Path Folder count monitoring

This is more than an alert.  You need to first build a monitor in SAM to check for the folder count.  There's an out of the box one that does it using PowerShell, but this is basically what it does.

$Folders = Get-ChildItem -path \\ServerName\SharedFolder\ChildPath -Recurse -Folder
if ( $Folders.Count -ge 2 ) {
    Write-Host "Message: We found $( $Folders.Count ) Folders - that's bad"
    Write-Host "Statistic: $( $Folders.Count )"
}
else {
    Write-Host "Message: We found $( $Folders.Count ) Folders - that's good"
    Write-Host "Statistic: $( $Folders.Count )"
}

Then you just need to alter the definition of the component so that if the statistic is 2 or more, it returns a critical status.

Then the alert is easy: Alert when a component name is "Whatever you called this component" and the status is "Critical" fire an alert.

sorry but i am looking for file count monitoring for latest date

i have prepared some thing but not able to print latest count with date

get-childitem '\\NJIOILMSSQLU01\ilmsdata\VendorExport\NachaExport' |
select @{n='Date';e={$_.LastWriteTime.ToShortDateString()}} |
Group-Object Date |
Format-Table Name, Count

IF ($Count -gt 2)
{
$Message = 'there are wrong/duplicate files generated'
Write-Host 'Statistic.Status: '2
Write-Host 'Message.Status: '$Message
}
ELSE
{
$Message = 'there are no wrong/duplicate files generated'
Write-Host 'Statistic.Status: '1
Write-Host 'Message.Status: '$Message
}

Are you only looking for files after "today" or in the last 24 hours or something else?  Please be as specific as possible so we can help craft this.

for current date file count
Name Count
5/31/2022 2

So at 12:01 AM, this might return 0 files - just so you are aware.

$Today = Get-Date | Select-Object -Property Date | Get-Date
$Path = "\\Path\To\Check"
$Files = Get-ChildItem -Path $Path -Recurse -File -Force -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue | Where-Object { $_.LastWriteTime -ge $Today }
Write-Host "Message: Found $( $Files.Count ) files in $( $Path ) created on $( $Today.ToString("MM/dd/yyyy") )"
Write-Host "Statistic: $( $Files.Count )"

Message: Found 1836 files in \\Path\To\Check created on 06/01/2022
Statistic: 1836

So at 12:01 AM, this might return 0 files - just so you are aware.

$Today = Get-Date | Select-Object -Property Date | Get-Date
$Path = "\\Path\To\Check"
$Files = Get-ChildItem -Path $Path -Recurse -File -Force -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue | Where-Object { $_.LastWriteTime -ge $Today }
Write-Host "Message: Found $( $Files.Count ) files in $( $Path ) created on $( $Today.ToString("MM/dd/yyyy") )"
Write-Host "Statistic: $( $Files.Count )"

Message: Found 1836 files in \\Path\To\Check created on 06/01/2022
Statistic: 1836

Thanks 
Ill test and get back to you

its showing wrong 

2 file available there

getting wrong result

I wonder if it's a permission issue.  Can we try this script instead?

$Today = Get-Date | Select-Object -Property Date | Get-Date
$Path = "\\Path\To\Check"

$AllFiles = Get-ChildItem -Path $Path -Recurse -File -Force -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue
$Files = $AllFiles | Where-Object { $_.LastWriteTime -ge $Today }

Write-Host "Message.All: Found $( AllFiles.Count) files in $( $Path )"
Write-Host "Statistic.All: $( AllFiles.Count)"

Write-Host "Message.Today: Found $( $Files.Count ) files in $( $Path ) created on $( $Today.ToString("MM/dd/yyyy") )"
Write-Host "Statistic.Today: $( $Files.Count )"

If both results show 0, then your account can't read the files.

Hi still some error in script not getting right result, file is there still showing 0 count, count should be one

Did you try the follow-up script to see if it's a permission issue?

Yes, its working on another server.

but in last 24 hrs. script has some issue, as its count last and latest file 
suppose one files created on 16th June by 4 AM and one files created on 17th June by 4 AM, so it count 2 file, so i have converted into minutes, for workaround, can you share script who count those file only created on same date. 

Just change the LastWriteTime in the first script to CreationTime.

Hi,

we need script to check current date count only

see below script showing 0 count, however we have 1 file for same date see on next screen short

This is probably a permission issue.  Does the SAM WMI account you are using have sufficient access to read that page?  On the previous page do you have the configuration setup to run in Local or Remote host mode?
