Hi @Allan0105 , hope all is well!

You should be able to do all this within a Workflow:

https://documentation.commvault.com/2022e/expert/49663_built_in_activities_for_workflows.html

You can use Decisions to determine if an email is sent out (there’s an Email operation) using the previous jobs as inputs.

Thanks Mike. I am good. hope you are doing good too. 

 

I will just explain, what i was trying to do. we have an BigFix which is used for windows patching. i have created an workflow in commvault which will stop the services , suspend job , disabled schedule etc. which is working fine. 

 

Now i am trying to make BigFix to call our workflow for that i was creating an .bat file in CS which will have a command to execute the workflow, next step is i want to monitor the jobid which workflow created and send back the update to BigFix the status of the job. so i was thinking will put commands on .bat and capture the output of text file which i will use BigFix to capture the output so BigFix will know whether the workflow got completed or not. 

 

Same these things. if we can do with any other method also i am fine.

You can use the qlist job command. there is a -waitForJobComplete option
