Get CPU and Run a EXE

[shashank.kaneria]

Hi Folks,

I am making a small DOS batch script.

Scenario: A script which can take the LoadPercentage.
if LoadPercentage is above 90% then it should run an executable(whatever it is).

My findings (just an command):

Code: Select all

wmic cpu where "loadpercentage > 90" get loadpercentage

This will provide me the total cpu utilization(excluding Idle one)
I am stuck at if else loop and comparison operator.

Now we have to put an condition if CPU is more than 90 than execute "Test.EXE"

I will appreciate if anybody helps me out.

rather you'll need logman with alerts

This should work:

Code: Select all

wmic cpu where "loadpercentage > 90" get loadpercentage | find "LoadPercentage" >nul && test.exe

[shashank.kaneria]

This should work:

Code: Select all

wmic cpu where "loadpercentage > 90" get loadpercentage | find "LoadPercentage" >nul && test.exe

AWESOME !!!

its working.

But in my scenario there is little bit more addition to be done, it should work only once whenever it find CPU more than 90%, it will run and then stop.

i am not able to handle if else condition so that i cant check if it worked once (means flag is 1) then do EXIT; like this

Yesterday I have tried d whole day to manage this small code to do this but all gone in vain.

The test.exe will run and the batch file will quit, with the addition below.

Code: Select all

wmic cpu where "loadpercentage > 90" get loadpercentage | find "LoadPercentage" >nul && (test.exe & goto :EOF)

wmic cpu where "loadpercentage > 90" get loadpercentage | find "LoadPercentage" >nul && (test.exe & goto :EOF) 

AWESOME !!!

Worked well. I was using some variables, Flags, if-else... hahaha

I have just made some baby like changes in this code (just an infinite loop)

Code: Select all

:BEGIN
wmic cpu where "loadpercentage > 1" get loadpercentage | find "LoadPercentage" >nul && (test.exe & goto :EOF)
GOTO BEGIN

Thank you so much... learnt a lot

Glad it helped.

Your code will make constant checks and consume a fair bit of CPU by itself.

If you add a line after the WMIC line that delays a little bit then it will take far less CPU, such as this:

Code: Select all

ping -n 4 localhost >nul
or if you have Vista or later
timeout /t 3 /nobreak >nul

and it will delay for around 3 seconds between each check for CPU usage.

Okay, I have added the same.

its working more smooth now. GREAT.. !!!
