How-to stop test by script (locally or remotely)

[kevnad]

Hi,

I have HostMonitor 9.18 running as a service on a Windows 2003 server.

What we want to do, is to create a tools that will enable admin to stop their test without having to have an access with RCC.

We want to create an apps that will list the test and enable them to stop a test.

Is it possible?

Thanks

You may use Telnet Service and some telnet client

or use HM Script files and Execute HMScript action
(e.g. create File Availability to check for new version of script file and add "Execute HMScript" action into profile assigned to the test).
Then 3rd party application may create script files and HostMontor will execute specified commands automatically

E-Mail test can be used to detect and execute HMS commands, sent by E-mail.
You may setup E-mail test and assign "Execute HMScript" action.
HMS script file may look like the following:

Code: Select all

%MailBody%

or:

Code: Select all

DisableTestByID %MailSubj%

I will use the script with a FileCheck test.
