You could use the FileSystem check in the Microsoft Log Parser tool. Just create a VB script and schedule it to run as often as needed. I have mine check about 40 or so .bkf files daily for Size, LastAccess, LastWrite and Created before they are written to tape. It then dumps the report into an xml file that I check when I get to work in the morning.
Hope I’m not totally way in understanding what you were asking for. ----- Thomas Johns Systems Administrator Beeline.com Office (904) 360-2659 Mobile (904) 738-3917 Yahoo IM - tjohns_bline -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Servers Alive Discussion List [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Barry George Sent: Wednesday, May 30, 2007 1:46 PM To: Servers Alive Discussion List Subject: [SA-list] File Properties System Date Parameter? Hi all, I need to check a remote log file is being updated every x minutes (creation time change). Each day it creates a new file with a name based on system date. Is there a way to parses this name change via the File Properties app? We would use this to check if a service has hung. If not, what suggestions can people make?
