SAM - Suppress alert by searching past syslog messages for matching term

Howdy.

Right now I have an application monitor setup to monitor the global status of Dell Openmanage Server Administrator on about 150 servers. However, when the PERC controllers do a battery test, the application throws a false positive for an error. What I would like to do is set a suppression scenario where if the Openmanage Global Status goes to warning, search the past 24 hours of syslogs from that device to see if it has started a battery learn cycle.

This isn't currently possible today in SAM. This may however may be possible using our Log & Event Manager.

It's a little bit of a stretch, but since the syslog table is right there in the database you could reach over into it to do that kind of validation if you used an Custom SQL alert to do what you're talking about. What's your level of comfort with SQL and what is the pattern in the syslog message that you're expecting to see?
