Running Script on Client

I'm trying to run a script job to install Microsoft Security Essentials.

the script copies the install file, runs the install, then run a scan.

but when I drop the job on the client, the client reboots.

can you just have a client run a script without it rebooting?

You mean after the install?

If the install is an MSI, just add this to the arguements - REBOOT=R (yes CAPS count)

You will then need to handle the error return code (probably 3010) within DS as a success.

No, it's just a simple script:

mse.exe /s /runwagcheck

c:\program files\microsoft security essentials\mpcmdrun.exe -scan -2

i created a job, and selected run script as the task.

when i drag and drop the job onto a client, the computer reboots. then there is an error that says unable to boot to automation partition.

I just want the script to run on the client.

ahh.. You have to have it run under "Production" not automation. Change that and you will be good
