Hello everybody,

I have this 2 batch

the first batch run each time a new file come is a specific directory and make a queuing copy, this batch runs several times in a day randomly

Code: Select all

FOR %%x IN (%SND%\*) DO FOR /F "tokens=3 delims=." %%y IN ('DIR /B %%x') DO FOR /F "tokens=1 delims=;" %%z IN ('FINDSTR %%y %SCRIPTS%\c.txt') DO (
IF NOT EXIST %SND%\F\%%y TYPE NUL > %SND%\F\%%y
COPY /Y /B %SND%\F\%%y+%%x %SND%\F\%%y > nul
DEL /Q %%x
)

The second batch do only 1 operation, precisely move 1 time a day at scheduled time the result of the copy %SND%\F\cumulativefile.txt to another directory to consolidate the data

My question is how can run the second batch safety without overlap with the first copy batch

Regards
Dario

each script must check for present another, one way - find by CMD Window title, for this purpose add 2 lines in the beginning of CMD:

Code: Select all

title CMD_1
tasklist /nh /fo csv /fi "WINDOWTITLE eq CMD_2"|find /i "cmd.exe"&& exit /b 1

Code: Select all

title CMD_2
tasklist /nh /fo csv /fi "WINDOWTITLE eq CMD_1"|find /i "cmd.exe"&& exit /b 1

this 4 lines check self and another copy of CMD:

Code: Select all

title %RANDOM%
tasklist /nh /fo csv /fi "WINDOWTITLE eq CMD_1"|find /i "cmd.exe"&& exit /b 1
tasklist /nh /fo csv /fi "WINDOWTITLE eq CMD_2"|find /i "cmd.exe"&& exit /b 1

title CMD_1

P.S. for this method scripts shouldn't start in hidden mode

This is a good solution, but how can I repeat the move task automatically, because it is be submitted by another system only one time a day

your can't get win title remotely, but can get process name, therefore your may create personal CMD.EXE for each BAT/CMD by simple copy of original CMD.EXE, for example: CMD_1.EXE for CMD_1.BAT and CMD_2.EXE for CMD_2.BAT, and start in scheduler via command:

Code: Select all

CMD_X.EXE /C CMD_X.CMD

now, your may simple detect remotely running task... and for preventing of simultaneous start your may check twice through a different time interval:

Code: Select all

title %RANDOM%

tasklist /nh /fo csv /fi "WINDOWTITLE eq CMD_1"|find /i "cmd_1.exe"&& exit /b 1
tasklist /s Comp02 /nh /fo csv /fi "IMAGENAME eq cmd_2.exe"|find /i "cmd_2.exe"&& exit /b 1

ping -n 3 127.0.0.1 >nul
tasklist /s Comp02 /nh /fo csv /fi "IMAGENAME eq cmd_2.exe"|find /i "cmd_2.exe"&& exit /b 1

title CMD_1

Code: Select all

title %RANDOM%

tasklist /nh /fo csv /fi "WINDOWTITLE eq CMD_2"|find /i "cmd_2.exe"&& exit /b 1
tasklist /s Comp01 /nh /fo csv /fi "IMAGENAME eq cmd_1.exe"|find /i "cmd_1.exe"&& exit /b 1

ping -n 5 127.0.0.1 >nul
tasklist /s Comp01 /nh /fo csv /fi "IMAGENAME eq cmd_1.exe"|find /i "cmd_1.exe"&& exit /b 1

title CMD_2

Besides, this method can detect local hidden batch processes
