  • 1.  Create Script Task for client that run on Task Server

    Posted Dec 12, 2008 01:04 PM
    When i use Deployment Solution, it's very useful to execute script on Deplyoment Server. IT's also very useful to make some task with off-line clients, and to use some tokens or custom tokens.
    Is there a way to create Scripts Tasks applied to clients but started on NS or Task server ?
    With this feature, linux task client will be almost ready : just run some putty scripts on task server with IPAddress of linux client as a Token.

    Hello moije,
    Task Server currently only support Windows clients. However, you can easily deliver scripts via Task Server as long as the Client Task agent and Script Task agents are deployed to the clients.

    HTH,

    We built a utility that pretty much tickles the task server from the client system. There is a DS job that copies the tool down then executes it, followed by the GUID of the task we're trying to run as it's argument. We do this for departmental builds.

    Note - the task agents need to be installed beforehand.
