Question
Thick client connecting to random servers with dynamic window names
Hi,
I'm automating a thick client using Pega Robotic Studio, this thick client is connecting to two different servers and the windows are capturing server names as well(dynamically). I want my automation to run if it opens in both the servers.
Thanks,
Anima
I have interrogated a Thick Client application. The thick client application is deployed on a server pool, say, Server_100 and Server_200. Therefore, it shall come either from Server_100 or Server_200 based on the load balancer algorithm.
While interrogating the thick client application, it was served from Server_100, therefore, if the thick client is served from Server_200, it does not work. We observed that the Server name is appearing in the TITLE BAR of the thick client.
I guess, the title bar details are used and recorded during interrogation, therefore, it fails when the thick client is server from Server_200.
Please advise, how we shall handle this scenario in Pega, thank you.
Accepted Solution
Hi,
Try by modifying the tile match rule using regex or contains or starts with.
For ex: www.google.com.in (India), https://www.google.com.usa (USA) then the match rule should be www.google.com (startswith or regex) so it will identify any country Google page.
Create a boolean to monitor the access to the two servers. Set the bool to 1 when the connected event is fired, and 0 when the disconnected event is fired. After setting the bool to 1, check to see if the other bool is 1. If it is, start the automation.
