Re: [foxboro] Unpublished Tip: Sysmon Alarms to a log file

You have several options:
1. use the command window FTP client (or one of the many graphical 
offerings) on the Windows box.  This should work out of the box, if you 
have networking set up correctly.  I presume the command-line client is 
scriptable like the Unix version (e.g., using .netrc and input redirection 
of a command file) but I'm not sure.  I've done this manually numerous 
times.

2. Use a FTP client on the AW, and install an FTP server on the Windows 
box.  Microsoft's free Services for Unix package probably includes one, as 
do Windows server versions as I recall.

3. Use other protocols (scp, CIFS/Samba, etc), but these will involve more 
setup effort.  I've used scp successfully.

I can't really help you much more without knowing more details about your 
network.

I forgot to mention that this system monitor log file grows without =
limit,
so be careful that:
A. you have got plenty of room on the /opt partition  (df -k /opt)
B. you should periodically monitor the size of this file and amount of =
free
space in the /opt partition.

I have run across an interesting yet unpublished feature of I/A, so I
thought I would pass it on.

Foxboro versions > 6.2 have a built in mechanism to log System Alarm
messages to an ASCII file on the Sysmon host AW.

Here is the procedure (perform on the sysmon host AW):
1. Create the directory /opt/fox/sysmgm/sysmon (do not confuse with
/usr/fox/sysmgm/sysmon)
2. cd /opt/fox/sysmgm/sysmon
3. touch smon_log

Any new System monitor alarms will now be appended to the smon_log file. =
I
have only tried it on AW51s, so I m unsure if this also works for AW70s.

Cool, eh?  I thought so.
