• Invoke VMScript and escape from the variables

  Hello, VMTN,.

  I have what is probably a simple question.  I have a set of functions that are passed to two variables; the name of a virtual computer and NIC to enable\disable in Windows in this VM.  The name of this NETWORK adapter has spaces, which is the Network Interface 4.  The service continues to set the command to inject as:

  $cmd = "game of the name of the interface c:\windows\system32\netsh.exe interface =""$NICtoEnable" "admin = ENABLED"

  It then calls the cmdlt invoke-vmscript as follows:

  ScriptType bat - invoke-VMScript - VM $VMName GuestCredential - $GuestCredential - $cmd ScriptText

  and it does not return the output, but I get "Invalid parameter" in return.  What that tells me, that is it runs netsh in the virtual machine, but on parameters is not set correctly.  I don't know that it is because I have not properly escaped the $NICtoEnable variable in $cmd of the GET passed to-ScriptText.  I also tried, instead of double quotes, using single quotes ('... ") does not.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated and thanks in advance.

  Best,

  @dboftlp

  Try your $cmd like this

  $cmd = "c:\windows\system32\netsh.exe interface set interface name=" + '"' + $NICtoEnable + '"' + " admin=enabled"
  

  The trick is to move the quotes around the name of the NIC, where single quotes around the double quotes.

• MaxL Script and batch file

  I have a MaxL script that exports data from different cubes Level0. I have a batch file to call this script at daily intervals.
  
  I want to name something out of different every day (preferably NAMEmmdd type format). I know that I can add a rename or move the lot but wonder if there is a MaxL method that will allow me to export to another name?
  
  Current MaxL is simply
  export database APP. Level0 data_file DB database ' ' $Arborpath\am1119.txt "";
  
  Ideas or direction to go learn the answer?
  
  T,
  J

  Hello

  You can enter variables in maxl, so you the calling batch file can pass in a variable that contains the name of the file with the current date...

  For example, you have a batch file
  essmsh c:\temp\export.mxl "C:\temp\output%DATE:~3,2%%DATE:~0,2%.txt".

  If that was run today it would pass in ' C:\temp\output1118.txt

  Now in your maxl you just refer to the variable with

  export data from database sample.basic Level0 to data_file $1;

  $1 refers to the variable which has been adopted, the 1 being the position, in which it was adopted.

  See you soon

• Dynamic object and Batch files

  At the moment I am creating hundreds of icons in the same form and style. essentially, I made more than 100 icons and then realized that I wanted to add a high effecton of each of them. I already have the layer how I want and in fact a dynamic object. I was wondering if there is any combination of actions I can take to save and then apply as a batch operation for not having to manually correct each icon.

  Run command via invoke vmscript and it works perfectly on a linux VM what follows, but executed via vmscript invoke the output is empty.

• There is a possibility to run Labview projects or to set them off from a batch file or if the exist and the ability to control labview or run it from an external application?

  Hi, I m a bit new in LabVIEW and I'd like to ask a few questions...

  -There is a possibility to run Labview projects or to set them off from a batch file or if the exist and the ability to control labview or run it from an external application?

  -One API PI or raspberry beaglebone exists for LabVIEW?

  -Power supply Wich can recommend you control with LabVIEW? (some chip solution witn 0 - 30v / 0 - 3A DC)

  Thank you very much for your advice!

  Best regards

  Elena

  Elena,

  I know raspberry, so no comment on that.

  For the rest:

  -Do you want to create tools for developers? If so, we must look in the API of project VI and VI server. If this isn't the case, please compile your application LV as executable and call this one using a batch file.

  -LV prefer specific supplies. LV is a programming language. There are several power supply providers (including OR) which provide directly the LV API for their power supplies. So, essentially, the approach is:

  1. choose food that serves your needs.

  2. check if the power supply has a standard interface for programming (such as Ethernet, GPIB, or if the power supply is PXI, is already providing a programming interface!)

  3. check if the LV API (so-called "instrument driver") is available for the device. In the case of a PXI system, get you a device driver (for example NI DCPower).

  4. check if the LV samples are available (for example in the Finder for example LV once you have installed the driver).

  Hello

  HOW?

  Well make HP machines, I'm a.  I wrote the code on mine, I ran and tweaked.  Since it is part of the operating system provided with my camera, it must be relevant.

  So when someone asks what is/where or how to find MAC address, he covered (0 GETMAC).

  If someone reports their Wi - Fi dropping out after a short time a possible solution in the list (4 WINSOCK

  You want to know your IP... (1 GET IPs)

  Trial material basis, ping your loopback (6 PING_LO).

  etc etc.

  Then as a sticky it could potentially help solve quite a few queries.  In the same way as The Great Deku Tree posted a sticky on the "Common corrects problems of wireless connectivity", to get ahead of the game by offering something that the OP can try for themselves.

• LEARNING OF BATCH FILES AND WINDOWS CANNOT FIND ' C:\DOCUMENTS'__

  Technical info: Windows XP Pro SP 2. Microsft Office home and Student 2007. AVG Free 9.0.

  Hello

  I am trying to learn the basics of Batch files and am confused right now. I can get a. BAT file to produce a BACK screen and play with some commands, but when I try to get a. BAT file to open a MS Word 07 Doc I get the following message

  Windows cannot find 'C:\Documents '. It stops at Documents. When infact the entire address would include Documents\testdoc or something else. I use Notepad to write the. BAT files.

  If I go into the file target itself and copy and paste the address in XP search utility, it locates the file (with a full name), instantly. But if I do the same copy and paste, paste the address directly in. BAT file for example: C:\windows, DEPARTURE etc etc... It is just straight up with the above mentioned error message.

  All advice forge kindly appreciated. My ultimate goal is to learn how to create a Batch file that will erase the files in different directories about five or six on the click of a button.

  Thanks Mick.

  I'm not an expert in writing .bat files. If no one else is here, you should post on the MSDN forums or there may be a group of newsgroups for .bat file writing.

• Problems with batch files and command.

  I'm not too familiar with the support of the PC, but can follow the operational base.

  I had a problem with my windows vista machine.  Whenever I started, there was a poster on my screen batch file.  This was a company script provided departmental support of PC does not recognize.  It was as if the batch file has been stuck in a mode where it would display only instead of execution.  After a bit of back & comes with our IT supports people, they agreed to look into the problem.  They went under launch programs to ensure that batch files have been executed with the cmd program.  Now, it displays a MS-DOS window whenever I start.  I don't know why this is so.

  As my company IT Department is unable to help, I hope someone can give me some advice.

  Is there a place to check to find out WHY this dos window appears every time and how I could fix this situation.  I can't that hope that corporate batch files are run correctly.

  Thank you

  Hello Ken,

  1. Since when are you facing this problem?

  2. the recent changes to the computer?

  3. is the computer on the domain by chance?

  If so, the question you have posted is related to Windows in adomain of work environment and would be better suited to the TechNet community. Please visit the link below to find a community that will support what ask you

  If not,

  I suggest you to put the computer in aclean boot state .

  To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows Vista by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

  See the link below for more details:

• Simple two program start and kill the Batch file

  Hello all :)

  (Today) I am new to the script of the machine. It is something that I put in place and will try tomorrow.

  CD /d "C:\path".
  Debut.bat

  CD /d "H:\path".
  Beginning Program.exe

  : CHECK
  ping localhost 10 1 n > ZERO
  AV TASKLIST /fi "IMAGENAME eq program.exe" 2 > & 1 > NULL
  IF ERRORLEVEL 1 GOTO CHECK

  Taskkill /f /im cmd.exe/t

  If all goes well, .bat runs. A program will be executed. CMD will then search for program.exe until not found (released), then close the CMD.

  In this case program.exe does not work with start/wait

  I wonder if the check will slow down my machine if worked for a few hours.

  I use Windows 7 x 64, SSD, 16 GB RAM and AMD 8350.

  Considering the insertion of a small time-out, but seems ridiculous.

  Is there a way to slow down the check, but always close immediately if program.exe is closed? Other alternatives? Thanks :)

  The original manuscript of lots above is more suited for a loop that could sleep until needed, thus reducing CPU cycles

  -> You can easily find it by yourself:
  1. launch the batch file

  2. start the Task Manager.

  3. click on the performance tab.

  4. Add the "CPU Time" column.

  5. sort the list next to the name of the task.

  6. take note of the time CPU for cmd.exe.

  7. check once again the batch file run for an hour.

  I bet that time CPU will be negligible. I expect the timeout function to be very frugal. Tasklist.exe takes more time, but it runs only once every 20 seconds.

  Run a batch file in Task Scheduler

  Hello ITGIRL17,

  Thanks for posting on the Microsoft answers Forum.

  Configure your task under your administrator account.
  Then go to the folder with the batch file and ADD on control for the folder administrator permissions and each of the files in batches.
  If the batch files write data, then the target for the task should ALSO have all explicit permissions.
  Now try to run the Task Scheduler task.

  Also check the information from the following link and look specifically at Brian Vandemark Sommaire steps on 2 September.
