Jobprocessor: Request if in Pause Mode

[cidhelp]

Hi,

to monitor, if the jobprocessor is working correctly, I want to request if the jobprocessor.exe is in Pause mode.

I know the command line options to start, pause, resume, stop the jobcrocessor, but I only want the get an information, if jp ist paused or not.

Is there an (hidden) command line option to get this info? Or is there a chance to get the info using the vault api?

Hi

• Is there an (hidden) command line option to get this info?
  
  I don't believe that there is
  
  
• Or is there a chance to get the info using the vault api?
  
  There's no Job Processor client API
  The only thing you could do is use the API to check if any of the jobs are being processed by that particular PC
  But that can't tell you if the application is Paused or Idle (waiting for a job)

I looked at this a while ago, and tried using AutoHotKey (https://www.autohotkey.com/) to detect the Job Processor application, and read the control at the bottom left, looking fro the word "Paused"

That was partially successful, but I had trouble when the application was minimised to the system tray, and didn't follow it through to see if I could get over that final hurdle

If that's of interest, I can have a look for the script

Hope that helps
