Scripting Series (Part 1): Updating MOM 2005 Runtime Scripts for OpsMgr and SCE

 

In the move from MOM 2005 to Operations Manager 2007 and Essentials 2007, I know there is some frustration in the fact that the runtime scripting API had to change. I thought some guidance on converting existing MOM 2005 scripts and creating new ones would be welcome.

So over the next few weeks with a series of scripting articles designed for MOM 2005 folks and folks not to familiar with VBScript, we will tackle Operations Manager scripting in small chunks, providing a new walkthrough every few days. Each successive article will build on our work from the previous in some way. In Part 1, we tackle a simple MOM 2005 Script Conversion and look at the MOMScriptAPI.LogScriptEvent method in an end-to-end walkthrough from concept to implementation.

All samples are Operations Manager 2007 / Essentials 2007 friendly, with versions for both RTM and SP1 included in the management pack download.

    I used a script with the MOMScriptAPI.LogScriptEvent method and an alert rule, after that i saw a alert in the console. Now i want to display this alert to special group view, but because of the MOmscriptapi the source computer is Mom Management, and i just want to show this group this alert and not all the alerts of the management server. Do you have solution for my problem
    Thanks in advance
