Disk space reports

[Guest]

Hello,

I want to create a report for a number of servers listed in Hyena. I want to be able to report the percentage of disk space. I also want to exclude a number of these servers. I can see that you can skip servers in a list but the file type is DAT.

Can i create one of these?

Once i create the list i would like to automate this every morning

The files are just text files with .DAT extension.

Since you want to automate this you'll need to use Exporter Pro because it can be scheduled.

Re: Disk space reports

The easiest way to do this is to select servers in Hyena, then go to Tools->Exporter Pro->Export Selected Objects. After you run it you can look at the properties it put for each of the objects selected.

Re: Disk space reports

Exporter Pro has a command line syntax of:

stexport.exe /CONFIG=path_to_your_ini_file

You can put that in a batch file and schedule it using Windows Task Scheduler.

Re: Disk space reports

when i try to run the batch file i get the following error:

Missing object file setting in config file. The object file path and name must be set under configuration -> export Properties -> file locations

I have looked for "file locations" tab but it does not seem to be there.

thanks

Go ahead and send details of what you've setup (screenshots may help too) to [email protected].

Hello,

I think i have it working now with one last issue. i am running the batch file and a splash scrren appears and wont run the report.

i need to prove this working without any problems before my managers will agree to purchase this tool.

can this be disabled?

thanks

Unfortunately only a key can disable that message.
