Reviewing Output of GAM

[Frank LoCascio]

When using the GAM Print functions, one can add >report.csv to have results stored in a csv file.  Works great

But what about the other GAM Commands

Example

I have a file .csv file with the following GAM commands

GAM update user aaac...@xxxxx.com username angel_...@xxxxx.com

GAM update user aaac...@xxxxx.com username anais_...@xxxxx.com

GAM update user aaaq...@xxxxx.com username alexis...@xxxxx.com

GAM update user aaa...@xxxxx.com username adrian...@xxxxx.com

GAM update user aaca...@xxxxx.com username axel_c...@xxxxx.com

GAM update user aacar...@xxxxx.com username abel_c...@xxxxx.com

GAM update user aacas...@xxxxx.com username alan_c...@xxxxx.com

GAM update user aacas...@xxxxx.com username adliyet_...@xxxxx.com . . . 10,000 more update commands What I usually do is copy this from my .csv file and paste into a DOS window, and one-by-one they execute Issue is if any command fails it displays in the DOS window and eventually "rolls off" the screen Is there any way I can capture the results of a long GAM run like this????

[John Warf]

What I do is dump my commands to a .bat file and then let it run.  When it runs I offset the screen print to a file or report.

ex....

newusers.bat > report-newusers.bat

Thanks

John

I always put "2>&1" at the end of my line so it grabs the errors too.

Like:
gam info user user_name >> c:\mylogfile.log 2>&1

You'll see a difference if you put the 2>&1 at the end.

On linux you can use the 'script' tool. See http://linux.die.net/man/1/script (or 'man script' on your computer).
"Script makes a typescript of everything printed on your terminal. It is useful for students who need a hardcopy record of an interactive session as proof of an assignment, as the typescript file can be printed out later."

How to use:
example: you want a report on all accounts
your command is: python gam.py report accounts
run following command:

script -f -c 'python gam.py report accounts' gamjob.log

the script will be executed and everything will be logged into the file gamjob.log and shown on the terminal.

If you have to do multiple actions like
(when a student leaves the school at the end of the year)
python gam.py update group cl...@student.ourschool.be remove member use...@student.ourschool.be
python gam.py update user use...@student.ourschool.be suspended on
python gam.py update org left_our_school add use...@student.ourschool.be
Then put all these commands in a text file (e.g. gamjob)
and run following command:

script -f -c '/bin/sh gamjob' gamjob.log

again the script will be executed and everything will be logged into the file gamjob.log and shown on the terminal.
