It might be because of other reasons that you get the -1
How did you get the -1 via the BAT file that prints the errorlevel or did you
see that in Servers Alive?
If in Servers Alive, then it can also because within the .BAT file you don't
have the path to the files you're calling.
So instead of doing
DCDIAG.EXE
do
c:\directory\subdirectory\dcdiag.exe

Hi Arnold,
that's quite strange. Can you paste here your dcdiag output? Btw this is one
command "DCdiag.exe /S:DC /TEST:fsmocheck | find "test FsmoCheck" | find /v
"failed". Basicly what does it do is to find "test FsmoCheck" line within the
output and then it will try to search for "failed" word on the same line (or
you can swap it for passed one). Regarding the result (true or false) it will
output 0 or 1 errorlevel.
Rgds,
Petr

Hi Petr,
I tried that already. It doesn’t work. It always returns -1. No matter
what I check.

Try the following command: DCdiag.exe /S:DC /TEST:fsmocheck | find "test
FsmoCheck" | find /v "failed" regarding the result you will get errorlevel 0 or
1.
You can test it in command prompt running the command and then type echo
%errorlevel%. Then just make a batch file. I think it should work in salive
though I didn't test it.
Br,
Petr

Yes I want to capture the string output.
I run this command: DCdiag.exe /S:mydc /TEST:fsmocheck /F:C:\LOG\FSMO.log and
want to know if the log contains the string “passed test FsmoCheck”
or “passed failed FsmoCheck”
Are there any SA customers who are doing this test already and/or is there
another way?
Are there any COM examples?
Regards,
Arnold

If the output is send as errorlevel (that it would only be a number) then SA
can get that back via the EXTERNAL ERRORLEVEL check.
If "string" output needs to be returned to Servers Alive then you will have to
create a COM check for this.

Hi,
Is there a way to capture output from external commands?
I mean, I can for example execute “DCdiag.exe /S:mydc
/TEST:kccevent” that displays the result on screen or in a log but can I
sent the output through SA.
Regards,
Arnold
