NAME: Resource_Monitor.vbs
TYPE: Visual Basic Script
PRIMARY LANGUAGE: VBS
AUTHOR: Justin Grimes
ORIGINAL VERSION DATE: 7/16/2018
CURRENT VERSION DATE: 11/14/2018
VERSION: v1.0
DESCRIPTION:
A simple script for monitoring the resource usage of workstations or servers and notifying IT if and when there is a problem.
PURPOSE:
To ensure smooth operation of the network and prevent downtime by creating visibility on device health for administrators.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Copy the entire "Resource_Monitor" folder into the "AutomationScripts" folder on SERVER (or any other network accesbible location).
2. Add a scheduled task to SERVER to run "Resource_Monitor.vbs" several times daily with the "-t" argument.
3. Use the -t argument when running from Task Scheduler. This will send emails to IT warning them about resource problems.
4. Do not use the -t argument when running as a user. This will prevent emails from being sent and display the information instead. DOES NOT DISABLE LOGGING!
5. -i -Use to display as much information as possible to the user. Disables email notification.
6. -ss -Use to select which CPU socket to target for monitoring.
7. -ds -Use to select which disk to target for monitoring.
NOTES: SendMail for Windows is required and included in the "Resource_Monitor" folder. The SendMail data files must be included in the same directory as "Resource_Monitor.vbs" in order for emails to be sent correctly.
