RE: [SA-list] Powershell scripts for external checks.
We usually use something along this line to execute the powershell script
command inside a ServersAlive check:
powershell -WindowStyle Hidden &'D:\Program Files (x86)\Woodstone\Servers
Alive\external\serversalive_psscript.ps1'

Thats great, just the sort of stuff I was after a taking a look at.
What is the batch script like that you call this from, or can you now call
Powershell scripts directly from within Servers Alive?

Servers Alive Check type : external (errorlevel); alarm when errorlevel <> 0.
An example of a PS-script I use :
$RemoteServer=$args[0]
$RefValue=1
$Value=Invoke-Command -computername $RemoteServer -ScriptBlock
{(get-itemproperty "HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft Data Protection
Manager\Agent\2.0").Forcefixup}
if ($Waarde -eq $RefValue)
{
write-host "OK. Value ForceFixup is $Value. "
exit 0
}
else
{
write-host "Error. Value ForceFixup is $Value, must be $RefValue."
exit 1
}
The script checks if a registry-key still has value 1. If not it ends with an
errorlevel 1 and Servers Alive then generates an error.
Kind regards.

Subject: [SA-list] Powershell scripts for external checks.
Mailing List Users,
I have been away from Servers Alive external check development for some time
and the version of Servers Alive has moved on a fair bit since I was last doing
this sort of work.
I have had a quick look on the Servers Alive website for information regarding
using Powershell for external checks, as this is now my preferred scripting
language, but Im not seeing much on the web site or the email list
archives.
Is anyone making much use of Powershell for their external checking processes,
would anyone be will to give me some ideas of the sort of stuff they are doing
and how you are wrapping Powershell scripts up so that they can be called from
within Servers Alive for performing external checks.
Regards,
Andy

Re: [SA-list] New GUI layout
Hi David, continuing on your MMC layout If you say the groups/checks, then I suppose that the check is or the pretty-name or a little description as we have now in the tree-interface. The center part would then contain all config parameters of the check itself I suppose (just as would be an EDIT of the entry -> check tab?). And what would you see at the right then? And what about the other tabs we currently have in the EDIT screen? dirk On 2016-12-07 09:05, David Wagstaff wrote: > Dirk was asking for suggestions for an updated GUI. > > I know its been around for a while but the Microsoft MMC layout works > very well. > > With the Groups / Checks on the left > > The centre would have the check itself > > And on the right could be dependant on what is selected in the centre > > OR > > Not sure of a layout but what about a client server app with a web > front end? > > David > > David Wagstaff > Systems Engineer > 01543 302253 > david.wagst...@pink.uk.net > http://www.pink.uk.net > > [1] > > [1] > > = > > This e-mail and the information it contains may be privileged and/or > confidential. > It is for the intended addressee(s) only. > The unauthorised use, disclosure or copying of this email, or any > information it contains > is prohibited and could in certain circumstances be a criminal > offence. > If you are not the intended recipient, > please notify systemmanager at pink.uk.net immediately and delete the > message from your system. > > Please note that Pink Home Loans does not enter into any form of > contract by means of Internet email. > None of the staff of Pink Home Loans is authorised to enter into > contracts on behalf of the company in this way. > All contracts to which Pink Home Loans is a party, are documented by > other means. > > Pink Home Loans monitors e-mails to ensure its systems operate > effectively and to minimise the risk of viruses. > Whilst it has taken reasonable steps to scan this email, it does not > accept liability for any virus that it may contain. > > Registered in England and Wales number 2217569. > Registered office Newcastle House,Albany Court,Newcastle Business > Park,Newcastle Upon Tyne,Tyne & Wear.

[SA-list] New GUI layout
Dirk was asking for suggestions for an updated GUI. I know its been around for a while but the Microsoft MMC layout works very well. With the Groups / Checks on the left The centre would have the check itself And on the right could be dependant on what is selected in the centre OR Not sure of a layout but what about a client server app with a web front end?
