XmlServiceDigger

by Nicholas Dille on 02/03/2009 | 0 Comments | 18 Views

The XmlServiceDigger sends several requests to the specified XML service querying information about the farm, its servers and applications. The data gathered in this process is displayed to demonstrate the amount of data disclosed by the XML service. All requests and responses exchanged are logged and can be accessed in a separate window.

Hi Nicholas, This is a great

Hi Nicholas,

This is a great tool, I have been looking for a way to automatically check that Citrix services are ready (list of servers with AltAddr settings, list of applications). It looks like you have done the job, but I'd like to make it a general command tool. Is there a way to get access to your source, PD, GPL or commercial? In addition to my goal to have an XML talker program as a command line tool, I also get an error (converting string "H" to Integer) when I test the existing EXE file on a Presentation server 4.0 farm. I'd be happy to debug this myself too, but I understand if it is not possible to release the source. In that case I'm back to try to solve this myself, but you'd certainly proven it can be done!

Jorn, thanks a lot for your

Jorn,

thanks a lot for your positive feedback.

I realize that the approach can be used for automatically checking the XML service and its correct operation. To be honest, I am currently working on another tool to query the XML service from the command line. You will be able to integrate this tool in a script to run customized tests depending on your requirements.

Just stay tuned ;-)

Jorn, I have finally managed

Jorn,

I have finally managed to release the XmlServiceReader: http://blogs.sepago.de/nicholas/2009/05/19/health-checking-the-xml-servi....

It enables sending requests to the XML service from the command line. Replies are printed to standard output for scripts to capture and process.

I hope this helps,
Nicholas
