Hi all,

Now finally I have released version 1.3 that supports PCM API 3.0 Input controls
A whole new range of scripts can now be created and executed from within POTS.
Go and check it out http://forum.pulseway.com/topic/274-poweroftheshell-plugin-13/#entry1117

Please let me know if you have any questions for this build, or you experience any problems.

Thanks again for using my plugin.
Cheers

Hi,



PCMonitorHelper it's a LaunchDaemon. Even if you will kill it from Activity Monitor, process respawns. LaunchDaemon's are controlled by launchd. The correct way to load/unload is via launchctl.

From the PC Monitor Manager press the "Account Details" button and go to the "Associated Accounts" tab.

In the next Enterprise Server update this feature will also be supported in the server Admin app.

This is a server module we are considering adding in a future release.

This would be a good feature for both Linux and Windows command line stuff. For Windows, I use scheduled tasks without a schedule, so I can trigger them from the Scheduled Tasks component of PC Monitor. But this is an awkward way to do it.

Since Thursday strangely everything goes again. See how long time. Thank you for your support.

I agree to this. These statistics would help an IT Manager decide whether a particular hardware was being misused, or whether was requiring repair or replacements as well. A top notch MIS report for sure!

Would it be possible to put load all event logs from chosen servers into one area on PC Monitor? I have set up the event log notification after following the thread in another post (thanks Paul).

Just set it up on my phone. Works perfectly for me.

Hello everyone,

I actually had this problem too. PC Monitor for work and home at the same time. I ended up using an iPad for work and iPhone for home, this way I have separate devices and I receive notifications from both accounts.

I think that this technique is used to prevent people from flooding Mobile PC Monitor's servers by creating a lot of accounts and spamming notifications.

This isn't really that bad. If you really want to have notifications from multiple accounts just buy an Enterprise Server.

Hi
I want to inform that after the upgrade to the version 3.1 the program it's working fine with the mobile network (3G) and wifi
I also did a upgrade to my tablet to the Android version 4.0.3 and all it's working like a charm :-)

Regards!
Hector

We will add an option in the PC Monitor Admin app to use your own salting parameter. It will then be combined with your server Url to make it unique for each Enterprise Server instance.

cloud api is definitely the key for integration with other monitoring systems or applications. for me it has much more potential than pc monitor plugins. i have not done much .NET development so far and nearly no C# but when i can get productive results on the first day it is a good sign

i do not agree completely. yes, the hash represents my password but i can only use it with authentication api's that allow using the hash and not everywhere, for instance at the web app or in the mobile apps. but when someone has my real password he can use it everywhere.

my idea was to accept the hash as logon password only with machanisms where an automated login is required, not everywhere. the Cloud API is such a thing.

but the facts are clear now that marius explained so i will use an alternative.

by the way, paul, i have read many of your posts in here and i thought many times this guy is a genious in really understanding the things. keep on!

Hi All,

In the meantime I've set a notification to come up if the following happens:

Event Log: System
Level: Error
Keywords: bad,block
Event IDs: 7
Sources: Disk

This happened on a work PC but I noticed it, but handy to have it tell you.

Well you will need to port forward the UDP 9 port to any of your IP address from your home router. After you've do so you will be able to wake up your computers from outside your home network.

Or you can create a .reg file for the enabled and disabled file and call it from terminal like this:


regedit.exe /s path_to_your_reg_file or even better you can create batch scripts that contain the command and place them in your PATH variable (by default system32 and windows are included in path) then you can type: enablemaintenancemode.bat and disablemaintenancemode.bat

With PC Monitor the posibilities are endless

Paul.

It's implemented and will be available in a next release.

Thank you for the fast response, now that is what I call 5 star customer service!

Hello,

This is commonly caused because someone or something kill the pcmontask process. Please check if the pcmontask is running and if it's not running then someone must have closed it. To prevent someone from closing it make a scheduled task that runs only on manual call and has an action to start the pcmontask. Then you can create a rule that will check if the process closes then fire the sceduled task, this will restart the process every time someone kills it and eventually the person will get bored.

Cheers.

If you move the mouse over the lines you'll get some more info for each point.

So I am running in Amazon Cloud and my monthly cost is $30 a month for a reserved Windows box... Pretty Good price I must say!

Yes that's right, expect to be notified when a Windows updates that server/pc needs reboot...

During update the user helper app (pcmontask) it's being closed - it will restart next time a user logs in or when you run the PC Monitor Manager.
 
Chris Update 2015: This is no longer the case. After the update Pulseway will automatically restart the user helper app (pcmontask).

Well known for several AV solutions: http://www.gdatasoftware.com/ What is unique to them for now is that they are one of few only companies providing solutions for MS Windows Home Server 2011.
Just opened ticket with them, but no responce yet...
