After the detection of an event, event monitoring immediately resumes without any intervals between monitoring jobs.

Windows User Name

Specify the Window user name to be monitored. If you do not specify this setting, all events are detected, regardless of who is triggering those events.

If a user belonging to a domain is to be monitored, specify NetBIOS-domain-name\user-name. If you omit the NetBIOS domain name, the item assumes that the local host name is set as the domain name.

If a Windows event is triggered by a user other than the specified user, monitoring continues without the event being detected.

The monitor does not distinguish between upper and lower case letters in the specified Windows user names.

You can only use this item while the COM+ Event System service, the COM+ System Application service, and System Event Notification Service service are up and running. For details, see 2.3.5 Using the Windows event monitor function.

Note that, if you stop the above services while this item is being executed, events can no longer be detected, although event monitoring continues. In this state, events cannot be detected even when the services are restarted. You have to re-execute the item.
