I need to develop an inventory tool that contains automated scripts which logs on to I/O system of Telecom Switch and run a fixed set of commands. These commands will do the actual work of collecting the inventory from proprietary hardware.
This part I know how to do .
The scripts that I will run will create a logfile everytime a script is initiated and every command sent and output received are all logged.

But I am new to the next part....

The data that is collected should be stored in a database and should have a web interface.

Please let me know how to move forward with this.

Thanks .

You're into Tcl, aren't you?   Then you might want to use Tcl on a web server to create the web page - in essence, you write a script that reads from the environment and writes to the screen ... but the web server 'diverts' it to read from a form and write to the browser, using the common gateway interface

There's a source code sample at http://www.wellho.net/resources/ex.php4?item=t241/tclcourse.tcl which should help you get started

Hi,

I need to store certain details retreived and these details have to be stored based on the date and time.
So anytime we need to check what the status had been of the machine on the date and time specified it can be retreived and displayed .

So I was wondering after getting the info of the machine it will be logged ( This will be done using the tcl scripts) but then how do I store it such that the details can be displayed as required....

Please let me know how to just go about starting with this...

Thanks,
