11.3.3 Considerations for executing commands from JP1/IM - View

You can remotely execute a command on a JP1/IM agent from JP1/IM - View. The following types of commands can be executed:

On a UNIX host: UNIX commands and shell scripts

On a Windows host: Executable files (.com and .exe), batch files (.bat), and JP1/Script script files (.spt)
Commands that require interactive operation or open a window, non-terminating commands, and commands that shut down JP1/Base cannot be executed in this way.

For details, see the following references:

Reference note

Commands that directly shut down the OS cannot be executed from JP1/IM - View. However, you can use JP1/Power Monitor to shut down agents.

(1) Notes

The length of the commands that can be executed from JP1/IM - View is restricted by the system in which JP1/IM and JP1/Base are running.
When the command execution path from JP1/IM - View includes a host (including a manager to which JP1/IM - View connects or the target host on which the command is executed) that is running JP1/IM or JP1/Base version 6 or 7, the command must not exceed 1,024 bytes. (When all the hosts on the path are running JP1/IM and JP1/Base version 8 or later, you can specify commands to a maximum length of 4,096 bytes.) When version 6 and version 7 products coexist in the system, command execution fails if the specified command exceeds 1,024 bytes. The command is not executed, and message KAVB2623-E appears in the Message field of the Log area in the Execute Command window.

Example 1:

When the managers to which JP1/IM - View connects are running JP1/IM and JP1/Base version 8, but JP1/Base on the target host is version 7, the maximum command length is 1,024 bytes.

Example 2:

When JP1/IM and JP1/Base on the manager and JP1/Base on the target host are all version 8, the maximum command length is 4,096 bytes.
