TaskMaster Maintenance Updates Sample Tasks Support FAQ Revision list  
Novell NetWare automation, scheduling, data synchronisation and file replication.

Version 4 available with byte level synchronisation & replication - more info

24x7 Unattended Operation is now possible!

TaskMaster provides complete automation of NetWare server operations, task schedules, server administration and batch processing. TaskMaster can open files, check values, load/unload NLMs, copy files to multiple servers, analyse file properties and space used, shut down and start up servers, check users are disconnected, and synchronise server data. The possibilities are endless. The payback is immediate – TaskMaster is productive from day one.

If you only need single server operation see TaskMaster Lite - an ideal low cost replacement for CRON / Toolbox.

Examples of use:

SERVER SYNCHRONISATION / REPLICATION
Synchronise and replicate directories over local and remote servers, add directories/files from source not on destination, delete destination files not on source, replace destination files with newer source files - TaskMaster blows away the need for Novell’s Replication Services by providing greater functionality with high flexibility.

DISK PURGING
NetWare performance can REALLY suffer if the number of deleted files which have not been purged climbs to a high level. Periodic purging is the only way to avoid/correct the problem. TaskMaster can check the percentage of volume space which is purgeable and then purge automatically. TaskMaster can also scan a volume for .BAK and .TMP files which have not been accessed within a specific period of time and then delete them.

ANTI-VIRUS SOFTWARE UPDATES
TaskMaster can check to see if all users are off any server (local or remote), unload Anti-virus NLMs, copy new software and files to target server and reload NLMs when finished.

ADDING INTELLIGENCE TO BACKUP PROCEDURES
TaskMaster can schedule simple or complex backup procedures on single or multiple servers – first checking to ensure that no users are connected, then scheduling a backup and checking that it performed correctly before allowing the next job step to execute. Files can be checked to see if they exist or if they match certain date criteria before proceeding.

ANALYSE & MANAGE DISK STORAGE
TaskMaster can scan and interrogate file properties and enable action to be taken based on what YOU decide:

  • Who owns which files?

  • What type?

  • Size?

  • Last accessed date

  • Date created?
