    How to use global events in limagito filemover

    Most requested feature: ‘Global Events’ — available in version v2026.2.22.0

    This is especially useful when multiple rules share the same event configuration — change it once and all rules are updated automatically. It took us more time the expected but finally it is available. It is a first release so there can be hiccups, please let us know. We’ll fix them asap.

    • Setup your ‘Global Events’ using the menu item under ‘Global’:

    • <Add> a new ‘Global Event’, give it a valid description and enable it.

    • Do your usual setup like you did with the Rule Events. When you are done click <Close>.

    • Open the Rule(s) where you want to use the new ‘Global Setup’.

    • Select ‘Global Event’ as Event Type and select the event you want to use. In this example we selected the previously created ‘Global event 1’.

    How do I use Zabbix to monitor the status of my tasks

    Q: How do I use Zabbix to monitor the status of my tasks.

    What: We are looking to monitor some of our Limagito tasks inside Zabbix using the rule event in Limagito.

    Why: Example, we have an SLA for a specific service, we monitor the hardware services etc in Zabbix

    Some of those services depends on file being moved by LIMAGITO.

    How: I need to execute a CMD with parameter on event success and on event fail so I can communicate to my Zabbix server.

    Could you give me some assistance as to how I can run an .exe with parameters whenever a task is successful/unsuccessful?

    A: In version v2023.10.23.0 we added our ‘Command Line’ option to the Rule Events. This should make it possible to use any Command Line tool like the one from Zabbix (zabbix_sender.exe).

    Example for the ‘On Success’ event. We have no idea about the zabbix_sender Command Line tool parameters, this is just an example from their website.
    You’ll need to enable the ‘On Error’ event too and add the Command Setup for this event also (with other zabbix_sender parameters).
    We have set the ‘Max Time After Beginning’ to 30 seconds. This prevents the command from hanging in case there is an issue with the command Line tool.

    Maybe it is a good idea to enable ‘Success event memory’ and ‘Error event Memory’. This way the event will only be triggered when the status changes between Success  <> Error and not with every Success and Error event.

    On Pascal Script Events

    Starting from version 11.8.26.0 we’ve added two new events:

    • On Pascal Script Success
    • On Pascal Script Error

    Events.PascalScript

     

    When enabled these events can be triggered by the psExitCode of any enabled Pascal Script.

    PascalScript.Events

     

    • Setting the psExitcode to 0 (zero) will trigger the ‘On Pascal Script Error’ event
    • Setting the psExitcode to 1 (one) will trigger the ‘On Pascal Script Success’ event
    • Setting psExitCode to any other value will not trigger the ‘On Pascal Script’ events
