The process of converting Wise Script made exe's back to Wise scripts (.wse) is not efficient with any utilities available in the market.

It is always advisable to keep a copy of the Wise script embedded in the exe, so that we can get back the project file at anytime even if the source file is lost.

Steps:

1. Create your own Wise script
2. Include the script in itself
3. Compile the script
4. Run the executable with "/script" as cmd parameter, you will get back the wise script in %TEMP% location.

In my environment (NS 6) there are a lot of scheduled tasks running on permanent time and day but from time to time I need to temporary disable a task and then enable it again.

With NS 6 there is only one option to disable task:

By disabling the shared scheduled that the user uses (IF he uses...) but in this way all the tasks that use the same shared scheduled will be also disabled.

The other way is delete the scheduled task and then recreate it when you need it again. Not very good option when the task runs on a variety of collections and computers...

So I came up with another option that allow me to disable the task but keeps it from deletion (and the collections\computers selections).

Create new shared scheduled in:
Configuration-> notification sever settings -> shared scheduled...

Ever had an Asset created where the Resource Type is incorrect, or have you had a physical server virtualised, but the Resource Type has remained as Computer instead of Virtual Machine?

Well here's a quick script to change the Resource Type for an individual resource

UPDATE vResource
SET ResourceTypeGuid = '2C3CB3BB-FEE9-48DF-804F-90856198B600'
WHERE vResource.Guid = '9f679247-fc68-4baf-9042-5571cb79ee64' 

In this example, a server, GUID 9f679247-fc68-4baf-9042-5571cb79ee64, has had its Resource Type changed to Virtual Machine 2C3CB3BB-FEE9-48DF-804F-90856198B600.

Common Resource types are:

Asset  B9EE0AB2-AE0E-4867-BF4C-41D4A382163B
Computer  493435F7-3B17-4C4C-B07F-C23E7AB7781F
Monitor  FE46D9CE-B71C-4DE4-B790-242A9EF1A5D3
Network Printer...

Command line to apply multiple transforms:

Msiexec.exe /i {path}.msi TRANSFORMS=T1.mst;t2.mst

Value Supercedence:

If t2.mst contains any property or any update that t1 has made, the installation will take the final transforms value.

Ex: If t1.mst sets a reg value HKCU\Software\Test\Enviorment =0

And if T2.mst sets a different value to the same registry HKCU\Software\Test\Enviorment =1

then the instalaltion will take the reg value as 1.
