Hi all

I'd just like to know the best way to have a daily report emailed of all tasks that ran in VC in the previous 24 hours. For example:

Task Name
Times Scheduled
Times Actually Ran
Success Count
Error Count

Or something like that.

Any and all suggestions appreciated.

Cheers,

Hi carcher,

If you have some program experience, you can use the API for this and loop through all your jobs, get everyting you want from the properties.

or

Use the file write task and add all the variables you want for every job you want to review.


Save it to a file and let VC email this file for you.

Regards,

Thanks Erik. We are looking at the API now and we could perhaps do something with that.

One other question: We run some jobs very often - once every 3 seconds in some cases.

There are times when one job will not have finished so the next job will not run and will not be queued. Can we know from the job stats how many times this occurs during a particular period? And can we get all job stats for a certain time frame?

You might want to use the logs in de Visualcron dir and use or create a log analyser for this.

I'm not sure if the log files are the best solution - the info there seems inconsistent and patchy for this approach.

I'll look into the API. Any other thoughts appreciated.
