Issue with Windows Script Monitor

system.office

Hi,

we are using a windows script monitor that check the TIME_WAIT connections of a remote server via netstat:

This is the script :

But we receive almost everytime a Statistic with the value 0, only when we using it inside the SAM application.

If we launch the script manually it works correctly.

Any idea?

Thanks.

The problem you're most likely running into is permissions/security. The reason why it works when run from your workstation or the SAM server itself is the script is using the permissions model of the user account you're logged in as. When the same script is run as a script monitor in SAM the script is run under the local system account of the machine which has no permission to access machines remotely. You will either need to add some form of impersonation to your script or leverage impersonation in the PowerShell script monitor to execute your script.
