I would like to create an alarm for all events except for certain event with ID 'xxxx'.
Solution:
Open notepad and save an empty text file as 'EventLogExcludeList.txt' under the "..\SQLDBManagerPlus\working\conf" directory. This file can be used to specify Event Log Exclusions :
1) The format for the Exclusion for the events is as follows:
EventId | Source | Category | User | EventType | Descripion
2) The file should be present in the directory <SQLDBManagerPlus-Home>\working\conf\EventLogExcludeList.txt
3) An example for the entries in EventLogExcludeList.txt will be as follows:('#' at the beginning of the line means the line is commented)
#EventId | Source | Category | User | EventType | Descripion
100|*|*|*|*|*|*|*|*|*|*
3|*|*|*|*|*
*|kerberos|*|*|*|*
You can enter the event id and by using * it excludes what ever that comes in the respective fields like | Source | Category | User | EventType | Descripion etc
4) More rules can be specified in next line as shown in the example.
5) Save the file and restart SQLDBManagerPlus.
