DX Unified Infrastructure Management

I have a basic .bat file to restart a service when a logfile match is found.  It appears to run based on the logmon probe log file, but it is not executing any of the commands.

Command

C:\Program Files (x86)\Nimsoft\probes\system\logmon\SVC_RESTART.bat

.bat file

@ECHO ON
echo "begin SVC_RESTART script" >> scr.log
net stop "ServiceName"
net start "ServiceName"
TIMEOUT /T 5
echo "exiting SVC_RESTART script" >> scr.log

Hi,

recarter. Having just attempted something similar and got an error try putting quotes around the file path e.g. "C:\Program Files (x86)\Nimsoft\probes\system\logmon\SVC_RESTART.bat". In my attempt the space was not liked and it threw an exit code 1 at log level 3. 

NOTE: I am running a command to check the output while you are running a command action after you find something in a log but it is worth giving it a go.

The default timeout for command execution is 1 sec.

It means that the command will be killed after 1 sec.

If your script need more time, increase timeout value.

I tried the single and double quotes, but that generated an error script "failed to start".  I moved the script to a folder with no spaces and it ran successfully.  So, there seems to be an issue with spaces in the command field on the logmon probe.

According to the release notes logmon versions before 3.55 had a defect with spaces.

have you tried 8.3 format for the command?

Thanks - that works!  I'll also request clarification on this in the documentation.
