Provide the script location in the text box under Script Destination.

HP XP P9000 Performance Advisor automatically executes the script when the performance of a
component crosses the set threshold level.

The output of the .bat file provided will be present in the absolute path location (example:
C:\Users\Administrator folder or system 32 folder), as it is platform dependant. Therefore, ensure
that you provide the absolute path while creating the .bat file.

Alternatively, copy the script location from an existing record and apply it across multiple other
records. For more information, see

“Applying a template” (page 126)

.

Sample script file

The following is an example of a script file: C:/Temp/a.xml. The format of the XML file should
be as follows:

<?xml version=”1.0” encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<!-- A sample XML file describes the script to be executed -->
<Service>
<Method>Run Script</Method>
<!-- Enter the full path name of your script file -->
<Full-Script-Path>C:\Temp\a.bat</Full-Script-Path>
</Service>

for HP XP P9000 Performance Advisor to start monitoring the selected component and send
notifications. To enable alarms on components:
