    Problems with snmptrapd.conf

    Problem solved! Those messages relate to SELinux which is apparently some kind of new prototype security feature shipped with later releases of RedHat Linux. I just disabled it...and things starting working. But I understand I could of equally amended the policy settings to remove the...

    Problems with snmptrapd.conf

    I am running snmptrapd version 5.1.2 on a server with Linux ES 4 installed. I have configured the /etc/snmp/snmptrapd.conf file to call a script for all incoming traps : traphandle default /usr/sbin/snmptthandler But whenever a trap is sent to my server the above script is not run. Instead...

    Accessing job log in post job script

    I want to be able to run a Post Job script that parses the job log for success/failure and then reports the findings to another application (for further processing). The only problem is I need access to the job log from within my script but am not sure how to achieve this. I guess just knowing...

    Alert

    I have configured Arcserve to send SNMP traps to a Linux server when my back-up job succeeds or fails. This seem to work fine. The snmptrapd daemon running on my Linux server successfully intercepts the trap and places it in my /var/log/messages file (via syslog). However, I am a little...

    sending XML files from Linux

    Am a complete newbie to XML so apologies in advance for the nature of my question! Basically, I want to send an XML file to a web server from a Linux box. The address where I need to send the file looks something like this : https://myserver.com/asp/myscript.asp Does anyone know how I would...

    Thanks. I will look into that.

    Running a script on backup completion

    Well, we are in the process of developing all our monitoring activity around Nagios. The Arcserve backups are just one of many things we would like to monitor in this way. I suppose I may be able get Arcserve to send SNMP traps to our Nagios server and do it that way. But was just wondering...

    Running a script on backup completion

    Is it possible to make Arcserve run a user-defined script once a backup has completed and somehow pass the contents of the backup report to it (via STDIN perhaps)? The idea being that my script could then parse the backup report for success/failure and use this info to generate alerts via...

    How do you know if Paradox is running?

    Hmmmmmmm...yep, probably not the best solution. Kinda brings things full circle though. Other than being able to test for the process running (which I can't 'cos there is no PID) and not having the luxury of the .ini thingy (this being an app written by a software company who I doubt are just...

    How do you know if Paradox is running?

    Did a bit more investigating and discovered there is a file C:\pfwrun5\private\changed.db that seems to exist when the app is running and disappear when it's not. So, I have just written a simple script that tests for the existance of this file. Seems to work a treat. Many thanks for all your help.

    How do you know if Paradox is running?

    Hi...can't recall the exact name of the process I saw running since it's on another computer that I currently can't see. But all I did was right click on the app that is definitely always running and then selected the "Go to process..." thingy and then it just highlighted the process in the...

    How do you know if Paradox is running?

    I want to use Nagios to determine if a Paradox application is running on a remote Windows machine. The problem I have is that although the application is definitely running and appears in the Task Manager list as process pdxrwin.exe, it doesn't appear to have a process id attached to it...

    Problems with STDIN

    Looks like there was a problem with my perl script after all! Basically, my script extracts the backup group name from the header record and uses this to formulate a filename to which I then save the report. To identify the header record I was searching for the text "Networker Savegroup"...

    Problems with STDIN

    Hi... I think I have seen this link before but it didn't seem to help :-( You will notice that the article does state the following (when discussing the 'Action' parameter) : 'Note: When the "Action" program or script is invoked, the contents of the message are passed in STDIN.' My...

    Problems with STDIN

    Hi, you will have to forgive me but I am quite new to Legato NW and my knowledge of Windows programming syntax is not so hot either! Please could you give me an example of how I would achieve this. I am assuming you mean I should have something like this in my action field : nsrlog -f...

    Problems with STDIN

    I am running Legato NW on a Windows 2000 server and have created a customised server notification that will automatically run a perl script on Savegroup Completion (alert or notice). This is what I have got in my action field : D:\perl\bin\perl.exe C:\backup_status.pl My perl program uses a...

    Problem with customized notifications

    My script now seems to work okay. Thanks for that. However, I have been playing around with an alternative method (which I would prefer to the awk) but this also seems to be giving me probs. Instead of calling the awk script I tried using the following in my UNIX script : #!/usr/bin/ksh...

    Problem with customized notifications

    thanks...I will try that and let you know how I get on. Any ideas what caused your core dump (just in case I have the same prob)?

    Problem with customized notifications

    P.S. I have also tested the script on the command line by catting the contents of a savegroup notification message to it : cat savegrpnotice | save_report.sh and this works fine. So, as stated above, the problem seems to be that my script isn't being passed anything from the notification...
