Monitor Windows Tasks?

[robert.cox@gapac.com]

I have a couple of Windows Scheduled Tasks on one of my servers; one that runs hourly and the other runs nightly. I'm looking for a way to monitor/report that they ran,or more importantly, if they did not run.

Thanks,

Hi,

Scheduled tasks don't seem to write anything to the Windows event log or anywhere else so you'll likely need to use a slightly roundabout route.

Instead of launching the task directly you can launch a batch file that both starts the task and writes to a log file on completion. Then you can use our File Event Monitor to check the file's last modified date and warn you if it has remained the same since the last check.
