Good morning,

Thanks again for keeping up on this with me.

The system log did not update over the weekend. Where does the Quicklog log to? I haven't been able to find that yet.

Ok, so adding the logging to the script indicates that HostMonitor isn't running the script at all (I've changed it again, this time to call the vbscript directly - the cmd file wasn't logging anything either). I thought I may have had the script fire properly once, but I think I may have piled up t...

Hah, sorry, I totally forgot those. HM version: 9.90 Running as an application Windows 7 Pro SP1 UAC is currently enabled at one step above the disabled setting (it's the standard in our environment). 1) yes, monitoring is started (good question - been burned there more than once). 2) The test is se...

Hi there, I'm trying to build an alert from Hostmonitor using a VBScript to Pushover. I can tell you that the scripts that I've put together actually do work outside of HM. I receive the alerts from Pushover whenever I run them from the commmand line. The current set up is as follows: - Performance ...

Thanks Alex!

Hi there, We've got HostMonitor v. 9.90 (RCC 4.90) running several SSH tests to make sure that our Synology disk stations are up and running. The test script is simple. It just returns the up time. We recently updated the Synology boxes to 5.1-5022 Update 1 (https://www.synology.com/en-us/releaseNot...

Actually, I'm starting to think the issue may be with plink itself. I'm going to try rewriting it to use a powershell SSH module.

This sounds similar to my issue...

Of course...

$results = & "$plink" -ssh -batch -l $ASAUser -pw $ASApw $ASAIP -m c:\temp\commands.txt 2>c:\temp\stderr.txt

Ok, got that straightened out. It's now calling correctly again... stderr.txt contains... plink.exe : Unable to read from standard input: The handle is invalid. At C:\Users\mbeck\AppData\Local\Temp\4\TMP-77~1.PS1:383 char:15 + $results = & <<<< "$plink" -ssh -batch -l $ASAUser -pw $ASA...

I'm getting this now when I use an IP:

[8:13:18 AM] HostMonitor is going to execute "FileCheck" script ...
[8:13:19 AM] Script started, no results received

... so I guess I must have missed a case to handle.

That was a good idea. It looks like plink isn't resolving the name of the server that I'm trying to get it to connect to. Thank you for your help!

Hostmonitor runs on a Windows 2008 R2 server. It is not UAC enabled currently. Unfortunately, if I made the switch to using the local system account or admin account, I may break a number of other tests (we have nearly 1900 tests currently in use). I'm very reluctant to try that. I'm only able to us...

Once again, thank you so much for your help. I used the code you supplied and yes, I was running the 64bit while RCC was running the 32bit. I tried supplying the path you specified for 64bit ... C:\Windows\sysnative\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe %Script% %Params% ... and it still returns the...

I will give that a try and let you know. Thanks very much!
