General_FileCount knowledge script
NT_FileChanged knowledge script
NT_FilesChanged knowledge script
Situation
How do I use a directory in an AppManager knowledge script that has a space?
Resolution
AppManager may trigger an event if the job cannot traverse the path specified to a specific file or target directory. In the knowledge script properties you will want to follow the Windows file systems 8.3 naming convention in the script properties.
For example:
For full path to c:\program files\help\me withthis\now.txt you would enter c:\progra~1\help\mewith~1\now.txt.
To identify the naming convention used on the file system, open a command prompt on the target agent machine and type: dir /x in the desired directory. This will list out all the files in the specified directory and the 8.3 name in which they are stored.
