exec management pack fills this key role very well and at a great price-free! What the management pack looks like
BACKUP EXEC LATEST VERSION LICENSE
However it's costly, adding over a thousand dollars license cost per backup server. If you need to copy lots of backup job details between servers, or enforce complex backup policies across backup media server farms, this can be a great option.
BACKUP EXEC LATEST VERSION SOFTWARE
Symantec has a software option for a Central Administration Server that consolidates backup job management across Backup Exec servers. However once you scale out with some or many other Backup Exec servers to monitor, the enterprise backup picture can get progressively more difficult to manage. For small operations with just one Backup Exec server, it's not too difficult to configure the software to email or otherwise alert administrators to backup failures. Many shops trust the Disaster Recovery (DR) readiness of their whole business - SQL, Exchange, Active Directory, SharePoint, Shared File data, and more - to Backup Exec. Symantec is a major player in the backup software space, holding an estimated 60% market share. While a community-converted and manually modified version of the old management pack could run poorly in SCOM 2007, most organizations have had to forego integration of Backup Exec into their SCOM 2007 monitoring infrastructure until now. That older management pack was actually written for Operations Manager 2007's predecessor Microsoft Operations Manager 2005 (MOM). The last time Symantec released a management pack for Backup Exec, it was for the Backup Exec 12.5 release in 2008. In a long overdue and welcome move, Symantec released this summer a Backup Exec 2010 management pack for Microsoft System Center Operations Manager 2007 (SCOM).
