Where tab

The Where tab allows you to specify which agents to include (or exclude) in the search definition. You can select individual agents, all agents in a specific domain, or a given site. When multiple ‘where’ criteria is added to this tab, Change Auditor uses the ‘OR’ operator to evaluate change events, returning events captured by any of the specified agents, domains, or sites.

The Where tab contains the following information and controls:

Field and Control
Description

Runtime Prompt

Select this check box to prompt for the ‘where’ criteria whenever the search is run. That is, when Run is selected, the Select Active Directory Objects dialog is displayed allowing you to locate and select the agents, domains, or sites to include in the search definition.

NOTE: When this check box is checked, Add is deactivated.
NOTE: You cannot enable alerting for search definitions that use the Runtime Prompt option.

Exclude the Following Selection(s)

Select this check box to specify the agents, domains, or sites to exclude from the search. That is, Change Auditor is to return events generated from all agents except those listed in the Where list.

Where list

By default, all agents are included in a new search and therefore this list box is initially empty.

Once criteria is selected, this list box contains the agents, domains, sites, and server type (if specified) to include in the search (or exclude from the search if the Exclude the Following Selection(s) option is checked).

To search for events captured by a specific agent, domain or site:
* 
NOTE: By default, all agents are included in a new search, therefore the list box on the Where tab is empty.
1
Open the Where tab and click Add.
2
Use the Browse or Search pages to locate and select an individual agent, a domain, or a site.
If required, use the Forest drop-down box to select in which forest the objects reside. Foreign agent forests may require foreign forests credentials which can be entered on the Credentials Required dialog.
* 
NOTE: You can also select the Grid View option to select an agent from a list rather than using the Explorer View to locate it within your environment.
 
3
Click Add to add your selection to the selection list box at the bottom of the page.
* 
NOTE: You can use Add With Events (instead of Add) to select an agent, domain, or site which already has an event associated with it in the database.
4
Once you have selected the agents, domains and sites to include in the search, click OK.
The agents, domains and sites listed on the Where tab now defines where the search will be conducted when this search is run.
To use a wildcard expression to specify a domain, site or agent:
1
On the Where tab, expand Add and select Add Wildcard Expression.
2
Enter the wildcard expression to use to search for an agent (NetBIOS name), domain, or site:
•
Select the comparison operator to use: Like or Not Like.
•
In the field to the right, enter the pattern (character string and * wildcard character) to be used to search for a match. Use the * wildcard character to match any string of zero or more characters.
For example, LIKE *local finds all agents with a NetBIOS name that ends in ‘local’.
•
By default, the wildcard expression is used to search for an agent. To search for a domain or site, select the Domain or Site option.
3
After entering the wildcard expression to use, click OK to close the dialog and add the wildcard expression to the ‘where’ list.
4
When this search runs, Change Auditor searches for change events generated on the domains, sites, or agents whose name matches the specified wildcard expression.
To filter based on server type:
1
On the Where tab, expand Add and select Add Server Types.
2
Select to include Domain Controllers, Member Servers, Workstation Servers, Exchange Servers as required.
3
Click OK to close the dialog and add the server type to the ‘Where’ list.
When this search runs, Change Auditor searches for events generated on the specified domains, sites, or agents for the specified server type.

When tab

The When tab allows you to limit the returned results of the search by date and time. By default, a new search is set to include the change events captured this week. The When tab contains the following information and controls:
