.Net MOM plugin

[=?Utf-8?B?TWFyaw==?=]

Hi...

Apologies in advance if this isn't the right place for this question, but I
didn't see another group that seemed more appropriate.

One of my co-workers is trying to write a C# plugin for a MOM management
server and we're having some difficulty getting it to work. When he wrote
the plugin, he wrote a little winforms app harness to test it, and we can see
the results when the plugin is run this way.

The problem is getting the thing to run in MOM. He's added the plugin to a
rule and scheduled the rule to run every 15 seconds. The rule is associated
with a computer group. But the plugin isn't running (every 15 seconds or
otherwise).

He added logging to the event log to see if it was being run and like
before, the event log messages show up when run from the harness but not from
MOM.

It's probably an issue of not understanding how to get the thing hooked into
MOM correctly.

Anyone have any pointers on that subject?

Thanks
Mark

Hi Mark,

As for MOM, I'm not sure what's the plugin or add-in model of it. As far as
I know, for add-in or plugin debugging, you can consider use Visual Studio
to attach the running process and break into your plugin code to see
whether those main events or functions are correctly called. If the problem
is occuring at configuration or plugin registering process, I'm afraid it
is quite hard to locate the cause from .net code logic.

BTW, here are the online community and newsgroups for MOM and I suggest you
post there for further information:
