Inno-Tech's Administration ToolChest: Task Control Library
tcInit()
tcDefineTask('APP=kix32 PRM=test.kix $X==4 CMT=my test USR=username PWD=password')
tcDefineTrigger('STM=16:00 TYP=WEEKLY ARG=1,.M.W.F.')
tcSetEvent('Hostname', 'TestEvent')
Yes, four lines of code is all it takes to create a scheduled task event anywhere! This one runs ”kix32.exe test.kix $X=4” every Mon, Wed, and Fri at 4pm.
tcLib is a Task Control library - a suite of functions designed to manipulate the Windows Task Scheduler with Microsoft's JT.EXE (included in the download package). It can directly create, edit, delete, and even execute tasks on any system you have access to. Gone are the days of using Explorer, dealing with AT's limitations, or struggling with the obscure syntax of other command-line tools. The library requires minimal configuration to define the location of the JT command if it is not available from the system PATH.
tcLib is a KiXtart powerhouse!
- Need to find every task that uses a particular account and change the password?
- Need to define a task on every server that depends on another task?
- Need to get a detailed inventory of every scheduled task on your application servers?
- Need to immediately run a command on a local or remote system with specific credentials?
