Hi,

I have one process running and writing to event log.

I'm working on second process and i want to write to event log from the second process.

Is there any way to know if the event log message received from the first process or from the second process?

- what is the best way to monitor more than one process (each process contains a few Runbooks and sub Runbboks) ? 

we have different people looking for log error. (process one is relevant to one group and process two is relevant to second group. we want one place to look in case we have problem with the first process and one place to look in case we have  problem with the second process).

Thanks,

Hi Gilad,

you can use "Trigger Policy" to trigger the second from the first Policy.

I think best thing to monitor is to use Operation Manager.

Best regards,

Stefan

Hi Stefan and thanks for your answer.

The two Policies are not connected. (two different process: one is "End of life" for server the second is create a new VM)

When i open the event log i can filter and see all message from Opalis application.

My question is : is there any way i can filter all message received from one process (maybe i can write all message to specific folder? or anything else.)

Did you try to create a custom view in the Event Viewer part of the server on which you create the events ?
It could work with Keyword, so one specific keyword for each process could may be do the job.

I created a custom view but failed to filter the message with keyword.

The keyword field is not editable (drop down list...).

Can you please provide more details about using the Keyword?

Thanks, gilad



Hello Gilad,

This is by design. In the Keywords drop-down list, select the check boxes next to the keywords that you want your filter to display.
