Summary

Enhanced Argent Job Scheduler to support Pop-up Alert Messages in Windows 2008 environment

Technical Background

Pop-up messages generated in application using the Argent API did not work on a Windows 2008 machine because the NET SEND command executable is no longer part of Windows 2008. Argent Job Scheduler is now enhanced to support messaging to Windows 2008 and higher environments

Note : Before sending alerts the AJS_POPUP_MSG.EXE need to be configured which is located in Argent Job Scheduler and Argent Queue Engine folder

The windows msg.exe needs Domain Admin User details for sending message. The details will be encrypted and stored. These details have to be set by running AJS_POPUP_MSG.EXE in Argent Job Scheduler and Argent Queue Engine separately

In the destination computer, the ‘AllowRemoteRPC‘ key value has to be set ‘1‘ for receiving message

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal Server]

“AllowRemoteRPC”=1

Resolution
