Alternatively, see the guide Advanced FTP/SFTP scripting for examples of checking script results (including XML log parsing) using more powerful languages and the guide to Interpreting XML log for advanced scripting using C# language. If you require checking results of each command individually, you should better use the WinSCP. ini=nul /log=example.log /script=example.txtĪ similar error handling is used in the batch file template that WinSCP can generate for you. You should also make the batch file indicate a result in its exit code, particularly if it is called from some parent system (for example SSIS). Once you find out what was the result of the script, you can perform any action you like: print a message, send an email, etc. Save and inspect output of the script.
Automate file monitor code#

See Conditional processing in automation for a more complex example and Advanced FTP/SFTP scripting for examples of script generation using more powerful languages. See more hints on using parametrized batch file. Now you can run the batch file like (supposing you have saved it to file upload.bat): Rem Delete the temporary script del script.tmp This ensures that if you make any mistakes you can come back to a fully functioning monitor. Now, if you want to modify a pre-existing monitor, it’s helpful to make a copy first before you change any settings. Rem Execute the script /ini=nul /script=script.tmp That's one thing you want to keep in mind with regards to internal monitoring-you want to make sure your tracking fresh data. Rem Generate a temporary script to upload %1 ( echo open mysession
Automate file monitor windows#
For complex tasks, you will need to use some scripting language, such JScript or VBScript from Windows script host or PHP or Perl.įollowing example shows batch file that takes filename on command line and generates WinSCP script file to upload that file to remote server: For simple tasks you can use built-in Windows scripting functionality from batch file (. To automate that, make a wrapper script file. You can also use environment variables in the script.Īlternatively, you can generate new script file each time. ini=nul /script=script.tmp /parameter // c:\myfile.txt NET assembly.įor simple modifications, you can pass the variable parts of the script from command line: For example you may want to operate it with different file each time.įor tasks involving more complex modifications, conditional processing, loops or other control structures, you should better use the WinSCP. The Internal Monitor name will be "CWAutomate Agent Licenses Available".You may want to modify the script automatically.

Install Instructions: Unzip the attached file, and import into Control Center using "Tools -> Import -> SQL File".
Automate file monitor update#
To change the fallback computer ID, edit the Additional Condition and update "IFNULL(MAX(computerid),1)", replacing "1" with whatever computer you want to generate the alert against. If you don't have THAT agent the monitor won't work. If you don't have an agent on your Automate Server, the monitor falls back to Computer ID 1. NOTE: The monitor is designed to alert against the Automate Server (where the "LTAgent" service is Running). I would suggest this be changed to an alert template that generates an email so that the notice can be sent directly to the person who manages agent licenses. The Alert Template should default to the stock "Create Ticket" alert. Set to "Send Fail After Success" if you do not want any repeat notifications for the same "incident". So after 1 week another alert would generate even if the available count did not change. The Duplicate Alert Frequency is set to Once per 7 days. If you do not want new alerts as the remaining count continues dropping below the threshold, set the identity field to "puterid" (no quotes). In this way a unique alert will be triggered each time the available count is reduced by 10 (or more). This means that the monitor identity will be "50" when between 41 and 50 licenses remain, and "40" when between 31 and 40 remain. This value will be customized based on the number of agents you are currently licensed for, but you can change the value to be warned earlier or later. The Identity field reports the available agent licenses in increments of 10. This monitor will compare the number of available licenses to the value in Result.
