A very quick-and-dirty solution would be:

On Error Resume Next
.Cells(1 + i, j + 1).Value = oInfoObject.Files.Item(1).Size / 1024 & " KB" 
On Error Goto 0

or

If hasFiles(oInfoObject) Then
    .Cells(1 + i, j + 1).Value = oInfoObject.Files.Item(1).Size / 1024 & " KB" 
End If
....
Function hasFiles(oI as InfoObject) as Boolean
    hasFiles=false
    On Error Goto wtf
    Dim a as Integer : a = oI.Files.Count
    If a > 0 Then 
        hasFiles = true
        Exit Function
    End If
wtf:
End Function

(untested)

Hello,
I have been looking for something like this but an automated way for this to run and email a report to us. At 7am we manually go into instance manager each day and take a screenshot of failed reports and running reports and email this to our group and our report developers. Any chance of getting something automated like this to email out? Thanks for any feedback. man this is some great work with that macro.

Hello,
I notice that when I run this it is not picking up any instances for Administrator and reporting them. I will keep playing with it. I see other submitters but not Administrator. Any ideas? Thanks.

I tried this with BI 4.1 and it is working fineā€¦

Now problem is I have BO 3.1 also installed, so not sure if something different allowed it to work or not ā€¦

This is a great tool ā€¦ I am facing issues when running against 1 server and I am sure this is not because of the data, something else is wrongā€¦

So I know it has been a while, but I have been working with the different versions of this amazing tool all day. Can anyone shed some light on the SI_NEXTRUNTIME error? I know it was mentioned on page 5-6 but I canā€™t seem to figure out what needs to be changed with that one. I took the query and ran it in Query Builder and it doesnā€™t bring back that field in any of the results. Let me know if you can. Thanks again!

Which version of BO are you using?


joepeters :us: (BOB member since 2002-08-29)

Hi, sorry that would be helpful, wouldnā€™t it. we are on 4.1 SP4.


rxdb (BOB member since 2017-02-13)

There are two XI3 versions that should work if you switch the references to version 14 of the libraries:

Hello,

Just like to know if this tool can also rerun failed instances ?

Thank you.

No, itā€™s read only. But you could modify it to do that.
