I ended up implementing the log parsing looking for event 203, scheduled task failed.  I definitely like the ideas posted here, if not for this case, then possibly for others.  I really appreciate the feedback.

Exactly what I was looking for.  Thanks!

Hmm, ok.  Completely forgot they added powershell for scheduled tasks.  I'm guessing I'd have to use netxms to call an external script then?  Or can the agent run native powershell?

Hey... having the strangest issue.

I created a template for the System.Uptime value from the netxms agent.  I created a threshold for this to create an alarm when this value went over 3456000 (40 days in seconds).  For testing I reduced the number to 864000.  The strange thing is, that instead of the alarm generating for each node, it generates a single alarm and increments the count... then just changes the source of the alarm a bunch of times.  Ideally I'd prefer if it generated a separate alarm for each node.  Am I doing something wrong here?

I've done both those things, but wanted to confirm on two items below.  How exactly does one deploy the file (I've looked for documentation... haven't seen much).  Also wanted to confirm about applying the policy to the nodes.  Again, the documentation talks about this, but doesn't show how to actually do it.  I may already be doing it... but not 100% sure. 
#6
so I would just need to add the file in the file manager?  Is there something I need to do to have the file deployed?  Sorry if I sound like a noob, I've only ever used the basic functionality of the product.

As an adendum, is there any way to apply a log parser config from the server, or will that need to be done on each server individually?

Hello all,

wanted to get some clarification on the Agent Configuration Manager.  If I specify an agent config with this tool, is it automatically applied to all agents that match the filter or is there some other thing I need to do?  Also, do I need to restart agents for this to take effect?  I read through the documentation, but it didn't go into much detail on this feature.

Thanks in advance.

Any thoughts?  Possibly looking at the event logs was my first thought, but wanted to see if anyone had a different idea.

Hey,

Wondering what would be the easiest way to monitor the status of a windows scheduled task. 

Thoughts?
