Pardon my ignorance, but if '$alert.update' is the only option, I can't call 
that method along with the resolution state to achieve my goal, can I? With 
that being the only way to update the history, I would have to just settle for 
two entries in the Alert history, right?

Thanks,
Geoff

Hi!,

I 'll advise you to do a bit more testing.  The only statement that updates the 
history, is the $alert.update("text") . Infact, if you omit the text (like 
$alert.update("") ) you won't get any history entry at all.

Emne: [msmom] Upate Resolution State with Comment History

Is there a way to update the resolution state of an alert and add a comment 
without creating two separate entries in the Alert History?

I setup a test alert and want to modify the Resolution State ID to a custom ID 
of '2'. Using this (there is only one alert), I semi-achieve what I want:

$Alert = Get-SCOMAlert -ResolutionState 0 -Severity 2 -Name "Geoff_Test*"
$Alert.ResolutionState = 2
$Alert.Update("Testing comment function")


If there are multiple alerts, I can pass them through a foreach loop:

$Alerts = Get-SCOMAlert -ResolutionState 0 -Severity 2 -Name "Geoff_Test*"
foreach ($Alert in $Alerts)
{
$Alert.ResolutionState = 2
$Alert.Update("Testing comment function")
}

I understand my code is two steps, so it creates two entries in the alert 
history: a generic "Alert modified by user" when the Resolution State changes 
and a second entry with the 'Testing comment function' text. My goal is to have 
the resolution state change with the comment I'm defining. I've tried a few 
different ways of wrapping the commands without luck. Is anyone currently doing 
this?

Thanks.
