Description

The Set-SCOMAlert cmdlet changes the properties of one or more alerts. You can use the cmdlet to resolve an alert by setting the ResolutionState parameter to 255 (Closed).

Examples

Example 1: Close alerts by using the resolution state

PS C:\>Get-SCOMAlert -ResolutionState 15 | Set-SCOMAlert -ResolutionState 255

This command gets all alerts with a resolution state of 15 and then passes the alert objects to the Set-SCOMAlert cmdlet by using the pipe operator. The Set-SCOMAlert cmdlet closes the alert by setting the resolution state to 255.

Example 2: Change the properties of alerts

PS C:\>Get-SCOMAlert -Name "Failed Accessing Windows Event Log" | Set-SCOMAlert -Owner "CONTOSO\Isabel" -CustomField1 "Root Cause - Permissions"

This command gets all alerts named "Failed Accessing Windows Event Log" and then passes the alert objects to the Set-SCOMAlert cmdlet by using the pipe operator. The Set-SCOMAlert cmdlet changes the owner of the alert and sets the value for CustomField1.
