RE: [ActiveDir] DC Unattended Restart

[Paul van Geldrop]

In certain circumstances, a scheduled reboot with shutdown.exe might give 0x15 code errors, indicating a process is still running and that the shutdown command can’t execute. Even using the /f switch to force all applications to close won’t work. I’ve seen this happen with virusscanning software combined with temporary backup cache files. Just in case you encounter the same.. closing the handle on the processes did the job for me. That was a b**** to find out.   Regards,   Paul   -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jorge de Almeida Pinto Sent: Monday, January 31, 2005 11:23 PM To: ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] DC Unattended Restart   Yep, using the shutdown.exe tool (command-line and GUI). by default in W2K3 and for W2K you can still add it from the support tools or the resource kit (I always forget which one) Jorge   From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Kevin Gent Sent: maandag 31 januari 2005 22:08 To: ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org Subject: [ActiveDir] DC Unattended Restart Is there any way to schedule an unattended restart, warm or cold boot, of a DC ?
