File age monitor on ftp server

aussery

Good morning,

I'm trying to build a file age monitor in PowerShell on an FTP server given a URL, login and password.

Is that something I can do with SolarWinds? If so, how?

There is nothing out of the box, but you could build out a PowerShell monitor using this FTP client. I did a quick test, and it's possible to pull back the last modifed date, so I think that's the way to go.

PS C:\temp> $folders = Get-FTPChildItem -Session $Session

PS C:\temp> $folders[0].ModifiedDate

06-21-14 09:59PM

Did anyone figure this out? I'm trying to do the same thing and it appears the Get-FTPChildItem returns the modified date as a string and not an actual date.
