Syslog alert help

I created a syslog rule and for the most part it seems to be working except for the "Time of Day" tab. We only want the rule to be checked between 10:35 PM and 11:00 PM. I have this set on the "Time of Day" tab but the alerts seem to be starting at 10:00 PM. Can I not start the check at 10:35 for some reason?

While I was writing this I also noticed another alert that isn't working correctly. I have one set up for any errors between the hours of 8:00 AM and 6:00 PM. An error came through at 8:36 but it did not send an alert. The message time and the server time match so where does the Syslog rule get it's time from?

Hello,

it should works as you expect. Which version of Orion do you have? I verified this behavior on 9.5 SP4.

Time from rule is compared against time on the computer where SolarWinds Syslog Service is running.

We're running 9.1 SP5. Was this a bug in version 9.1 that is fixed in 9.5?

I talked with Ondrej, and it looks like there might be an issue with your configuration. We think opening a Support ticket would be the next move. Please reference this thread in your ticket.
