An alert that is generated by using managed code displays the property text name instead of the event information in Microsoft Operations Manager 2005

On This Page

SYMPTOMS

An alert that is generated by using managed code might display the Microsoft Operations Manager (MOM) 2005 property text name instead of the identifying details from the event. For example, the alert that is generated by using managed code might display "$Source Name$" instead of the identifying details from the event.

CAUSE

This problem occurs because the property resource name is not translated to its corresponding ID when the response query is inserted in the MOM database. The managed code response user interface lets you specify the parameters that are passed to the managed code method. When you specify a MOM property, the MOM property text name is stored in the MOM database. Therefore, the property that the managed code response receives contains the text of the MOM property instead of the corresponding data.

WORKAROUND

To work around this problem, you must use the property ID when you create a managed code response. For example, use $05$ instead of $Source Name$ in your managed code response.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed in the "Applies to" section.
