[marc2510]

Hello,

 

need some help! im looking roll .net framework 4 out via batch

 

simple one liner \\SERVER\delivery$\2011\dotNetFx40.exe /q /norestart

 

that bit is nice and easy.

 

what i need help with is, im pushing this out to everyone and i would like to know what PCs have been done and what ones i might need to visit.

 

a notepad file with a list of hostnames for the ones that are done would be bril

 

Thanks in advanced

Depends how you want to do it, It's easy enough to make it add a line to a file, however you'll run into problems with a few hundreds pcs trying to write to a file at once. Overwriting eachother etc.

 

Unless you don't mind doing it a bit of a longer route, and having it say make a file of the computer name, then run a seperate process/script to merge the files into one?

that sounds good to me, would u mind putting the script together for me?

 

even if i had to have a folder full of txt files named using the hostname, if that makes sense?

Something like this?

 

\\SERVER\delivery$\2011\dotNetFx40.exe /q /norestart

echo dotNetFx40.exe ran on %date% >\\SERVER\delivery$\2011\%computername%.txt

 

Then you could manually run:

 

dir /b \\SERVER\delivery$\2011\*.txt >>\\SERVER\delivery$\2011\allcomp.txt

 

to compile a single file with all the names in.

See above hehe

You planning the SIMS summer update too?

 

Adding on to andy_b, I think this should work, checking if done already.

 

IF EXIST \\SERVER\delivery$\2011\%computername%.txt GOTO dot4_end ELSE GOTO install_dot4
:install_dot4
\\SERVER\delivery$\2011\dotNetFx40.exe /q /norestart
echo dotNetFx40.exe ran on %date% >\\SERVER\delivery$\2011\%computername%.txt
:dot4_end
