Session Relevance to see contents of a file in /tmp on the Root Server

Content Authoring

I can use the following relevance to get the computer name for the Root Server:

name of bes computers whose (value of result (bes property "Relay",it) as string = "BES Root Server")

What I was hoping to do was use the Web Reports QNA functionality (or some other way) to look at the contents of a file in /tmp:

lines of file "/tmp/perf_monitor_stats"

I was hoping to get the results stored in the file, without having to log on to the machine.

Thanks,

You would need to have the analysis on the endpoint configured to pull the information. At that point, I believe you can query the result of an analysis by name but how to do that escapes me.

Create an analysis with a property that retrieves the data you want - the property uses client relevance so something like

lines of file "/tmp/perf_monitor_status"

Then from session relevance you can get value of that property.
Say the property is named performance_monitor_status
The session relevance will be something like

values of results of bes property "performance_monitor_status"
