If the file requires any parameters you can still pass them on the command line. You can also
pass such parameters through GFI Network Server Monitor, by specifying them in the
„Parameters to pass to the file‟ field. You can pass parameters in plain text as well as through
variables like <%Date%> and <%CHECK_RESULT%>. These variables are then substituted to values
when the program or script is launched. For further information on variables, please refer to the
„Message Templates‟ section in the „Global Alerting options‟ chapter.

if this file is to be launched more than once during the time that this check is in a
failed state. In this case specify the time interval (in minutes) required between the
consecutive execution of the files (e.g., To run a file every 5 minutes, select this
option and enter „5‟ in the time interval so that it reads „„Once every 5 minutes as long
as the check continues failing’).
