How to use Start-Job?

Hello folks,
I am trying to setup a simple Start-Job command. This basic command works for me and copies the file correctly.
Start-Job -Scriptblock {Copy-Item -Path \\192.168.32.25\share\butterfly.jpg -Destination c:\test\ -Recurse -Verbose}
However, it does not work when I try using variable like this.
$source = "\\192.168.32.25\share\butterfly.jpg"
$target = "c:\test\"
Start-Job -Scriptblock {Copy-Item -Path $source -Destination $target -Recurse -Verbose}
Anyone have suggestions for getting this to work with variables?
Thanks,
romatlo

Basically, look at using -ArgumentList:

Using Start-Job to launch multiple SSH sessions and esxtop?

Hello folks,
I am trying to start an esxtop session on multiple esx servers at the same time.
I started trying using Start-Job thinking it would help do it asynchronously.
The script I have below works on one host so far, but need suggestions to repeat it for multiple hosts, thinking by looping through changing the $i each time?
Checking if anyone would have comment?
$i = 1
$seconds = 5
$iterations = 2
$esxtopfile = "esxtop$i_$((Get-Date).ToString('MMddyyy-hhmm')).csv"
$ComputerName = "z420esxi$i.domain.net"
# Start an esxtop session using SSH.net and start an esxtop command - module already loaded.
$sb = {New-SshSession -ComputerName $($args[0]) -KeyFile C:\esxi-key-openssh.key -Username root
Invoke-SshCommand -ComputerName $($args[0]) -command "esxtop -d $($args[1]) -a -b -n $($args[2]) > /tmp/$($args[3])"
Start-Job -ScriptBlock $sb -ArgumentList $ComputerName,$seconds,$iterations,$esxtopfile | Wait-Job | Receive-Job

A: Using Start-Job to launch multiple SSH sessions and esxtop?

You're starting for a job, waiting for that job to complete and then finally receiving that job
before allowing anything else to happen with your script.
In other words, if you had some code after the Start-Job line, it would not be executed until the job had completed and you had received the job, which partially negates the benefits of using a job to begin with (specially bearing in mind you don't have
a form).
The way to achieve what you're after is to start all jobs at the same time, one per ESX host, and then finally to wait for all jobs and collect all jobs at the end.
Here's a quick example that starts 5 jobs and wait for all of them to complete before receiving the results.
$jobs = @()
$jobs += 1..5 | ForEach-Object {Start-Job -ScriptBlock {Sleep $args[0]; "I just slept for $($args[0]) seconds"} -ArgumentList $_}
[void] (Wait-Job $jobs)
Receive-Job $jobs
Notice that each of the subsequent jobs will take longer and longer to run, with the first being the fastest and the last the slowest. Still, I'm waiting for *all* jobs to complete before performing the Receive-Jobs on all of them at the same time.

How to use "Start synchronous Call" to run a subVi and keep timeout event in Main vi still running?

Hi, All
I have a application need periodically check an instrument status and I put it in the "Timeout Event" in main vi. I also need call some subVis for configuration etc. Somehow when I called those subvi, the Timeout event in my main vi was not running. Then I use " Start Asynchronous Call" function to call the subVis. Turns out it works fine with some subvis without return value, but not as expected with "return value-needed" subvis.
I attached a simple test, my main vi call two dlg subvis: AboutDlg.vi and SettingsDlg.vi. In the timeout event, I just use a counter for simulation. When you run it, you can see the counter keep counting when the AboutDlg.vi was called, but stopped when SettingsDlg.vi was called.
As I remembered, someone suggested to use Queue to pass return value, but I don't know how to implement it here.
Anyone has any suggestions about it?
Thank you very much.

Try playing with this - I have modified your code to poke a Q in there.
You will want to change the clusters to more useful datatypes (maybe enum and variant so you can unbundle variants depending on enum input), you will want to type def the clusters to make it easier to maintain and you will NEED to handle the sitaution where the called VI is left open on program close - i couldn't be bothered as this was not your immediate issue)
Hope this give you some Ideas - totalyy untested but should work.

PowerShell using start job to run multiple code blocks at the same time

I will be working with many 1000’s of names in a list preforming multiple function on each name for test labs.
I notice when it is running the functions on each name I am using almost no CPU or memory. That led me to research can I run multiple threads at once in a PowerShell program. That lead me to articles suggesting start-job would do just want I am looking
for.
As a test I put this together. It is a simple action as an exercise to see if this is indeed the best approach. However it appears to me as if it is still only running the actions on one name at a time.
Is there a way to run multiple blocks of code at once?
Thanks
Start-Job {
$csv1 = (Import-Csv "C:\Copy AD to test Lab\data\Usergroups1.csv").username
foreach ($name1 in $csv1) { Write-Output "Job1 $name1"}
Start-Job {
$csv2 = (Import-Csv "C:\Copy AD to test Lab\data\Usergroups2.csv").username
foreach ($name2 in $csv2) { Write-Output " Job2 $name2"}

You say your testing shows that you are using very little cpu or memory in processing each name, which suggests that processing a single name is a relatively trivial task.
You need to understand that using a background job is going to spin up another instance of powershell, and if you're going to do that per name what used to require a relatively insignificant amount of memory is going to take around 60 MB.
Background jobs are not really well suited for multi-threading short-running, trivial tasks. The overhead of setting up and tearing down the job session can be more than the task itself.
Background jobs are good for long-running tasks. For multi-threading short, trivial tasks runspaces or a workflow would probably be a better choice.

How to use Start Task Group for Workflow Interface

Hi all,
anyone who can tell me how to use the Interface IFWFTSKGRP (Start Task Group for Workflow Interface)?
As far as I understood the documentation it can be used to restrict the selection of workflows that can be started in the Generic Object Services. But the question is how to implement it.
Best regards,
Carsten

Hi, Carsten,
(probably it's a bit too late to post an answer after 3 years , but I'll post it in case someone else needs it)
You should implement GetTaskGroup method.
The code should return id of the task group (otype TG, mantained in PFTC) that holds the list of workflow definitions.
Here is a sample implementation. It's taken from FORMABSENC business object. It belongs to SAP demo workflow "Notification of Absence". I suppose it should be present in most systems and you can see it in action.
begin_method gettaskgroup changing container.
DATA: taskgroup LIKE rhobjects-object.
*- set task group
taskgroup = 'TG70000023'.
*- set result
swc_set_element container result taskgroup.
end_method.

Receive location of job after using Start-job command

Hey all so I have a script that installs software on remote machines. I've recently started using Psexec to start installing as the System account, however now I am not able to keep track of the location that Psexec is running on. The old method I could
call the variable I stored the job in "$job.location" and receive the location but now when I do this I get localhost.
Here's the code:
###Software Install methods
if($checkboxUserInstall.Checked){
#Uses users creds to install software
foreach($item in $computersForInstall){
$installArrayJobs += Invoke-Command -ComputerName $item -ScriptBlock {cmd /c "C:\Package\$($args[0])"} -ArgumentList $softwareInstallerName -AsJob -Credential $cred
}else{
#New PsExec Install method
$installString = { PsExec.exe "\\$($args[0])" -s -accepteula "C:\Package\$($args[1])" }
Write-Host "Starting $($software[$index][0]) Installs.."
foreach($item in $computersForInstall){
$installArrayJobs += Start-Job $installString -ArgumentList $item, $softwareInstallerName
I think I understand why, the top invoke command is actually invoking that command on the remote machine so it is able to keep track of the location. The bottom is using Psexec to invoke the command and cannot keep track of it.
So long story short is there anyway I can keep track of the location while using the bottom Psexec method and the Start-Job command?
Thanks.

You can leverage the -Name property of Start-Job to keep track of the server the job was for.
###Software Install methods
if($checkboxUserInstall.Checked){
#Uses users creds to install software
foreach($item in $computersForInstall){
$installArrayJobs += Invoke-Command -ComputerName $item -ScriptBlock {cmd /c "C:\Package\$($args[0])"} -ArgumentList $softwareInstallerName -AsJob -Credential $cred
}else{
#New PsExec Install method
$installString = { PsExec.exe "\\$($args[0])" -s -accepteula "C:\Package\$($args[1])" }
Write-Host "Starting $($software[$index][0]) Installs.."
foreach($item in $computersForInstall){
$installArrayJobs += Start-Job $installString -Name $item -ArgumentList $item, $softwareInstallerName
Now, instead of the default Job1, Job2, etc. job names, each job will have a name that matches the server the job was for.

How to use "start" and "duration" with HLS stream

Hi all,
is it possible to use "start" and "stop" with HLS stream like rtmp stream?
If yes, how?
thanks in advance.

Hi,
This is completely player side fucntionality you are asking for. However, I guess default player that comes on safari (iPad), quicktime has the player timeline with stop and start option. But if not, you can create your custom player using exposed api of AVPlayer. Check-out AVPlayer api's.
FMS, by nature of protocol will respect the request to get the data(in case of client-play-start) and will not automatically push the data to the client if not asked for by the client (as in case of client-play-stop).
Thanks

How to use Start Routine for this requirement

Hello,
I am having data in 2 ods and should load that data into cube, but there isn't any common object in both the ods's. I need to analyze based on these ods objects. so I thought of pulling some objects into 1ods which are used for analysis and added some objects to ods and cube. Now I have to write a start routine in update rules to fetch the data from the info objects which are present in another ods. Can any one help me in this?
Rajesh.

The VI "start_and_reference_trigger.vi" can detect both start and reference trigger in my system and they start data acquisition.
It starts data acquisition when both start and reference triggers are input.
However what I would like to do is:
1. Sampling rate at 200MHz with record length 1500 with one channel.
2. Receive the start trigger (i.e. 50Hz)
3. Receive the reference trigger (i.e. 50kHz)
4. For every reference trigger, I would like to acquire the data, i.e. acquiring 1500 data for each 100 reference trigger (not with the combination with the start trigger)
Start trigger: _|^|_________________________________________
Ref   trigger:______|__|__|__|__|__|__|__|__|__|__|__|__|__|__|____
                                  ^    ^    ^    ^   ^   ^   ^   ^    ^   ^   ^   ^    ^   ^
                                 trigger timings that I would like to acquire
With the sample VI "start_and...", I found that it acquires when both start and reference trigger comes and the data acquisition is only after the one reference trigger.
I hope my explanation is understandable and I can have a solution soon.

Hi Tom 1225,
Thanks for posting on Discussion Forum. Based on your statement, I guess, what you want PCI-5124 to do is what general bench-top type oscilloscopes do. To realize that functionality, at the end of each sampling of a record length, PCI-5124 has to rearm its trigger for its next sampling. The amount of "rearm time" is listed in "trigger" section on 5124 manual, said that the rearm time is 10[us] when TDC is ON and 2[us] when TDC is OFF. So, we have to keep in mind that, if one waveform of measured signal is shorter than 2[us] (TDC OFF), more than one waveform may fail to kick the trigger, because 5124 still rearming its trigger.
I made two samples and attached them on this post.
In "Sample SW Timing Trigger.vi", trigger rearm occurs at software timing, when the time NI-Scope Start function is called. In "Sample HW Timing Trigger.vi", trigger rearm occurs at hardware timing. As seen on the block diagram, for a hardware timing trigger rearm, the number in "number of records" of horizontal setting function should be equal to the times of the trigger-based measurements. If you have any question on my sample VIs, feel free to ask. If my post resolves your problem, please click on the green "解決策に決定" icon on my post.

PowerShell - Start-Job - Synchronised Array list

Hi all,
I am trying to write a script using start-job against a list of machines. The script is to query a target machine event log using get-winevent cmdlet. I supply the whole code that queries the eventlog in a scriptblock. In order to capture the output (one
psobject for each of the scriptblock jobs) I am trying to use a synchronised arraylist. I do not know the full details of how to use the synchronised arraylist but I have put together the below script (by referring to some of the online articles). But the
script does not work as intended. The individual scriptblocks do not seem to be referring to the global arraylist variable while appending the results.
Would any of you be able to shed any light on it?
Please note, the script without the PowerShell Jobs works fine(that is linear execution which is really time-consuming). Also, even with using psJobs, the script works when I try to dump the result of each job into a csv from within the job itself. But I
want to avoid this situation because due to the asynchronous execution there might be contention for the csv by more than one jobs at the same time. Hence I want to use the synchronised array list.
$InputCSV = "$(Split-Path $SCRIPT:MyInvocation.MyCommand.Path -parent)\backupexec.csv"
$OutputCSV = "$(Split-Path $SCRIPT:MyInvocation.MyCommand.Path -parent)\Reports\BackupExec_Output_$(Get-Date -format "ddMMyyyy")_$((Get-Date).DayOfWeek).csv"
$OutputArray = [System.Collections.ArrayList]::Synchronized((New-Object System.Collections.ArrayList))
$counter=1
$jobs=@{};
$jobcounter=0;
Import-CSV $InputCSV | ForEach {
$Comp_Name=$_.ServerName;
$Counter+=1;
$Scriptblock={
Try {
$IsthereAnyResult= @()
$IsthereAnyResult= Get-WinEvent -ComputerName $Using:Comp_Name -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue -FilterHashTable @{LogName='application';ProviderName='Backup Exec';ID=57755; StartTime=(Get-Date).AddDays(-1)}
$props = @{
"Server Name" = ($event.MachineName -split '\.')[0];
"Event ID" = $event.ID;
"Time Logged" = $event.TimeCreated;
"Backup Result" = Switch ($event.ID) { '57755' {"Success - Skipped"}
'34113' {"Failed"}
'34112' {"Success"} };
"Message" = $event.Properties[0].value -replace '\n' -replace '\r';
$OutputArray += New-Object PSObject -Property $props
} #end try get-winevent
Catch { } #end Catch
} #end scriptblock
$jobs[$jobcounter]= Start-job -name $("Job_$jobcounter") -ScriptBlock $Scriptblock
$jobcounter+=1;
While((Get-Job -State 'Running').Count -ge 10) {
Start-Sleep -Milliseconds 10
} # end main foreach
Get-Job | Wait-Job
$OutputArray | Select-Object "Server Name","Event ID","Time Logged","Backup Result","Message" | Export-CSV -force -Path $OutputCSV -NoTypeInformation -Append

How about this?
I use wmi win32_ntlogevent which i prefer .. Timeservice is just for example ...

How to send an updated list using batch job

Hi All,
The program displays data on the screen, if the data looks ok, then there is an option to update.
When I run update, the program submits a batch job and the basic list gets updated, but my batch job is still sending the data on the screen. how can i send the updated list using batch job.
Ex: output of the program
                1         2
       there is an update button on the screen, when i press update button, my program submits in batch job, the above list becomes
                1        2
                3        4
but when i check the spool, it shows the o/p as         1           2 ..it is not sending the updated list.
Please suggest me how to send the updated data
Thanks,
Kumar

How to call a stored procedure on time basis with out using sql job and GOTO

Hi,
I wanted to call a stored proc, on time basis ,
please tel me how it can be done with out using sql job , goto .
1) That is, is there any timer aviable in sqlserver.
q2) And which one is better GOTO or sql job.
yours sincerley

Raj, Check if my explanation helps you:
Your job runs every 10 seconds.
Lets say first time you are scheduling and running your job at 12:00:00 PM
Now your proc will start executing.
Say it got finished at 12:00:07.
Now the next schedule time is 12:00:10 PM.
The moment this time hits, the job will get invoked and start executing the proc.
Lets say this time it finished at 12:00:22 PM (It took 2 extra seconds)
This time the scheduled time is already gone (12:00:20 PM), thus it'll now run at the next schedule that is 12:00:30 PM.
Thus if anytime your job takes more than 10 seconds to run, it'll just miss those particular schedules overlapping with execution time. Otherwise you are good to go.
PS: A job is the best way to handle this, in your problem statement you don't need a job but that would be wrong. You have another way to do that, if you keep running your procedure all the time and the moment your timestamp hits a multiple of 10
seconds you can run your logic and then returning to the timer. But this is extremely wrong for a system. Even if your requirement is extremely transactional and complex, I would not suggest this. If the job is taking more than 10seconds (which it might if
your logics inside are complex), you should optimize your code and table architecture.
Chaos isn’t a pit. Chaos is a ladder. Many who try to climb it fail and never get to try again. The fall breaks them. And some are given a chance to climb, but they refuse. They cling to the realm, or the gods, or love. Illusions. Only the ladder is real.
The climb is all there is.
