How do I send a simple windows command to a server using Discovery probes?

[Ray Vance]

Hey everyone, I am relatively new to setting up probes and sensors for Discovery. I have been reviewing the OOB probes and as part of learning I have a very simple use case.

I want to create a very simple probe I can run whenever to connect to a Windows server and run a basic command like: "dir c:\" and return the results. I don' t want to use a PowerShell script if I can avoid it. How do I do it?

I tried something similar to running an "arp" command using the OOB probe "Windows - Network ARP Table". I can run that against a sample server with no issues. But when I try to run my customized one, I get the error:

<results error="Unable to find script(s) specified in parameters. Make sure the script(s) associated with probe are passed down properly." probe_time="0" result_code="82"><result error="Unable to find script(s) specified in parameters. Make sure the script(s) associated with probe are passed down properly."/>

Not sure what I am doing wrong.

Any help is appreciated. FYI - I have only been delving into the Discovery space recently, so please be patient.

Hi @Ray Vance,

Just a Suggestion.

As you mentioned you are exploring Discovery space recently I would even suggest to invest your time in understanding Patterns rather than Probes and Sensors.

As Service Now migrated to Patterns for discovery from long time and recommends the same.
