Introduction

This Tool will assist you in gathering ETL Traces. You have the options of selecting specific Tracing to gather with this script.

The script will perform the following, in this order:

1. Stops any existing ETL Traces
   • Optional: Stops the SCOM Services
2. Starts the ETL Trace
   • Optional: Starts the SCOM Services back up
3. Script will wait for issue to occur
   • Default: Pauses Script, waits until you press Enter
   • Optional: Sleeps for x Seconds (-SleepSeconds 10)
   • Optional: Script will loop until an Event ID is detected (-DetectOpsMgrEventID)
   • Optional: Script can sleep for any amount of seconds after an Event is detected. (-SleepAfterEventDetection)
4. Stops ETL Trace
5. Optional: Script can attempt to Format the ETL Trace (-FormatTrace)
6. Zips Up Output and Opens Explorer Window for Viewing File
