Passing a command line argument while executing script through a remediation action

Shubham_Jain — Tue, 19 Nov 2019 17:00:52 GMT

Hi,

I need to execute a script using AppDynamics. While executing the script, I need to pass a command line argument. Could you please let me know if this is possible? If yes, could you please let me know how to achieve this?

Like, in below example, I need to execute the script AppdDiagnosticDisk.sh passing the argument "/opt".

Yep, should be possible depending on what you're doing, this document may help: https://docs.appdynamics.com/display/PRO45/Remediation+Actions#RemediationActions-Configuration

I don't think its feasible to pass command command line argument in the remediation action. If AppDynamics team can share that it we would be more than happy to use this functionality.

Second that. We have multiple use case scenario where passing custom command argument would greatly enhance the remediation action capability for us. Utilizing the ENV variables exported to the script are great, but not sufficient for us.
If this can be consider for upcoming releases of controller and machine agent, that'd be really great.
