The URL check can do this on any type of file, as long as the file can be retrieved via the HTTP(S) protocol. http://www.company.com/mypage.cgi works too...Servers Alive will "see" the result of the CGI 'script'...         dirk. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jason Passow Sent: Fri Nov 07 3:01 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [SA-list] Ideas from Group So you do a url check on a text file?   I was going to suggest a check be added to servers alive to search a text file for certain info but, if I understand you correctly, the url check as written can do this on a .txt file?   From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Rob McShinsky Sent: Thursday, November 06, 2003 6:40 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [SA-list] Ideas from Group   We use the URL check and look for certain words, like "FAIL".  We have a central Monitoring IIS server where we automate a copy of multiple log files to a specific directory within the IIS server.  >From there they can be scanned or viewed manually from a central location.   Rob McShinsky ----- Original Message ----- From: Dirk Bulinckx To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, November 06, 2003 4:27 AM Subject: RE: [SA-list] Ideas from Group   Write an external check for it?         dirk. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ahmed Hassan Sent: Thu Nov 06 8:12 AM To: Salive Subject: [SA-list] Ideas from Group I  have 15 remote offices that I use Robocopy to replicate data to my central site for the nightly backups. Robocopy generates a log file for each remote office after each replication which shows e.g. start/end date & time, failure etc. (Please see attached a snip of the log file, probably this might help in determine how best to approach it)   I was wondering whether anyone knows of a way that I can use SAlive/external check to be able to check the Robocopy log files for any failures.   Thanks   Want to chat instantly with your online friends? Get the FREE Yahoo!
