External Send Method

External script notification allows you to process the output of the report
in your own script. The script receives the output as standard input
(STDIN). The recommended format for script processing is the

tab

format.

The script, which is located on the Cell Manager, must reside in the

/opt/omni/lbin

(HP-UX and Solaris systems) or

\bin

(Windows systems) directories. You

need to provide only the name of the script, not the whole path.

TIP

You can use this delivery method to perform a scheduled eject of the
specified media. Refer to “Scheduled Eject of Media” on page 138.
