Monitors Domain Controller Security Event logs for locked out domain accounts and/or monitors stand-alone server Security Event logs for local, non-domain, locked out accounts. |
| Active Directory Monitor | Scan Active Directory on a scheduled interval (e.g. Every 15 Minutes) for locked out domain accounts. |

How to scan Active Directory for locked out domain accounts:
Server Manager includes a sample template that scans Active Directory for locked out accounts.
- From the Explorer View, navigate to Templates | Sample Templates | Account Lockout Monitors then right click on Domain Account Lockout Monitor and select Template Properties. The Account Lockout Monitor Template Properties view displays.
- The Template Properties view contains 4 tabs.
The Options Tab
- Select the Monitor Active Directory option to monitor Active Directory only.
- Use the Directory Service drop-down to select the domain to monitor.
Host Assignment
- Assign the template to either of one your domain controllers or the localhost.
Important
Assigning this template to multiple hosts will result in duplicate Active Directory scans and duplicate triggers.
How to scan stand-alone servers for local, non-domain, locked out accounts with WMI:
- From the Explorer View, navigate to Templates | Sample Templates | Account Lockout Monitors then right click on Server Account Lockout Monitor and select Template Properties. The Account Lockout Monitor Template Properties view displays.
- The Template Properties view contains 4 tabs.
- General
- Options
- User Filters
- Actions
The Options Tab
- Select the Monitor assigned machines option to monitor servers and workstations for local accounts that have been locked out.
Host Assignment
- Assign each server and workstation you want to monitor local accounts on.
Important
Assigning this template to a domain controller only results in local account triggers. Domain accounts will not be included in the triggers.
