Enterprise Vault

EVSVR is a Windows command-line utility for Enterprise Vault storage reporting and verification.

I have been now using EVSVR for over 5 months, it is a great tool and would recommend every one to use it.  I run it daily, and report on the past 7 days.

This helps me for two reasons:
■ I will find out straight away should i have any issues
■ If I am required to ever run Verification on a certain Data set It wont take me months to run as its already been verified.

One problem I have found with running this daily is the amount of manual work involved.  I have therefore created a script which you can simply set up as a scheduled task.

The script does the following:
■ Runs EVSVR
■ cleans the reports up (removes the messy time stamps ect)
■ zips all the output files up
■ Emails the relevant admins with the reports (The body contains the results if any have faild - no need to trawl the logs)
■ Writes an entry...

So a while ago I wrote a simple vbs to query MSMQ as the PerfMon counters are not reliable.  There is an updated script I did some ware just need to dig it out.

Option Explicit
Dim MSMQApp ' As MsmqApplication
Set MSMQApp = CreateObject("MSMQ.MSMQApplication")

Dim strComputer

If Wscript.Arguments.Count = 0 Then
                WScript.Echo "usage: msmq.vbs server_name queue "
                WScript.Echo " "
                WScript.Echo "e.g. cscript msmq.vbs tus1ev1idxpin01 queue"
Else
                strComputer = Wscript.Arguments(0)
END If

On Error Resume Next...
