    Windows Event log filtering

    I'd like to have a few templates each querying a particular item from the windows event logs.

    I've set up a template with an item eventlog[Application,Backup Exec] and that seems to work and returns data on backup exec items.

    If I add another template with an entry eventlog[system,Windows Update Agent] then I get no data returned.

    Both have the types set to log and are active checks.

    Should this work?

    I think I've managed to answer this myself. It seems like the text isn't matched on the event source, just the main body text of the event. Also it seems that prior to 1.6 the agents just seem to 'stick' occasionally and stop transmitting log data.
