Posted August 20, 200816 yr I have a customer (running Windows 2003 SP2) that is attempting to enable email alerts with Double-Take, and the following event is generated by WinMgmt when doing so: Event Type: Error Event Source: WinMgmt Event ID: 10 Description: Event filter with query "SELECT * FROM __InstanceCreationEvent WHERE TargetInstance ISA 'Win32_NTLogEvent' AND (TargetInstance.SourceName = 'Double-Take' OR TargetInstance.SourceName = 'dblhook' OR TargetInstance.SourceName = 'NSIPH' OR TargetInstance.SourceName = 'ExchFailover') AND (TargetInstance.EventType = '1' OR TargetInstance.EventType = '2')" could not be (re)activated in namespace "//./root/CIMV2" because of error 0x80042002. Events may not be delivered through this filter until the problem is corrected. This is occurring on only three of their servers, and we have never had this issue reported by other customers (thousands of licenses deployed). The error code is WBEMESS_E_REGISTRATION_TOO_PRECISE, which means, "A WITHIN clause was not used in this query." I'm prone to disbelieve this is accurate, as that is the same query that gets activated successfully on other servers. Please let me know if you have any ideas about what could be causing this. We have tested WMI functionality in general and it is working fine except for this.
