vROPS 6.1 using outbound Log file plugin

Greetings everyone,

I'm trying to use the Log file plugin to export my alarms to a text file. But there is a problem, it seems it doesn't export all the alarms presented in the vROPS UI. Formerly I blamed the wrong configuration of the TextFilter. Xml but, but I tried more than 10 different configuration, formats but it seems it had no effect at all.

Did anyone use it? Made it work? Or even have some information regarding the correct format of the TextFilter xml because the documentation very unclear.

Thanks in advance,

Yev Berman.

How many Analytics nodes do you have? Alerts can generate on any of the Analytics nodes, so it in plausible the alerts are getting written to log files on each of the nodes. You'd need to merge the files from all the nodes to get an accurate representation of the alert activity.
