Notifications does not run EXE

Hello,

Could you please forward us your script to Supportpaessler.com for analysis? Which parameter you are using for the notification exe? Please refer to this kb post.

Notifications and exe notifications are send only from the core server not from remote probes.

Slightly modified Demo file below. The parameter I use is: "c:\temp\test.txt" "reason ". I have used no quotes, single quotes, etc. Same result.

>Notifications and exe notifications are send only from the core server not from remote probes.

So how do we grab information of a device that breached a threshold? For example: CPU over 80, send notification, notification runs script to get some info(top processes that consumes CPU, etc.) from that trouble device.

How do we do this if the script is run on the server? Use WMI ? What does the Probe do in the context of notifications running scripts. Nothing?

Thanks!

(again, this script works when run normally on a 32 bit PS console)

if ($Args.Count -eq 0) {

  #No Arguments. Filename must be specified.

  exit 1;
 }elseif ($Args.Count -eq 2){
  Write-Host "here's arg 0: $($args[0])"
  Write-Host "here's arg 1: $($args[1])"
  $Path = split-path $Args[0];
  
  if (Test-Path $Path)    
  {
    $Text = "{0:D}" -f (Get-Date);
    $Text+" "+$Args[1] | out-File $Args[0];
    exit 0;
  
  }else
  {
    # Directory does not exist.
    exit 2;
  }
}

Well you need to retrieve the values manually in the script, using Get-WMIObject or Remote Powershell. PRTG can't provide the metrics at real time when a notification is triggered.
