Description

In this video, I create a Windows batch file that backups a file. I then execute it and read the response from the remote Zabbix Agent host using the system.run item key.

example.bat

@echo off
set d=%date%_%time%
set d=%d:.=%
set d=%d::=%
set d=%d:/=%
COPY c:\temp\abc.txt c:\temp\abc_%d%.txt >nul && (echo 1) || (echo 0)
