Display which management pack caused alert
Is there a way we could display which management pack cause the alert when sending out an alert. We would like to include this on he emails going out for the alert
It depends how you are sending out alerts. If you are using the built-in email field, then no. If you are using a command channel, then yes, easy.
Have a look at the example email notification here: https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/tysonpaul/2014/08/04/scom-enhanced-email-notification-script-version-2-1/
Hey
Quick thought suggests you can update one of the custom fields of the alerts using a Powershell script and then include that field in the notifications. You can use the command notification channel to update the field automatically, but it MIGHT delay the notifications a little bit and/or work intermittently – worth a try though.
Hope that helps.
Cheers
We use Orchestrator for Alert Notifications, gives you way more flexibility in what goes out and who it goes to.
