This is helpful . It shows that the agent doesn't see job output. That's why it comes back empty.

Now, may I ask you for a favor, can you try a slightly different test? Please set the test job properties to use the same user account that you use for running the agent. I mean the Run As settings in the job properties. Could you please post relevant portion of the agent's debug.log after trying that?

I am using the same account in run as as the agent is running on the remote server. I was running the agent as a service, but I turned that off and now am logged in as the same user in the run as field. Same results.

It might be the same account trinity-health\nodcbatch_ctlm but not entered exactly the same way as it appears in the echo %USERDOMAIN%\%USERNAME%. please note that case sensitivity is important to 24x7 when names are compared; 24x7 is a cross-platform solution, and user names are case sensitive on many platforms.

So, because the user name isn't matched, the log shows

As a result, the process is started in a separate user session. I speculate that is the root cause of the agent not getting the process output, and as a result, downstream the output is not returned back to the scheduler.

As an option of course you can always send the output to a custom file, for example, change your test job command line to something like cmd /C dir > C:\24x7\Output\my_file.log and then optionally transfer that file back to the scheduler (multiple methods available for that), or append to the same file on each run both cmd /C dir >> C:\24x7\Output\my_file.log or even have a dynamically generated file name so logs don't overwrite on each run cmd /C dir > C:\24x7\Output\my_file_(@T"yyyy-mm-dd hh-mm-ss").log. Here @T"yyyy-mm-dd hh-mm-ss" is a macro-variable supported by 24x7, which in job run time is substituted with a system time value in the format specified.

Have you had a chance to correct the user name and test if that resolves the issue with the empty output?
