windows powershell client
What's the status of the powershell windows client? I have a few windows servers that need to be monitored and thought I'd try the power shell client instead of BBWin, if the shell client is ready.

Tom,
What's the status of the powershell windows client? I have a few windows servers that need to be monitored and thought I'd try the power shell client instead of BBWin, if the shell client is ready. The following is still the state of play: http://lists.xymon.com/oldarchive/2011/01/msg00244.html
On the only Windows host where I need to run external scripts, I am running XymonPSClient as the client and BBWin with everything else turned off except externals to run those scripts.
David.

Still get the error in powershell, but xymon receive info anyway. So, I see we can get xymonconfig.cfg in %temp% folder. This file is empty. How can I set some feature like bbwin. I would like to monitor some services and other external scripts like bbwin does.
Thx.

David,
Still get the error in powershell, but xymon receive info anyway. So, I see we can get xymonconfig.cfg in %temp% folder. This file is empty. How can I set some feature like bbwin. I would like to monitor some services and other external scripts like bbwin does.
As I mentioned in my earlier e-mail, the PowerShell does not run external scripts at present, so you will need to use BBWin or set up Scheduled tasks if you want to use the PowerShell client for xymon client reports.
I think I can piece together what you tried to do from the exception reports below.
PS C:\xymon> . .\xymonsend.ps1 PS C:\xymon> xymonsend "ping" "xymonhost"
Is your xymon server called "xymonhost"? If not, that is the problem. Substitute its real name.
I've updated the README.txt and the code to better handle the case of using a name which does not lookup to an IP address.
PS C:\Xymon> XymonSend ping xymonhost XymonSend : No IP addresses could be found for host: xymonhost At line:1 char:10
- XymonSend <<<< ping xymonhost
- CategoryInfo : InvalidData: (:) [Write-Error], WriteErrorException
- FullyQualifiedErrorId : Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.WriteErrorException,XymonSend
David.
Thx.
