Hi, Alert Description can not be changed without changing and resealing original MP..but it wont be the same MP and you wont be able to update it later...you could only change Company Knowledge http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/operationsmanagergeneral/thread/aae19511-c886-4d00-8e6f-015707b177f8 http://2012scom.blogspot.ru/2012/07/having-trouble-attempting-to-edit.html

Hello, So the alert: Alert: ConfigMgr 2007 service running: SMS_EXECUTIVE Resolution state: New Source: ConfigMgr Server - CONFIGMGRDTS Path: CONFIGMGRDTS.AD Last modified by: System Last modified time: 1/17/2013 12:00:36 PM Alert description: configmgrdts - ConfigMgr 2007 service running: SMS_EXECUTIVE. is really incomplete.. is it running, is iot stopped, is it hanging we don't know, is it possible to replace this alert by a custom alert more friendly.

Hi, you could override this monitor (enabled: false) then create your own monitor with the same target as overridden one, and you will have posibility to indicate the alert description as you need. the easiest way to create such monitor is to use predefined template Windows Service or use VSAE and additional inf. : http://blogs.technet.com/b/kevinholman/archive/2010/11/07/monitoring-windows-services-automatic-manual-and-disabled-using-checkstartuptype.aspx
