Client Management Suite

 

 

This task include one batch file that can find patches in client computer by remote. I build this batch file as package into ALtiris 7.5.

 

Now the issue is run batch file in my hard disk by manual, everything is fine. For example, will showed "PC1234, 3065822 Patch found".  I checked PC1234 by remote, the 3065822 patch is installed.

 

However If I use job task and push this package to my computer (I want this task can automatic run in weekend), then will showed "PC1234, 3065822 Patch does not exist ".

 

This is code

 

@ECHO OFF

SETLOCAL

set LOGFILE_DATE=%DATE:~6,4%.%DATE:~3,2%.%DATE:~0,2%

set LOGFILE_TIME=%TIME:~0,2%.%TIME:~3,2%

set LOGFILE=log-%LOGFILE_DATE%-%LOGFILE_TIME%.txt

rem log-2014.05.17.txt

 

echo %date% : %time% > %LOGFILE%

 

 

 

set PATCH=3078071

 

 

 

 

for /f %%i in (workstations.txt) do (Call :CHECK %%i)

Goto End

 

:CHECK

Set COMPUTERNAME=%1

 

:PING

ping %COMPUTERNAME% -n 1 > .\temp\Ping.txt

find /I "out" .\temp\Ping.txt > .\temp\Reply.txt

if %errorlevel% == 0 Echo %COMPUTERNAME%, is Offline >> %LOGFILE% & Goto END

 

find /I "check" .\temp\Ping.txt > .\temp\Reply.txt

if %errorlevel% == 0 Echo %COMPUTERNAME%, Host is Not Found >> %LOGFILE% & Goto END

 

 

REM # Determine patch

:Search Pathch

 

wmic /node:%COMPUTERNAME% qfe | find /I "%PATCH%"

 

REM # IF ERRORLEVEL = 0 it is there

 

IF %ERRORLEVEL% == 0 (GOTO REPLACE_FILES2) ELSE (GOTO LOOP)

 

 

:REPLACE_FILES2

Echo %COMPUTERNAME%, %PATCH% Patch found >> %LOGFILE%

GOTO END

 

:LOOP

Echo %COMPUTERNAME%, %PATCH% Patch does not exist >> %LOGFILE%

 

:END

 

 

 

 

I think this code cause issue "wmic /node:%COMPUTERNAME% qfe | find /I "%PATCH%" "

 

However spent couple hours, can't fix this issues.

 

Please help me, thanks.

 

 

 

How does the batch file get credentials to access the remote computers using wmic?

Did you add a firewall exception for "Windows Remote Management" on the client?

No, However The task can run success in my workstation by manual.

Try to use credentials of "Currently logged-in user" or custom credentials, instead of default "Symantec Management Agent credentials" within "Advanced Settings" of this client task in client job.

Also you have a typo in your script

• :Search Pathch

I try to use credentials of "Currently logged-in user", it's works!

 

Thank you so much!
