Critical Events monitoring configuration

Acronis Drive Monitor allows you to specify which events from Windows event logs will be
considered as critical for hard disks; and then the program will inform you only about such events in
the Critical events page. You can change Windows Event Log monitoring configuration file for
System and Application Windows logs.
To configure them you need to change a XML file (winlog_filter.xml) (Exclude and Include parts of the
file have the same format, so you can specify them in the same file), which is located in
C:\ProgramData\Acronis\Drive Monitor (for Windows Vista/Windows 7) or C:\Documents and
Settings\All Users\Application Data\Acronis\Drive Monitor\ (for other Windows operating
systems).
For example, if you want to add monitoring of event 51 from source Disk1 and to mark is as High risk,
add the following line to "High risk" section:
<parameter source_name="Disk1" event_code="51" />
Argument values:
SourceName | Category | Type | EventCode | Message
Operation values:
contain | equal | more | less
Below is an example of a file with configuration for logs:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<filter_root>
<!-- String parameters: -->
<!-- argument = source_name|message -->
<!-- operation = contain|equal -->
<!-- Integer parameters: -->
<!-- argument = category|type|event_code -->
<!-- operation = equal|more|less -->
