In order to execute remote commands it is first required to provide connection parameters to the XpoLog XPLG instance:

Connection Parameters

Key	Description	Values
xpologURLxplgURL	The URL to the XpoLog XPLG instance	URL	Mandatory
user	Authentication user name	Text	Optional (Mandatory if security is enabled)
password	Authentication password	Text	Optional (Mandatory if security is enabled)

...

Example for base of base command to connect to a remote XpoLogXPLG:

When using scripts, it is recommended to set the above as parameters, as they should be used on any command which is being executed:

...

set JAVA_RUN=java -cp xpologClient.jar com.xpolog.sdk.client.XpoLogSDKClient

set XPOLOGXPLG_CONN=-xpologURL httpxplgURL http://<xpolog-machine>:<xpolog-port>/logeye -user USER USER_NAME -password PASSWORD PASSWORD

General Script Example: download here

Common Use Case:

Important: in all examples above we have used %JAVA_RUN% %XPLG_CONN% which is suitable to Windows environments. For Linux, the SDK script should use $JAVA_RUN $XPLG_CONN
Automatically Add Servers to XPLG:
Automating the process of adding new servers to XPLG, mainly in dynamic environments such as clouds where servers are constantly added and removed. The SDK provides full support so when a new machine is added, simply be a couple of commands the new server is added to XpoLog and the required logs are be collected and available for the users. See Script Example: download here
Automatically Remove / Disable Servers in XPLG:
1. Disable Server but keep data that was already collected
  If a server is removed from the environment but you wish to keep the data that was already collected by XPLG from that server, simply disable the account of that specific server so XPLG will not try to connect to it but will keep the data based on the retention policy. See Script Example: download here
2. Remove Server and data that was collected from it
