Deployment of a Command line?

Question

Hello,

I am trying to

Disable the feature BranchCache (PeerDist)
Disable and Stop the service associated witn: PeerDistSvc

I create a bat file

BranchCache.bat

Dism /online /Disable-Feature /FeatureName:peerdist /NoRestart
sc config "PeerDistSvc" start= disabled
sc stop "PeerDistSvc"

I created a package and distributed it to a collection

but the distribution error out:

On the client I have the execmgr.log:

Executing program as a script execmgr 9/29/2022 7:51:13 PM 6644 (0x19F4)

Answer 1

Hello,

I tried the same PowerShell in PowerShell comand locally on a machine:

It has 3 steps but only the last one is executed, why?

I added a separator at the end of each command line ";" semi-colon and apparently it is working I will restart the deployment...

Stop the BranchCache Service

sc stop "PeerDistSvc"

stop-service PeerDistSvc;

Disable the BranchCach Service

sc config "PeerDistSvc" start=disabled

Set-Service -Name PeerDistSvc -StartupType disabled;

Disable the BranchCache feature

Dism /online /Disable-Feature /FeatureName:peerdist /NoRestart;

Thanks,
Dom

Answer 2

Yes apparently I needed to add a separator ";" semicolon after each of the commands to get all of them working...

Still testing for more results.

Thanks,
Dom

Answer 3

Closing this thread as the target now is on a Cmd file containing the PowerShell command
