suppresses a shutdown” will cause the RCCMD services to enact either the default
ShutdownSuppressed.bat or another user defined command when a received shutdown
command from one of the UPSMAN servers has been suppressed.
3.2.17 Shutdown.bat file (example)
Now you have to check that this batch works properly: The shutdown.bat of the RCCMD
may look like the following on NT. On other platforms a UNIX ”init 0” or Novell ”DOWN” is
executed. On Windows NT/2000 the SHUTCMD.EXE tool is used or any other NT
shutdown program. Call Shutcmd -? for Syntax help.
An example SHUTDOWN.BAT is copied into the UPS directory, which will assist you
further.
ATTENTION:
If your configuration works fine in the DEBUG mode, does not
necessaryly mean that it works also with the RCCMD as NT
service. Please ensure that the RCCMD as service has been
started in a user account with administrative rights, otherwise it
may happen that only non-restrictive programs may be
executed (like notepad.exe) but no Shutdown. (This will result
in the NT error message ”Adjust Token Privileges failed”.) If a
program has in fact started or not can be seen in Taskmanager
window (ALT+CTRL+DEL), because a service does not a started
program in the current user session due to non-interactive
transaction with the desktop.
The full command syntax for the NT consol for RCCMD in <Listen mode>:
rccmd [–debug] -l [-a IP adress] [–h hostname] [-p port] "command"
where the option in brackets are optional. The command can be either a program or a
path for another batchfile to be found on this computer. The command file should be given
with full path. The -p port option can be included if you want to start rccmd more than once
at a single computer to proceed different commands for different events. The default port
number is 6003, use any other availabe port number for different RCCMD commands.
RCCMD in the send mode :
rccmd [–debug] -s [-a IP adress] [-h hostname] [-p port]
This command is regularly used in the Senders batchfile (Shutdown.bat) and sends a
"ping" to the computers IP adress or hostname. If this ”ping” has been transferred, the
next command RCCMD –s may be executed, etc.
3.2.18 RCCMD client as relay station
In order to reach a bigger number of RCCMD receivers, the adapter needs to be operated
as relay station. The receiver will be configured so that it will receive a RCCMD signal and
this signal is then used to start a batch file, which then starts even more RCCMD sender
