We have an application that typically posts an entry into the Windows log every few minutes if things are going well.
What I want to know is if there is a way to send an alert if the log entry isn't received in the past 15 minutes.
I suspect that I would do this with the Syslog Viewer and alerter.
Under the trigger threshold, I see that I can suppress alerts until a certain number are received within a specified time frame. I guess what I want is the reverse. I want the alert triggered if it doesn't receive x number of alerts in the specified time frame.
Any thoughts?
