PowerShell Script to monitor strings in Log file
Hello,
I have written a script to monitor certain strings in a Log file. The script works fine on the server itself but not via opmanager.
Please help.
param
(
[Parameter(Position=1)]
[DateTime]$StartDate = (Get-Date -Hour 0 -Minute 0 -Second 0 -Millisecond 0),
[Parameter(Position=2)]
[DateTime]$EndDate = (Get-Date -Hour 23 -Minute 59 -Second 59 -Millisecond 999),
[Parameter(Position=3)]
$FilePath = "c:\qp_data.log",
[Parameter(Position=4)]
$Strings = @("Getting", "tcp")
)
$data = Get-Content $filepath # logfile path
write-host '------------------------------------------------------'
write-host '------------------------------------------------------'
write-host Total lines read from file $data.count # printing stats of
write-host '------------------------------------------------------'
$match_string = ''
$IsMatchingRecordFound = ''
#looping throgh all lines
foreach ($line in $data)
{
#fetching date and converting into string format
[DateTime]$date = [DateTime]::ParseExact($line.substring(1, 21), "MMddyyyy-HH:mm:ss:fff", (New-Object System.Globalization.CultureInfo "en-US"))
#comparing date date with start and end
if (($date -gt $StartDate) -and ($date -lt $EndDate))
{
#matching string and array from file data
$match_string = $line | Select-String -Pattern $Strings -SimpleMatch
$match_string
if([string]::IsNullOrEmpty($match_string))
{
}
else
{
$IsMatchingRecordFound="Yes"
}
}
$match_string=''
}
IF([string]::IsNullOrEmpty($IsMatchingRecordFound))
{
write-host 'No Records Found.'
}
$empty_StringMessage
write-host '------------------------------------------------------'
write-host '------------------------------------------------------'
When i run through Opmanager i get an error

When i run through Opmanager i get an error
D:\ManageEngine\OpManager\temp\OpManager_1201_1405533564435.ps1 : Cannot proces s argument transformation on parameter 'StartDate'. Cannot convert value "qpswe b1-qa.srsi-qps.net" to type "System.DateTime". Error: "The string was not recog nized as a valid DateTime. There is a unknown word starting at index 0." At line:1 char:35
I believe that As far as the error message, it seems that the Opmanager is passing "qpswe
b1-qa.srsi-qps.net" as the first argument. It should pass no arguments to use the defaults.
