    Mr. Paul:   Is the only added support/enhancement to this script just the ability to add schedules to subscriptions?

    Yes. I may have also fixed a few minor typos.

    Mr. Paul:  I noticed that in some of the alerts when Get-HealthReport is added to the alert context in the email that the columns within the alert are not structured thus making it difficult to quickly determine what is health versus what is unhealthy, especially when on a mobile device. What are the chances that this script could be modified to create a table within the email that properly formats the table that is created within the alert context?

    Mr. Paul:   When some alert emails are generated, in the body of the email, there is a printout of the Get-HealthReport. However, it is very difficult to quickly identify, especially via mobile devices, what is healthy and what isn't. Is there anyway your script can be updated to properly format that output to make it a bit simpler to quickly review which items are health and which are not?

    Hi Curious1,   I'm not entirely sure to what you are referring. The Get-HealthReport cmdlet is available only in on-premises Exchange Server 2013.  I don't have Exchange set up in my lab so it's difficult to poke around.  Did you modify the script already to include the output of that cmdlet?  Or are you saying that the output of the cmdlet automatically exists in the alert context data and that it ends up being difficult to read in the context data area of the email?  Either way, the email is formatted with html. You can manipulate the structure of the email body any way you see fit. If you are asking me to do it... well... don't hold your breath. But feel free to experiment with this yourself.

    @Rick:  Yes. I've only tested it on SCOM 2012 and not 2007. Did you look at the Troubleshooting section of the original post?

    I found a few commands in it that my system did not understand and needed to change like get-alert needed to be get-scomalert.   Getting this now though Error Data: You cannot call a method on a null-valued expression.

    @Rick:  These commands on or around lines 456-457 should enable the use of legacy (SCOM 2007R2) commands: Add-PSSnapin Microsoft.EnterpriseManagement.OperationsManager.Client -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue -ErrorVariable Err New-PSDrive -Name:Monitoring -PSProvider:OperationsManagerMonitoring -Root: -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue -ErrorVariable Err | Out-Null However, feel free to change/update the commands as you see fit if that works for you. If you do everything according to the instructions on the original post page it should work without issues. "Should" work.

    Agree with you on removing a link advertising a product based on your's and Tao's solution. By the way, the link to the script is failing. The first part of the HTTP string shouldn't be there.
