Hi Hermien,
Glad you like the Cook Book. I have a couple of ideas when reading your email. See if any of these help...
Like searching in the error.txt file for a string and then setting up notification.
I have a text file....
[cid:
image020.jpg@01CF2808.BD196040]
If I create a Text File Reading and Monitoring job...
[cid:
image022.jpg@01CF2808.BD196040]
This will read the text file C:\Temp\Testfile.txt (shown earlier) and look for a text string “Error-string” in this case. I have not ticked/selected the Exists box, so this job will go to a successful completion if the error text does not exist. When I run this job I get the following...
[cid:
image023.jpg@01CF2808.BD196040]
All good....no error string. Now if I add the error string to the file....
[cid:
image024.jpg@01CF2808.BD196040]
And run the job again, the job fails as it has found the error sting and you can raise some notifications based on the FAILED condition...
[cid:

Also setting up a job to alert us when an agent goes inactive.
I don’t have an immediate solution, however checkout the new r11.3 Dashboards in the Monitor perspective. Double click on SNMP Messages to see the messages DE is generating....

Monitor this when you are having your agent connection issues and see if DE is generating anything here that relates to the agent connectivity. If it is then you could trap these SNMP messages in your SNMP manager and perform some additional automation based on that.

Subject: [CA Workload Automation DE (dSeries Edition)] RE: CA WA DE Cookbook (updated)
Awesome!!!! Thank you for updating the cookbook.
I'm desperately looking for some system related jobs. Like searching in the error.txt file for a string and then setting up notification.
Also setting up a job to alert us when an agent goes inactive. Then notify us via emu or tivoli.
This is for D-Series R11 desktop. We are running into a lot of issues lately where D-Series just quits communicating with different agents.
Not so much that the agent is down . It is more like the D-Seires app can't see it due to network issues.
So I am trying to setup some good notification before D-Series goes into not responding.
Funnn.
I will read over your cookbook. I saw where you can setup snmp to send alerts.
Any suggestions just let me know. :-)
Thank you
Hermien
