Hi,

I have simple PowerShell query:

Get-EventLog -ComputerName $server -LogName System -EntryType Warning -After (Get-Date).Adddays(-1) | where {$_.eventID -eq 108}  | select TimeGenerated, Message 

It displays the results but it takes some time to finish the query after results are already displayed. If I run it for remote computer it takes ages while script finishes after results are displayed. What could be wrong?

Thanks

Hi,

Look at Get-WinEvent instead if you want a speed increase:

So your line would translate to this:

Get-WinEvent -computername $server -FilterHashtable @{logname='system';id=108;StartTime="8/31/15";EndTime="9/2/15"} |ft timecreated, message -autosize -wrap
