Client Management Suite

Hello, 

Is there a VBS script out there to automatically delete or retire a computer from Altiris 7.1.  Long term thinking would be the ability to massively delete multiple computers at a time.   This would be used for computers that were set to be recycled.     

I have purging maintenance set up, what I looking for is a "on demand" solution.   

Hi.

I created this script to delete computers from a txt file (one computer pr line). Modify as needed.

Set objFileToRead = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject").OpenTextFile("C:\temp\windowxp.txt",1)
Dim strLine

do while not objFileToRead.AtEndOfStream
     strLine = objFileToRead.ReadLine()
    
     sql = "select guid from vCMDBComputer where name like '"  & strLine & "' "

    set rs_new = db_new.execute(sql)

  db_new.execute("insert into itemtodelete(guid) values('" & rs_new(0) & "') ")

 
loop
msgbox "Done"
