In MOM 2005 we could add advanced criterias\u00c2\u00a0and\u00c2\u00a0for example check if a event description\u00c2\u00a0included a special word, “matches wildcard”. In this post I will show you how to get the same feature in Ops Mgr 2007. I want an alert when a event with “unsucessfully” is written in the local event log.<\/p>\n

I have create a simple vbscript that writes two events to a local event log. The event ID and source are the same, and the description is almost the same, but one event includes “unsuccessfully” and the other one includes “sucessfully”. Now I want to get an alert only when events with\u00c2\u00a0“unsuccessfully” a written in the local event viewer.<\/p>\n
