Monitoring a specific directory for files using a wild card with K1000
Our antivirus likes to dump huge crash files into a specific directory, and I'd like to monitor that with a script if possible. I haven't been able to figure out how to check for any files with a .DMP extension. Can anyone help? Thanks!

you can do this with WMIC as either a custom inventory item or create a script
substitute the correct path name.
wmic.exe datafile where "extension='dmp' and path='\\temp\\dumpfiles\\'" delete
as a script:

You could use a custom inventory rule something like this assuming C:\Program Files\Dell\KACE\x64\ for the .dmp file location:
ShellCommandTextReturn(cmd /c dir "C:\Program Files\Dell\KACE\x64\*.dmp")
It would display under Software>Custom Inventory Fields on the computer's inventory page.

Use this to create a rule, then create a smart label for that item and use it in the script to limit deployment to selected labels. - SMal.tmcc 10 years ago
