@john.c Great ideas (especially if Vates decides to bake something similar into XO someday) but may be getting too far into the weeds for now...

That’s okay. Just putting it out there - no rush! Any way to maintain Linux good practice relocate the conf file to /usr/local/etc/ (or /etc) then keep script in /usr/local/bin.

@johnnezero Also there’s shortcut directories including one called cron.hourly, you can place a symlink (or hard link) to the script there. Cron will then execute the script without you needing to alter the crontab file.

Just drop .sh for using the shortcut directory as it will not run there otherwise.

@john.c Yet another awesome idea - adding it to the "ToDo List", thanks!

johnnezero

@john.c Wandered off through the weeds (with Claude/AI that us), and got it done.

johnnezero

@john.c Also done! Thanks for all the great input, keep em' coming...

Pilow

@johnnezero this could be a plugin in XOA !

@Pilow Sounds like an awesome idea. Send any details you may have on how to make plugins (if you know how that is).
Adding to the ToDo list - Thanks!

Looks like I can help out again just tracked down this past thread on the forums.

How’s your JavaScript (Typescript), JSON etc? These are the languages needed to develop plugins for Xen Orchestra.
