log file that will be used to log the script output.

Example:
logfile=C:\Charon\myds20vms_shutdown.log

windowsevent

Defines which message levels will create a new entry in the Windows Application Events (Source="CHARON")

Can be either "none" or any combination of S, W and E. 'S' for Success, 'W' for Warning and 'E' for Error. Default is 'SE' so Success and Error only.

Example:
windowsevent=SWE

waitbeforestop

Example:
waitbeforestop=10

Optional parameter used to open the console program while executing the script. This parameter must contain the full path to the software used to connect to the console.

It is recommended to define this parameter in case of integration with Windows shutdown

Example 1:
openconsolecmd=C:\Program Files\CHARON\Build_20203\x64\putty

Example 2:
openconsolecmd=putty
