No, it is not derived from there, it is hosted by the Microsoft computer role.
I still lack a lot of the in-depth relational knowledge within SCOM.
I am using TypeID="Windows!Microsoft.Windows.CheckNTServiceStateMonitorType" to
target the service like this:
<Configuration>
<ComputerName>$Target/Host/Property[Type="Windows!Microsoft.Windows.Computer"]/NetworkName$</ComputerName>
<ServiceName>Spooler</ServiceName>
<CheckStartupType>true</CheckStartupType>
</Configuration>
I'm not sure where to begin on the Alert Parameter. How could I fill in the
<AlertParameter> for the service name? I know see the error of trying to use
Microsoft.SystemCenter.NTService, but I'm not sure how to go about targeting
the Alert Parameter at the service name. Any relevant links or examples? I have
tried looking online, but there isn't a lot of resources on the MP Authoring
side of SCOM.
Thanks,
Geoff

Hi!,
You are targeting Acme.Application.AppServerRole How are that class defined?
Is it derived from Microsoft.SystemCenter.NTService?
If not, the statement
$Target/Property[Type="Microsoft.SystemCenter.NTService"]/DisplayName$ has no
meaning at all.

Emne: [msmom] Alert Parameter Replacement: Service Name
All:
Goal: Get the Service Name passed as a parameter into the Alert Description. I
have the server name working, but whatever I try for the service name results
in blank output.
Issue:
I am authoring an unit monitor in Visual Studio using
"Windows!Microsoft.Windows.CheckNTServiceStateMonitorType"). The alert
parameter
"$Target/Property[Type="Microsoft.SystemCenter.NTService"]/DisplayName$"
results in a blank output in the Alert Description. I created a service monitor
in the SCOM console and exported that to XML in order to determine what Alert
Parameter is being used-and it's the one listed above. However, when I am
insert it into my MP, the Alert Parameter is blank in the Alert Description
when the alert is generated. Below is the relevant MP code (scrubbed).
