The Script page defines script to be run.
Name for this step (optional)
Optionally, specify a descriptive name for the step. Otherwise the name of the target script is used as the description for the step.
Description/Notes
Enter any extended descriptive information or notes for this step. There is no limit on the length of the text.
Script to Execute
Your script may be either an internal script (stored within adTempus and optionally shared with other jobs) or an external script (an external script file). The way the script is executed, and the options available to it, are the same either way.
Execute a script stored in adTempus
Select an existing script or create a new one. See the Scripts topic for information on working with internal scripts.
Execute a script stored in an external file
Specify the script file to execute. You must also specify the Language of the script. The language must be a scripting language recognized by the Window Scripting Host on the server By "server" we mean the computer on which the adTempus service is running. Note that the list only lists VBScript and JScript as predefined values, even if other scripting languages are installed. You must type in the name of the script language if you are using a language other than one of these.

If you use the ... button to browse for the target script, be aware that you are browsing the file system of the client By "client" we mean the computer on which the adTempus Console is running.. If the server By "server" we mean the computer on which the adTempus service is running is a different computer this is not going to produce the result you want. Be sure that the target you specify is valid on the server. |
Allow script to show a user interface
Check this option if your script needs to show a user interface. If the option is not checked, the scripting host will not permit a user interface to be displayed.
Maximum execution time
Specify the maximum time (in seconds) that the script should be allowed to run. (This feature prevents against "runaway" scripts.)
If you do not want to set a limit, specify a value of 0. This will cause the scripting host to monitor execution of the script and abort it if the script host detects a problem.
If you are running an internal script, the value you specify here overrides the value specified on the Script's properties.
