  • Question

  • Hello,

    I have a requirement to monitor the Log file where the extension of the log file changes every day. I want to monitor this using MOM and SCOM as well. Can you please help me on this.

  • Hi.  If using SCOM and the log file template, you can give it a wildcard for filename, so it should be able to pick up new ones everyday.
