This script will run on a Windows Platform. pslist is a tool that can be retrieved from http://www.sysinternals.com/ntw2k/freeware/pstools.shtml the output from pslist EXCEL looks like: C:\Tivoli\lcf\bin\w32-ix86\tools>pslist EXCEL PsList 1.23 - Process Information Lister Copyright (C) 1999-2002 Mark Russinovich Sysinternals - www.sysinternals.com Process information for CRP-DAY1-S75410: Name Pid Pri Thd Hnd Mem User Time Kernel Time Elapsed Time EXCEL 2936 8 2 131 16240 0:00:00.015 0:00:00.453 0:00:13.609 >From Script: $lcf_tools = $ENV{LCF_TOOLSDIR}; @temparry = `"$lcf_tools\\pslist EXCEL"`; foreach $temp (@temparray){ ($name,$pid,$pri,$thd,$hnd,$Mem,$usertime,$kerneltime,$elapsedtime) = split(" ",$temp); print LOGFILE "name is $name"; &AnalyzeProcess($name,$elapsedtime); } ###&AnalyzeProcess ---> this will decide to kill the process or keep it running I am having issues getting my array filled, or does someone else already have a script that does something very similar to what I am wanting to do.
