Windows-Task-Scheduler discovery

Hello everyone,

 

In daily operation, our application uses the windows task scheduler to start various processes automatically.

I'm looking for a way to discover these scheduled jobs and save them in the CMDB as part of the application.

 

Since these jobs are only executed at certain times, I cannot go through the process.

The structure and information of the windows-tasks are saved in xml-files on the server.

The script to parse this information already exists.

 

What would be a viable way to save this jobs to the CMDB by a discovery run?

 

Thanks

Thomas

How many such applications are having such scheduled tasks? Just to see if one time manual work is ok or we should do it using Discovery.

 

Using Discovery - U need to extend the Windows Server Infra Pattern and add Powershell scripts to read scheduled windows task.

thanks for your reply.

Currently, there are already more than 100 customer applications and there are a lot more to come.
It therefore has to be done with a custom pattern. I have already built an application pattern, which executes powershell on the server and parses all the informations on the mid but I'm not able to create multiple CIs from one process.

That is the point where I am stuck at the moment.

What is the name of the pattern you are refering in your message?
