Hello,

Is there any way to use SystemCaller to call on the terminal of a remote server?

We have FME server hosted on a computer. We have another program hosted on a Google virtual machine. It is a linux based machine and I run a couple of simple commands there. I would like to be able to do that using FME Server.

Thanks.

Hi @fariyafarhad,

 

 

You might be able to write a batch script which calls Putty. I found this thread on this topic which might be of use. I'm not sure that you could directly use the SystemCaller on a remote machine.

 

Interesting idea though!
