Searching

It is sometimes difficult to know whether a filter for a particular event already exists, or to find out which group a computer belongs to.

The Find Dialog allows you to search for filters and computer in an easy way. You can reach the find dialog in three ways:

Once the Find dialog has been displayed either select the Filter or Computer tab.

Filters

Select this tab to look for filters with certain properties, for example you can display all filters with the event source set to "NETLOGON". You can also display all filters assigned to a particular computer or group. See Searching for Filters for more information.

Computer

Select this tab to locate a computer in your configured groups. Simply enter the computer name in the Computer field and click Find. The computer will be selected in the tree if it exists.
