hi,

i am trying to automate things a bit. i want to create a play list to start several servers, have then open a cmd window and then run a command on our network. i can do the play list, and i can open a command window, but i have having an issue getting a script to do it.

once the script is running, i disconnect the session and then can continue starting more servers and circle back to these servers later to check on their status.

if i could automate the cmd window opening and then running a command on the network, i would save a lot of time.

hello,

i am trying to figure out how to get this done.

1. create a playlist to start sessions. This i know how to do.

2. open a cmd prompt as admin and run a command from this cmd prompt. this im having trouble with.

i can get the command to run as a scheduled task. The problem with that, is i can't log on and see the status of the script i run. So, i've been logging on and manually kicking it off.

if i can do the above, i can create a play lists for the different groups of servers i monitor, start the sessions and cmd's, then disconnect from the session and start more.

i figured that if i could do this, i could at least, create a different rdm file and use a different script to run the other required script i have.

this method would allow me to ramp up several servers at the same time without chocking my computer out of resources.

i have read where powershell can be used with this product, but i'm missing something when it comes to accomplishing my tasks.

thanks
