RE: Feature Request

P.S. You will need one more SQL statement:

INSERT INTO object_tools_acl (tool_id,user_id) VALUES
(8000,-2147483648);

Best regards,
Victor

Hello!

You can define a tool of type "command", which will execute command on
management workstation (where nxcon.exe is running). You can pass IP
address of selected node by using %OBJECT_IP_ADDR% macro in tool command
line . However, agent will repond only to machines listed in it's
configuration file under Servers, so your workstation should be defined
on all agents as a a mangement server, which can be a problem.

I suggest another solution: below is an SQL script, which you can run
against your NetXMS database. It will add new tool Info->Process List,
which will show process list on selected node. After updating database
you will have to restart console application (you don't need to restart
NetXMS server).

--- snip ---
INSERT INTO object_tools
(tool_id,tool_name,tool_type,tool_data,flags,matching_oid,description)
VALUES (8000,'&Info->&Process list',3,'Process
List#7FSystem.ProcessList#7F^([0-9]+) (.*)',2,'','Show list of currently
running processes'); INSERT INTO object_tools_table_columns
(tool_id,col_number,col_name,col_oid,col_format,col_substr) VALUES
(8000,0,'PID','',0,1); INSERT INTO object_tools_table_columns
(tool_id,col_number,col_name,col_oid,col_format,col_substr) VALUES
(8000,1,'Name','',0,2);
--- snip ---

Best regards,
Victor

Ok.....
I use perl frequently to do simple tasks, Im thinking i could write a
perl script that the Object Tools item will run. The only catch is how
to pass a variable to the perl script. That variable would be the node

name or last known ip address of the item I want to get a process list
on. That way I can just view the perl interpreter window with the list
of processes on it.

This may just be a soloution in my case, as perl is not a necessary req.

for NetXMS.

Do you think this is possible?
