Question Task scheduler - script output

[mmcr]

Does anyone know how to get the output of a script into the task scheduler 'Run Result' window ?

eg if I run a simple script that echoes 'Hello' in the terminal, I presume this is stdout ?

Yet when run in Task Scheduler, both the 'Script:' and 'Standard output/error:' boxes are empty...

Never looked. I've scripted a redirect of command output to a file in a shared folder, but then that's what I wanted ... the recent tail of the the message log to a place where I could read it without using SSH.

Now looked and it's under Action -> View Results. Nope don't see anything here when I run my script and Help is no help.

In your case are the DSM outputs empty because you've directed the script output to file rather than stdout ?

You'd expect something in the Script field though, wouldn't you?

Yes I suppose so

Unrelated, but does anyone know how to trigger a script on power on ?

I don't see an option other than a set time each day, but if the NAS is never turned off, then it will spawn a new script process each day...

Create -> Triggered Task -> User-defined script -> General: Event = Boot-up ?

Thanks !

I overlooked the Triggered Task option
