This script will email a log file (or any file specified) only if the file is under a certain size. If the file is over that size limit, it will still email, but no log will be attached. See Script does not use parameters, everything is hard coded, so just call the .vbs. Great in a scheduled task to email you a daily log file. Can easily be modified with parameters for various purposes. Option Explicit Dim iMsg, iConf, Flds, pc 'Email vars Dim logFile, maxLogSize 'Log vars Dim FSO, File, strSiz...

This script will start or stop a process by process name. If the process is already running with a start is called, it will not start a duplicate. The benefit is that it will NOT start the script twice. So if you want to ensure an application is running all the time, just setup a scheduled task to run this script every 10 minutes, if the .exe dies it will start it, if the .exe is still running, it won't start a duplication. REM Example Script.bat (note I path to the .exe dir so it runs in its l...

Very handy VBScript, watches a process during a certian time interval, if it's running good, if not start it unless it's beyond the time interval, then kill it. Good if you want a program to run between 1pm-5pm but not the rest of the time. Hook this up to a scheduled task and exec every 10 minutes to ensure app is running or app is dead. IF the process is down in the time frame, it will start it, and send out an email that it was down. See You must edit the script below. Must set the process t...

See LXF 114 p48, 'Banish Your Daemons' Runlevels are defined levels in which a linux operating system can start. Daemons (or services) are scripts/programs that run in the background constantly (like apache or mysql are services that are always running) and are usually executed at startup by the defined runlevel. Runlevels are identified by a number from 0 - 6, but each linux distribution may use those numbers a bit differently. Basically a runlevel determines which daemons to execute at startu...
