Arni, you could set it up for auto launch, then use some if exist statements to goto various loops. I do this for my network backups. I put a file in a directory and test to see it is there, if not then I stop with a delay and restart the net service. You could use a variation of this to test a specified path, if it fails, then loop to the next path etc. When it finds the path then call your synch script.
Script example:
IF EXIST "C:\Program Files\Folder\868.txt" goto Update
goto :eof
:Update
DEL "C:\Program Files\Folder\868.txt"
COPY \\SERVER\SHARE\Folder\869.txt "C:\Program Files\Folder"
NET STOP "My Service"
:: a delay is needed here - stopping a service needs some time.
ping -n 10 localhost >NUL
NET START "My Service"
IF ERRORLEVEL 0 goto :Email
echo error %errorlevel% occured
goto :eof
:Email
cscript \\SERVER\SHARE\Folder\Email.vbs
I should add since you won't know the drive letter assigned to the thumbdrive on various computers, I suggest you use relative paths.Politicians and diapers have one thing in common. They both should be changed regularly and for the same reason.Posted 5 years ago #
