Property Value
Type: Microsoft.WindowsAzure.Diagnostics.WindowsEventLogsBufferConfigurationReturns WindowsEventLogsBufferConfiguration.The WindowsEventLog property is used to specify the WindowsEventLogsBufferConfiguration data buffer that is used for logging Windows events. This property enables you to add event log sources to the DataSources collection for each event type you want to capture. You can also specify the ScheduledTransferLogLevelFilterLogLevel enumeration for setting the severity level of each log to transfer to persistent storage, and the default data buffer properties: DiagnosticDataBufferConfiguration and ScheduledTransferPeriod.
Example
The following code snippet creates a new diagnostic monitor configuration, specifies the configuration for Windows events, then starts the diagnostic monitor using the new configuration.
public override bool OnStart()
{
// Get the default initial configuration for DiagnosticMonitor.
DiagnosticMonitorConfiguration diagnosticConfiguration = DiagnosticMonitor.GetDefaultInitialConfiguration();
// Add Application logs to the configuration.
diagnosticConfiguration.WindowsEventLog.DataSources.Add("Application!*");
// Filter the logs so that only error-level logs are transferred to persistent storage.
diagnosticConfiguration.WindowsEventLog.ScheduledTransferLogLevelFilter = LogLevel.Error;
// Schedule a transfer period of 30 minutes.
diagnosticConfiguration.WindowsEventLog.ScheduledTransferPeriod = TimeSpan.FromMinutes(30.0);
// Start the DiagnosticMonitor using the diagnosticConfig and our connection string.
DiagnosticMonitor.Start("Microsoft.WindowsAzure.Plugins.Diagnostics.ConnectionString", diagnosticConfiguration);
return base.OnStart();
