Filters on CheckEventLog

Hello!

I want an alarm for the errors in the system EventLog? except those of W32Time; So I tried (and with many combinaisons of filters in out and so on):

CheckEventLog file=system MaxWarn=1 MaxCrit=1 filter+eventType==error filter-eventSource==W32Time

And whith filter-eventSource=!W32Time, I have the same result...

So, I think that I have misunderstood something in the filters!

Thanks for your help

    Use single = CheckEventLog file=system MaxWarn=1 MaxCrit=1 filter+eventType=error filter-eventSource=W32Time

    I has something alike: CheckEventLog file=system MaxWarn=1 MaxCrit=1 filter+eventType=error filter-eventSource=substr:W32Time

      Thanks for your help, anonymous...

      eventType needs '=='

      But your 'filter-eventSource=substr:W32Time' works fine

      So, I use the following request:

      CheckEventLog file=system filter=new MaxWarn=1 MaxCrit=1 filter+eventType==error filter-eventSource=substr:W32Time unique

      Have a good day!
