Using the Change OSQL.exe Path Used by PATROL dialog box
The OSQL.exe Path Used by PATROL menu command opens a dialog box where you can change the path to OSQL.exe used by PATROL to communicate with the SQL Server. The path entered into this dialog box changes only the path used by PATROL; it does not change the location of the path on the SQL Server.
The following fields of information are found in this dialog box:
Field | Description |
|---|---|
Date | The day, month, date, time (hh.mm.ss), and year that you opened this dialog box |
Name of computer | The name of the computer where you opened this dialog box |

If the KM is downloaded to the PATROL Agent, you must break the connection with PATROL Agent and reconnect to PATROL Agent. | |
