[Zenoss-dev] Re: Issues with 2.1.70

[Erik A. Dahl]

That's very strange the code to select the events hasn't changed in a  
long time... Here is the query:

        wql = """SELECT * FROM __InstanceCreationEvent where """\
                """TargetInstance ISA 'Win32_NTLogEvent' """\
                """and TargetInstance.EventType <= %d"""\
              % minSeverity


Can you try running the query and see what you get:

wmic -U administrator%PW //HOST "select eventtype from  
Win32_NTLogEvent where EventType <= 2"

Its the same where clause that we use to get events.  Maybe the  
problem is elsewhere... although its not jumping out for me.
