SYMPTOMS
========
Performance Monitor is capable of correctly detecting conditions where the value
of a parameter falls below the specified limit. When this condition occurs an
alert can be generated and a batch file run. However, Performance Monitor will
not run the batch file correctly.
For example, if Performance Monitor is configured to send an alert and run a
batch file any time CPU utilization falls below 5%, the alert will be sent but
the batch file won't run.
CAUSE
=====
Performance Monitor allows parameters to be passed to the batch job. The "<"
parameter is being interpreted as a redirection from the STDIN port, confusing
the job.
STATUS
======
