Events Log Data Source Critical Errors
In scom 2007 R2, I am getting one particular critical error on some of my servers which is causing their status to be critical error. Its in the local application health rollup, then in the health service availability and then in the Event Log Data Source Module, and the alert event is Processing Background Events taking a long time. Is there any reason why we get this alert. I can disable it as I cannot see any issues on the server but i want to check if this could be due to any underlying reason. Any advise

Download the latest OM management pack update. Some additional knowledge has been added to internal management events like this. When your agent is not able to keep up with the collection and writing data to the database or warehouse, it can become backed up. This will cause the background processing to take a long time. Generally, look to see if you are using the data being collected, then create overrides to disable the collection of event data for events you don't use for something. If you are just collecting events because you like collecting them, you need to apply some moderation because on the servers that you are seeing this on, the agent is not able to keep up with the flood.Microsoft Corporation
