View Settings

Maximum number of Events

Specifies the maximum number of rows displayed in the Event View. You may select any value from 1 through 50000. The larger the number, the more memory the mmc.exe process will consume and the longer the query will take to return results.

Date Range

The From Date and To Date fields specify a date range. By default the To Date range is Now . New events that meet the filter criteria can be added dynamically to this view as they are received. You may select one of the pre-selected choices from the drop-down, or enter your own date range.

Filters

Events matching the combination of Include and Exclude Filters will start the Correlation View timer.  If subsequent events matching the combination of Filters are processed, then the Correlation View timer will be re-started.

Properties - Select the Correlation Filter and click Properties to edit or view the properties of an Correlation Filter.

If an Event matches any of the Correlation Filters within the time period, assigned Matching Notification Methods will be triggered, and the View itself will generate event 5708.  If no Event is found within the time period, the assigned Timeout Notification Methods will be triggered, and the View itself will generate  event 5707.

Notification Methods

Notifications can be triggered if correlating End events are found, or if they are not found, within the configured time period.  The time period begins when an event matches the combination of Include and Exclude Filters assigned to the View.

Matching

The assigned Notification Methods are triggered if a correlating End event is found within the time period configured on the Filters End tab.
