I am looking for more details on the 'Server-side scripts' in FMP 9 Server/Server Advanced.

Can they be triggered or only scheduled?

I'd like to trigger a script to run on the server from a small FMP file offsite or via the internet.

I can run the script remotely, from 8.5 client. But a script that takes 5 minutes to run onsite takes about 45 minutes to run offsite. I'd like to trigger it offsite to run onsite, on the server.

Can this be done with FMP 9 Server's 'Server-side scripts'?

Can someone clue me in or point me to the documentation?

I am currently using Server 8 and am thinking about upgrading to Server 9 or Server 9 Advanced.

Thanks

You cannot trigger a script to be run via Server 9's script scheduler. I suppose you could have a scheduled script check for processes that need to be run every 10 minutes or something, but you would want to be careful that it doesn't run the same script concurrently.

The FMS 9.0 server-run scripts must be web-compatible.

Ok, so the server-side scripts can only be scheduled, not triggered AND must be on the web compatibility list.

Sounds like this is not the solution for me.

I wonder if there is a good plug-in for this or what the best solution is?

Thanks

I suppose it depends on what your script is doing. There may be a different algorithm that would perform better, or you may need to update stored fields outside of that script.
