This Advanced Sensor will report Task statistics based on Windows Scheduled Task and error entries it found in a XML log file maintained by the Talend orchestration job.

This script performs two tests: it checks for the periodic execution of the defined Windows Scheduled Task and looks for error entries in the Talend Job maintained log file.

Additionally this Advanced Sensor script allows to monitor whether the Windows task is disabled. In this case an error will be reported back to the probe.
