Get Lists of Users from Multiple Servers: Service details

The general steps for using this service template to get a list of users from multiple servers are as follows:
1. A list of Windows-based OS or Unix OS servers is obtained from the specified column in the CSV file.
State the column name in the first line of the CSV file. State the data in the 2nd through 100th lines. At
least one column must state the host name or IP address. Here is an example:
Host name
hostVM001
hostVM002
2. No more than 99 host names or IP addresses can be stated in a CSV file and the total character string
length of host names or IP addresses + the host count cannot exceed 1,017 characters.
3. The fields read are checked for the following conditions. If any of these conditions are met, the task
fails.
a. A field exceeds 1024 in character string length.
b. A field contains the following special characters , < > | ; & * ? ` % or a double quote (") not at an
end of a field, or a backslash (\) at the end of a field.
c. A field contains a control character (0x00 through 0x1f.)
4. An OS user list is output in text format to the specified file for each Windows-based OS or Unix OS
server. The name of the file is OS_Users_XXXX, where XXXX specifies the host name or IP address
as stated in the string specified in the CSV file. For Windows-based OS, the output format of the file is
the same as the output result of the net user command.
5. The OS user list file is transferred to the folder specified by the local server. The transfer source file on
the Windows-based OS or Unix OS server is deleted.
NOTE: If reading a CSV fails, wait for the seconds specified in the OS.fileOpenRetryInterval property,
and then repeat the number of times specified in the OS.fileOpenRetryCount property to retry for
reading a file. If necessary, modify the property values for your system environment.
