Ack. Just a
net stop "windows packager"
net start "windows packager"
(or "wpkg service") would do it, too.
Just created a little vbs script which asks for Computer name(s)
(and user/password if you like) to remotely restart wpkg service:
--------------------------------
Set WshShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
Wscript.StdOut.Write "Please enter one or several remote computer "
Wscript.StdOut.Write "(comma separated):"
strComputer = Wscript.StdIn.ReadLine
'If needed: uncomment to ask for user and/or password
'Wscript.StdOut.Write "Please enter your DS AD user name:"
'strUser = Wscript.StdIn.ReadLine
'or:
'strUser = "admin_name_here"
'Set objPassword = CreateObject("ScriptPW.Password")
'Wscript.StdOut.Write "Please enter the password for " & strUser & ":"
'strPassword = objPassword.GetPassword()
Wscript.StdOut.Write " "
Wscript.StdOut.Write "Restarting wpkg Service on " & strComputer
strCommand1 = " net stop " & chr(34) & "windows packager" & chr(34)
strCommand2 = " net start " & chr(34) & "windows packager" & chr(34)
'Return = WshShell.Run("psexec.exe \\" & strComputer & " -u " & strUser &
" -p " & strPassword & strCommand1, 4, true)
'Return = WshShell.Run("psexec.exe \\" & strComputer & " -u " & strUser &
" -p " & strPassword & strCommand2, 4, true)
Return = WshShell.Run("psexec.exe \\" & strComputer & strCommand1, 4, true)
Return = WshShell.Run("psexec.exe \\" & strComputer & strCommand2, 4, true)
