Execute a Command over a Unit

Sending a Command to Units

Sending a Command to Units

To create the Send a command to units job, you should have:

  • the Use unit in jobs, notifications, routes, retranslators and Send commands access rights to units;
  • the unit access rights specified in the properties of the selected command;
  • the Create, edit, delete jobs access right to the resource.

To create a job of this type, follow the steps below.

  1. Follow steps 1–3 from the guide to creating jobs.
  2. Select the unit or units for which you want to create the job.
3. Select the command which should be sent to the unit(s) and, if necessary, specify its parameters. The list displays all the commands created in the properties of the selected units. If a command is supported by all the units, the icon    is shown opposite it; if not by all the units, the icon   is displayed. In the tooltip to the icon  you can see which units support the command, and which don’t. These limitations may be due to the access rights or the device type.
4. Specify the job execution parameters.
5. Click OK.
Before the command is sent, the system checks that the creators of the job and the resource in which it is stored have the required access rights. If they don’t have these rights anymore, the command is not sent.
