New help with setting up alerts containing VBScript

sstump2

Hi All,

I am completely new to Solarwinds and would like some help on setting up alerts containing Vb Script. I have been tasked with adding an alert that goes out and reads a .txt file and if it finds the wording "problem connection" in the text, i need the script to list the string that the text is found in and; if found return the line that the text is in and change the server to status to "down" and send an alert. If no "Problem Connection" text is found just end program and maintain server status as "UP". Can I please get some help or feedback on setting up this alert up on my solarwinds.

Thanks in advance

Scott
