FILEAGE

I have set up a FILEAGE rule to look at a backup folder which houses the backup for our accounts files.



In the online help the check shows "FILENAME" "FILEDATE" and "SET STATUS DOWN WHEN THE FILE AGE IS xxxx SECONDS".



I have set the filename to a file that changes on a daily basis, the filedate to ACCESSED and calculated the time to 25x60x60 to arrive at the seconds setting.



The file is around 24 hours old and I have now tried a seconds setting of four days and also one second and I get the same down result.



If I mouse over the "last error" details I get "application-defined or object-defined" error. Can you point me in the correct direction to solve this please?



Thanks.

    The error probably indicates a file not found.



    In the next maintenance release error message will be improved.

    Yes, it was a file not found situation. Mea culpa.



    I had forgotten that I had entered a path relative to the location on my local PC (it was on my local D:) and not the path as the SC server saw it.



    It is working now.
