Client Management Suite

simply looking for simplest method to add a task to the beginning of a managed software delivery job that would check for a specific process - if it is running the SWD job would abort - if it is not running the job would continue.

Using SMP 7.1

Thank you

Hi,

And use the Remote Altiris Agent Diagnostics (RAAD) tool to see what's going on on the client. Download and execute are two separate phases so make sure first that it's gettting downloaded or why not

Hi Gary,

You may try to create script task with command like:

 tasklist /FI "IMAGENAME eq notepad.exe" | find /I "notepad.exe" > nul

Such task should return success if notepad.exe is running and should fail if notepad is not running.

Then add that task to the MSD policy "Dependency Tasks". MSD should fail with "Not Compliant" status if notepad.exe process is not active.

Thank you,

Alex.

Alex,

Thank you for the suggestion.

We've had a change in plans here so won't be able to test this out right away.

But it looks good and I will report back when I get a chance.

Thank you!

Gary

No prob :)
