Coordinator Console Utility (xgCoordConsole.exe)
The Coordinator Console utility (xgCoordConsole.exe) can be used for two purposes:
-
Generating an XML file containing information about the Agents in the Incredibuild environment and their current status. This can be used for a variety of purposes such as real-time monitoring and generating custom statistics about your Incredibuild environment.
-
Performing Coordinator-related maintenance tasks, such as cleaning the file cache on all connected Agents.
Coordinator Maintenance Tasks
To clear the file cache on all connected Agent machines:
-
Run the following command:xgCoordConsole.exe /ResetAllFileCaches
Note: This option can only be run from the machine running the Coordinator service.
Generating the Coordinator Status XML File
To generate an XML file with the current information, run the following command:
xgCoordConsole.exe /ExportStatus=MyFilePath.xmlWhere MyFilePath.xml is the path to the target xml file.
Additional command line options:
-
/nologo – suppresses the copyright message
-
/local – exports status of the Coordinator running on the local machine, regardless of the Coordinator specified in the Agent Settings dialog
