Searched the forums but haven't found anything. Looking for scripts to monitor the status of a ZFS Pool on Proxmox and ideally a seperate script for monitoring SMART status as well.

I am making an Automation Script that updates a custom plugin-file, that might is always be in use, to a newer version.

If the plugin doesn't already exist everything works fine.

But if it already exist it cannot be overwritten, because the Pulseway Service (and managers, if any are running) is using the file.

My solution is to stop the service, overwrite the file and start the service.

It works very well when executing manually in ISE, but not when executed as an Automation Script from Pulseway.

It looks like the entire script is terminated when the service stops, and the execution doesn't return anything in execution history - not even an error.

Could anyone help me with the best practice for updating a plugin dll-file from an Automation Script.

Best Regards,

Martin Stevnhoved

I can see the output in Pulseway after it runs when I click on the execution option. But I would like to run it for all of the customers machines and get the output all at once.

Is there an easy way to do this in Pulseway automation?

I'm looking for a solution for this problem:

I've stored all of our assets warranty end date in a SYSTEM custom field called WARRANTY.

Then I've created two other GLOBAL custom field. One called TODAY the other is TODAY30 and they are daily updated with the current date and current date + 1 month.

How can I set a condition in workflow that checks if WARRANTY is between these two dates?

Currently I can only set static dates:

Thanks in advance for your answers!

I've been using Pulseway for a couple years now on a limited basis but want to start using it more.

One of the issues I find is that PCs go offline and and I cannot wake them up. I was planning on going round 25 desktop PCs and change the following settings:

Power Mode = Best Performance

Screen and Sleep > When Plugged in, put my device to sleep after > Never

Is there a way I can do that via a policy or script and save all the leg work?

thanks

In Automation > Custom Fields I have another one called FileShares as a custom Text field as well.

My script is pretty basic, so I don't see why its not saving the field.

# Outputs
$FileShares = "0"
# Get all shared folders on the local computer
$shares = Get-WmiObject -Class Win32_Share | Select-Object Name, Path

# Output the list of shares
if ($shares) {
    Write-Host "Current File Shares on $env:COMPUTERNAME:`n"
    $shares | Format-Table -AutoSize
} else {
    Write-Host "No file shares found on $env:COMPUTERNAME."
}
Start-Process -FilePath "$env:PWY_HOME\CLI.exe" -ArgumentList ("setVariable FileShares ""$shares""") -Wait

So all I'm doing is getting a list of shared folders on a computer, saving it as $shares, and then writing that as a formatted table.

At the end, i'm running the CLI, to set the variable of FileShares to the results of $shares

The script runs, and i can see results, however I cannot see the results in the computers custom field.

Backup...etc.

Currently this doesn't exist.  When there are outages, we are having to run to forums, Reddit, etc.  That information should be made public and centralized.  Other providers have that, and it likely would cut down on volume of tickets saying, "Hey your service is down."

Thanks!

I recommend updating the script to this, and I highlighted the changes:

$version = (Get-WmiObject Win32_OperatingSystem).Version
[int]$major = $version.split(".")[0]
[int]$minor = $version.split(".")[1]
if ($major -gt 6 -or ($major -eq 6 -and $minor -gt 1)) {
    Optimize-Volume -driveletter $pwd.drive.name -Analyze -verbos
} Else {
    Write-Output "Operating system is not supported."
}

Here is the original script:

$version = (Get-WmiObject Win32_OperatingSystem).Version
$major = $version.split(".")[0]
$minor = $version.split(".")[1]
if ($major -gt 6 -or ($major -eq 6 -and $minor -gt 1)) {
    Optimize-Volume $pwd.drive.name -Analyze -verbos
} Else {
    Write-Output "Operating system is not supported."
}

So we need to automate patching and reporting for Mac OS. From the best of my knowledge I can't find this feature anywhere within pulseway (crazy I know), and I can't find any scripts within the forum. 

Can anyone help me out on this one? I'll update if I find anything myself.

I want to standardise this across all my workstations

Please help

I am new to pulseway. Have written the following PowerShell script which works fine on my test machine.

Clear-RecycleBin -Force

However when run from pulse way it reports the script has run successfully but nothing is deleted from the recycle bin.

The following error is shown in execution details:

Clear-RecycleBin : The system cannot find the path specified
At C:\Program Files\Pulseway\automation_b6682084_076f_4d67_80a0_0200e70e0897.ps1:1 char:1
+ Clear-RecycleBin -Force
+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    + CategoryInfo          : InvalidOperation: (RecycleBin:String) [Clear-RecycleBin], Win32Exception
    + FullyQualifiedErrorId : FailedToClearRecycleBin,Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.ClearRecycleBinCommand
 

I have tried:

cd \
Clear-RecycleBin -Force

But same results.

Is this a permission issue, that does not allow the script to run ?

Thanks in advance.

We are trying to create an email template (fancy one) but the system is not accepting CSS
Is there any tutorial or document how we can make an template for the PSA emails to customers?

Hope someone has an solution

The Screen Connect tool is great because it allows you to directly upload the .exe to the SC server and then push it out to any machine with the SC client. I hope Pulseway implements this soon.

i am looking for a way to tell some of our computers to download and install av industry-specific software on our technical and lighting computers

software examples.
- Dante Controller
-GrandMA2 onPC
-Wireless Workbench
-Etc.

any assistance would be appreciated

What there are a couple of scripts listed in the forums but unfortunately I am having difficulty with implementation.

Ideally enable BL and pulling and storing the key would be the way to go but I am not sure on the feasibility of it.

I am not a programmer but I am familiar enough with Pulseway that any help accomplishing this would be appreciated.

Thank you

I've got a HTPC windows 10 with pulseway monitoring it. Every so often I get notified the PC has gone offline. I think it's because it doesn't have a static IP which I'll fix later.

Getting it to go online is just a simple turn the pc off and on. I am wondering if it's possible to setup pulseway to restart the pc when it sends an offline notification? This would solve my problem for now.

Thanks for any advice :)

Thanks

I would like to enable "Create Restore Point before installing" in Patch Management > Policies > My Policy

This policy is run in a schedule. However because of storage concerns I would like it to remove the previous restorepoint before creating a new one. (It would even be better if it is possible to keep 3 restore points and only deleting the oldest one.)

Is this possible either with a script or in some other way?

Thanks in advance!
