Outputs and Result Codes

All Batch Client operations generate a log file. In addition, exports generate an exported data file and an export log file. The Batch Client logs warnings in the log file for any script items that fail. All errors are also recorded in the log file, including the complete error message. The log file is saved using the path/filename indicated with the /log startup parameter. If not specified, the log defaults to the name DRM_Batch_Client_mmddyyyy.log, and is written to the same folder where the Batch Client is launched.

In addition, the Batch Client returns an error level (exit code or result code) indicating its success or failure. Error levels can be tested (via ERRORLEVEL, %ERRORLEVEL%, and so on) by a scheduling program or batch file and appropriate action can automatically be taken.
