Hey All,

I'm trying to monitor a service with bbwin, and it appears not to like ampersand (&) in the service name. Is there way to enumerate "Backup Exec Device & Media Service" in the xml file so that it will work?

Have you tried using \ as an escape key?

If it's standard XML you should be able to use "Backup Exec Device &amp;
Media Service"

 
I haven't tried this myself though....

That was exactly the fix.
