I would like to know if the database gromming settings in the global settings
of mom 2005 administrator console affect the event logs or only the alerts.
Where can I configure the time I want to keep the windows events logs?
In MOM2000 you had this option in database grooming configuration for the
windows nt event logs.I think, may be I´m confused.
I have tried to configure groom data older than one day bat I still seeing
the event logs from long time ago.
Somebody can explain me this?
Thanks.

MOM doesnt groom the NT Event Log.
The Eventlog is one of the providers, an eventlog event becomes a MOM event
in the MOM environment, just like a script-generated event, or a line from a
monitored plain text logfile.
MOM grooms the MOM events, it doesnt edit the real event log!

Thanks for your response, and sorry for my English,
I don´t understand you very well, I have a event rule that gets all event
logs from one machine, and I would like to save this logs in MOM database
about 90 days.
Is that possible?

it isn't possible to save it on the operational database (OnePoint)
any event (as well performance counter and alert) that is inserted in MOM
Operational DB (Onepoint)
will be kept for max 60 days.

you could use Reporting and Datawarehouse to keep those events for longer
you need to install MOM Reporting and this is available only on MOM 2005
Full edition
(not on the Workgroup edition)
thanks
