Evening.

I'm doing monitoring with eValid and it works fine, but now and then my playback fails.

What do you recommend/suggest to fix my issue.

Thanks

Thanks for asking EdPaskey.

There are many different ways for a playback to FAIL.

What eValid does is provide commands that let you designate a "recovery script" in case your current script encounters unexpected states.

You have four types of such states (TYPE):

Alarm
Error
Timeout
Warning

In addition you have three different responses (ACTION):

Email
GoScript
SendFile

Generally, the command format is

On (TYPE) (ACTION)

SO there are nine combinations in all.

For example, "OnAlarmEmail" will, when an Alarm is issued send a email to a particular specified email address.

Maybe even better "OnTimeoutGoScript" will transfer control of playback to the named "recovery script".

Here is a worked example of how this fits together:

And, if all else fails you can have a recovery script that runs a system command via "SystemCall" which could kill off the entire monitoring process.
