Check: Activity of an application
Overview
The monitoring robot proposes to check the activity of a WINDEV application.
In this case, the robot will check the activity of the application by reading the date and the time found in a .INI file. This INI file is an activity file, regularly filled by the WINDEV application that is checked. The activity can also be read in the robot's database (e.g. to test the activity of the robot or a Robot controller).
The check will be:
  • successful if the date and the time read do not exceed the alert timeout.
  • failure otherwise.
Remark: The file to be checked can be a file on an FTP server.
Parameters specific to application activity control

Application details

These parameters concern the WINDEV application to check. You must specify:
  • the name of the computer where the application is installed (computer accessible by the robot).
  • the name of the WINDEV application.
  • the timeout before the alert. This is the maximum time allowed between the date and time specified in the INI file and the date and time of the test.

Information about activity

There are three ways to test the activity of the application:
  • Network INI file: These parameters concern the INI file used to test application activity.. In this case, you must specify:
    • the name of the directory where the INI file is installed (computer accessible by the robot).
    • the name of the INI file.
    • the section that must be read in the INI file.
    • the name of keyword containing the date and time in YYYYMMDDHHmmSS format.
  • INI file via FTP: The application's INI file can be accessed via an FTP server.. In this case, you must specify the characteristics of the FTP server to use:
    • the address of the FTP server.
    • the port number of the server and the connection mode (passive or not).
    • the user and the associated password.
  • Robot database: These parameters can also be saved in the robot database, in the "ApplicationActivity" data file.. In this case, you must specify the application identifier.

Application restart information

This information is used to try to restart the WINDEV application. If the "Restart enabled" option is checked, it is possible to specify:
  • the maximum number of restart attempts.
  • the username and password. The application will be restarted with this information.
  • the application path and the command line if necessary.
