Where can I find Log Analyzer logs on Orion server?

I'd like to find where i can see which rule is tagging messages as they come in to the Log Viewer console.  I have 800 different Rules, and a couple of them seem to be tagging Logs for incorrect vendors.  I'd like to check the rules that have tagged these messages, but i can't effectively go through 800 rules one at a time. I'm hoping there's some log messages on the system that would indicate which Rule was used to tag.

  • I am checking on this with the team. Not sure if there is any info in the logs or if we need some SQL / SWQL to solve this.

  • Is there a way to see the count of how many times a particular rule fired? that may help me whittle it down to the most likely offenders.

    Thanks!

  • Ticket seemed to have died last Friday, i've asked a few questions back to my support tech and i can't get a reply from them.

  • Well i was able to come up with an easy workaround that got me what i was after.  I cloned an already existing Log Alert, and changed the trigger condition to only a vendor that i knew wasn't a legit target but was still being tagged.

    and said include Processing Rule where "is not empty".

    In the trigger action, i put 3 variables, the Log Message, the Rule Name, and Rule Definition ID. 

    It didn't take long to trigger, and as soon as it did, i see in the alert message the name of the rule that triggered the alert.

    And sure enough, after going to that rule, i found that it did not have any conditions or limitations applied, corrected it, and haven't seen any improperly fire since.
