Our master scheduler runs on a Windows 2000 Server.
We want to use isTaskRunning on a remote machine to verify that a particular program is still running. That remote machine is Windows 2003 Server. When the script is executed the results are for the local machine, not the remote system. Both machines are running 3.4.13 and the remote machine is running the in agent mode as an executable not a service.
Any thoughts?

Thanks,
Allen

Here is how

Create 2 jobs of JAL script type.

Job A:
Dim GLOBAL.TaskStatus, boolean
IsTaskRunning "name here", GLOBAL.TaskStatus

Job B:
Dim RemoteTaskStatus, bolean
JobRemoteRun "Job A", "agent name here"
GetRemoteVariable "agent name here", "GLOBAL.TaskStatus", RemoteTaskStatus

Job A is a helper job that needs no schedule. It is sole purpose is to be run dynamically from other jobs. Do not disable this job just set its schedule to [no schedule].
