Geneos - How can I capture username in a command?

In your command you will have to add an argument xpath: /geneos/client/runtimeParameters/@Username. This will get the username and you may pass this as a parameter.

There are a few XPaths available to capture info of the Active Console, they are:

  • /geneos/client/parameters/@HostName
  • /geneos/client/runtimeParameters/@Username (Username only without domain name)
  • /geneos/client/runtimeParameters/@Domain (Domain name)

 

As an example, below is a Putty command using the username to connect to a Unix server:

<command name="GW2_Putty_with_username">
<targets>
<target>/geneos/gateway/directory/probe[wild(rparam(&quot;OS&quot;),&quot;Linux*&quot;)]/managedEntity[wild(@name,&quot;nysupsvr*&quot;)]</target>
<target>/geneos/gateway/directory/probe[wild(rparam(&quot;OS&quot;),&quot;S*&quot;)]/managedEntity</target>
</targets>
<userCommand>
<type>script</type>
<runLocation>client</runLocation>
<args>
<arg>
<static>&quot;C:\Program Files\PuTTY\putty.exe&quot;</static>
</arg>
<arg>
<xpath>ancestor::probe/parameters/@HostName</xpath>
</arg>
<arg>
<static>-l</static>
</arg>
<arg>
<xpath>/geneos/client/runtimeParameters/@Username</xpath>
</arg>
</args>
</userCommand>
</command>
