we are using MOM to monitor the organization including the Citrix servers. from time to time we need to start or stop various services ie licensing , sql etc this usually results in a flood of MOM alerts stating that server x has lost contact with the datastore or the license server etc. to work around this i have used mominfo.exe from the MOM 2005 resource kit with the syntax mominfo.exe /maintenancemode:1800 /Server:servername with 1800 equating to 30 mins. This works very well but is crude and i have multiple farms. can any one help me acheive the following ? a vbs app which presents a list of which farm datastore you want to work on or license server and then prompts how long you wish the maintenance mode duration ideally it would give a visual indicator of success / failure. it would also help in those rare occasions that datastore or license server is unavailable All help much appreciated This document is strictly confidential and is intended for use by the addressee unless otherwise indicated.
