System updates weekly

Thomas Hayes

Hi everyone
Probley a really simple question but I want to have
my boxes start sending me copies of there system usage and lamp runtime weekly. What if any would be the best way to go about this in the program? I was thinking of using i-monitor to send the info. Then there is the question of triggering the email to send.

I would think you could use the clock for the trigger

I use emailout.axi for status. may or may not be available still. LMK and I will post copy if needed.

For triggering you could test a send flag for true, mid string of date for 01 (first of month), time for 00:00; then do your action, set send flag false. Then reset send flag = true when time = 00:01. i have sample to post if desired. I think someone else has posted tighter way to do this with timeline, do a search for timeline in forums.

You could use i-Schedule to trigger the email though perhaps that has overhead you don't want. It has the added benefit of synching the time to a time server as well.... well if the network setup allows that sort of thing.
