MOM not reading security logs
Hi all,
I need your kind help for sorting this issue.
Issue: I have configured event-566/Security in MOM and it is triggering the alert as expected but the object name is not in a readable format and it is substituting GUID by default.
IS it due to permission issue on security logs or even i configured different email format in MOM rule but i get the same. Kindly help me fixing the issue.
Severity: Critical Error
Status: New
Source: Security
Name: Directory Service Access
Description: Object Operation:
Object Server: DS
Operation Type: Object Access
Object Type:
%{bf967aba-0de6-11d0-a285-00aa003049e2}
Object Name:
%{33261aac-de9a-4f57-ba7e-4bd9c86def97}
The above object name should be
Object Type: user
Object Name: CN=Aqeel Khalil
Al Zarouni,OU=Staff Accounts,OU=Users,OU=du-Corp,DC=corp,DC=du,DC=ae

MOM? Really? MOM?
I think you are getting what you can get. The formatting of this data is not pre-made in the events in the security log. Processing each one requires an AD lookup for each GUID involved.
You could _try_ granting elevated read permissions to your AD to see if these improve magically - but you may be at your limit.Microsoft Corporation
