Context menu for Sensors with custom scripts.

Votes:

0

On a device sensor context menu (such as a server), there is a RDP option under Device Tools.

Is it possible to have a custom sub-context menu for a sensor to add our own scripts? For example, on a WMI Service sensor, I would like an option to manually stop or start a service (either through built-in tools if available or custom scripts I would write), rather than relying on a trigger to execute a command/exe.

Does something like this already exist (either through PRTG or 3rd party add-on)? If not, is it possible to have a manually activated script or executable (not based on a trigger) for a sensor at this point in time?

Thank you

That's possible within the Enterprise Console already, please have a look at the Tool configuration :)

Note that this feature won't be added to the webinterface.
