I've tried very simple script to filter alarm in alarm view an it doesnt work:

It should show alarms that have letter "a" somwhere in alarm text field, but it shows none.

If I use Alarm view filter buttton and make filter with following:

Criterion: Alarm text

Operand:contains

Setting : a

it works perfectly.

Doesnt  sql query ... LIKE '*a*' ...  should do same thing?

[snip]

I've found answer for first part, I should use % (like in "real" sql query) and not * as in older wincc versions). [snip]

New question published by s.dbr is split to a separate thread with the subject How to get syntax (string) of already applied MsgFilterSql filter?.
