Get related Distibuted Application using Powershell from an Alert

Question

Hi,
I'm wondering if there is a way to get the name of a Distributed Application from an alert.
Ie Alert for a website comes into SCOM. This alert is from an object in a Distributed Application. I'd like to get that name.
I'm close, I can get the related top level object (which gives me the System.Health.EntityState Monitor)
There has to be a way of doing this, either by Powershell or SQL
My Code:
$ClassID= get-scomalert -id  <alertid> | foreach {$_.MonitoringClassId}
$name = get-scomalert -id <alertid>| foreach {$_.MonitoringObjectDisplayName}
$info= get-scomclass -id $ClassID | Get-SCOMClassInstance |where {$_.DisplayName -like $name} | %{$_.GetRelatedMonitoringObjects()}
$object=$info.GetStateHierarchy().item
Any Ideas?
Thanks
Jason

Hi, as example you can check the presence of this alert in each DA and identify where it exists
$AlertID="GUID"
$DAs=Get-SCOMClass -Name System.Service | Get-SCOMClassInstance
Foreach ($DA in $DAs)
if ($DA.GetMonitoringAlerts("ResolutionState = 0","Recursive",0).id -contains $AlertID) {write-host $DA.Displayname}
