What does it do?

Is a VBS batch file that has been also set up as a scheduled task (with message stops removed) and it copies SPECIFIC master dat files of Ed's from TMSX & MedTMS and also any exported csv files from Ed's (raw csv dat files), from data processor C drive to folder on X. This batch file can also be run manually. For more details go to: Eds_and_raw_push_to_x_manual.vbs

Template:Discussion

  • Is that a good idea? If the files are copied when the program is currently open, will their status be defined? Ttenbergen 14:24, 2014 April 30 (CDT)
  • Rather than scheduling this, a better option might be to actually launch the program with a batch file that copies data upon closing. That is if the batch file will properly halt while the program is open. Ttenbergen 14:24, 2014 April 30 (CDT)

Where does it live?

Data Processor's desktop.

How often does it run?

Runs DAILY at 2130 hrs

Password

This task has a password (data processors network login), so that if processor logs off her computer the task will still run.

potential problems

The issue with logging off is that password changes can cause issues. If Pagasa has to change her network password, she will have to remember to update the password to same one for this task.

  • Locking the computer is the best approach. Bcloutier 17:53, 2014 April 29 (CDT)
