Dell OpenManage™ IT Assistant User's Guide

NOTE: You must run discript on the management station.

NOTE: You can only use discript to manage client (non-server) systems.

The program that runs the IT Assistant command-line interface, discript, is located in the \bin subdirectory of your installation directory. For example, during a typical installation, the directory path in which to locate discript is the following:

To access the command-line application, perform the following steps:

1. Create a command-line script file according to the instructions and examples. Use a text editor such as Microsoft® Wordpad or Notepad to create the script file as a text-only file.
   
   
2. Save the script file with the extension .sc.
   
   
3. Open a command prompt window, change to the \bin subdirectory of your IT Assistant directory, and type the following command:

discript script_file_name.sc
