Run batch file in IT PAM.

[Anon Anon]

I would like to run this batch file in IT PAM like this one D:\PUTTY\DPO.cmd. I tried the run script operator but it is just running endlessly.

 

Can you teach me how to properly run it?

 

Thanks in advance for the help.

If the batch file does not return a value or is waiting for user interaction, the run script operator will never complete.

 

If you manually run the batch file from a command prompt, do you get results?  Does a prompt return eventually?

I see. Will check and try to return a value on the batch file.

I run the batch file from prompt and it return to the promt

I tried to add echo %errorlevel% at the end of the script and it returned 0

 

I ran it in IT PAM and it still just kept on running endlessly.

From this post I can't tell anything that you are doing wrong.  Maybe try a more simple batch file than the one you are trying to use?  Make sure a simple batch file works? 

 

If you continue to have issues I would encourage you to open a support case so we can take a closer look.  You can upload the process to a support issue and we can evaluate this better.

I tried a simple echo test and it did work. However, I need to run the putty.exe command below.

Do you have any suggestion?

 

@echo off

cd \
D:

cd PUTTY

putty.exe -ssh -load "INTFTP" -l myuser -pw maypassword -m D:\PUTTY\Command.txt
echo %errorlevel%

If you are attempting to launch putty from PAM, the operator will continue to run in PAM until you close putty.  The operator does not get the message that the task is done until the exe is ended.

I have added the exit command on the Putty command.txt and also an exit command on the batch file.

 

Putty will automatically close. How can we tell PAM that putty already closed?

Putty Command:

putty.exe -ssh -load "INTFTP" -l dp -pw mypassword

/home/dp/bin/jobmake ALPINE_inbox_get.cfg

exit

 

@echo off

cd \
D:

cd PUTTY

putty.exe -ssh -load "INTFTP" -l myuser -pw mypassword -m D:\PUTTY\Command.txt
echo %errorlevel%
exit
