Execute commands on a remote server

hello,
1. how can i execute commands on a remote server using java (how to connect and how to execute) without having java on the remote server
(i cannot connect with Socket object)
2. how can i execute commands on the local computer
please help me

Well, for #1, if you can possibly know what commands you'd have to call you could set a perl script up on the remote machine to perform that command and return to you the results. problem is, you'll have to have a web server of some sort to do this (as far as i know).
I know it's not a very good solution, but it's helped me plenty of times where i couldnt install Jakarta or the likes on a server and couldnt connect to it using sockets.

Is it possible to execute OS commands/files on remote server using SOA Suite/BPEL , just like we have JCA adapter File/FTP to exchange files across servers ?

I am working on technical process automation requirement wherein files need to be exchanged and executed as well , SOA workflow capabilities are helping but I could not find a way to remote OS comman execution yet.
Please help.
Thanks

The whole idea of SOA is to run web services located anywhere. So I believe if you can expose the runtime in remote servers as services then you will be able to call those services like any other web service.
Or if you requirement is to execute files on the SOA server itself then you can use the java embedding activity.

How to execute BC4J code on remote server using DBC Files

Hi People,
I have a requirement here that i do not know if it's possible to achieve. We have an Application Module that fetches some records and another Application Module that receives them as parameters and inserts these records in interface tables. However, the BC4J code is installed on the JAVA_TOP of the Development Instance, and will not be installed on the destination server. What i would like to do is to place the target instance DBC file on the FND_TOP/secure directory on the Dev instance, and instantiate the Application module pointing to this DBC file, so that the AM connections would point to the target instance (thus inserting the data on the correct tables). Is that possible?
Please let me know if you want further clarification. I have seen something similar working on iSetup (extract from source env -> Load on dest env) but have got no clue about implementing that.
Best regards
Thiago

Hi,
you can follow this steps.
1. Create a database link to the remote server
CREATE DATABASE LINK remote_Server
CONNECT TO apps IDENTIFIED BY apps
USING 'remote';
2. Create a Synonym for the table in the remote server
CREATE SYNONYM po_headers_remote
FOR po_headers_all@remote_Server
3. Create entity object based on this synonym.
4. Create View Object based on above EO.
Through this view object you can udpate remote database...
Hope this helps.

If I run .cmd file from SCCM client as administrator it works, but I have to push in environment for hundreds of machines and somehow its not running with elevated administrator rights..
Spend lot of time but getting nowhere..
I would greatly appreciate if anybody could provide me any clues
Same commands worked before for Windows 732bit machine but not it fails on x32 and x64 bit both.

Thank for quick reply, I have already deployed RSAT successfully
I installed PSTools on test machine and
Used "psexec -i -s cmd" to open a cmd in system context manually and copied .bat script to c:\windows\system32 and run from command prompt, it works fine on test machine..
But how would I implement it using SCCM because our client machines doesn't have pstools?
Please provide more details Torsen I haven't deployed apps using psexec so far..
RJ
There's no need to "deploy" using psexec - use psexec as a method to verify the scripts/commands are valid and functional when executed in the LocalSystem context (because LocalSystem context is exactly what ConfigMgr is using when you tick "run
as admin").
So, that worked.
How are you packaging/launching this via ConfigMgr?
Are you using "package" ?
Are you using "run command line" ?
Or AppModel/Application ?
Maybe, you are using run-command-line, or package-without-source - if so, I guess that your script is trying to run from UNC off the DP and this is what DISM is objecting to?

Windows Image Deployment - WinPE - Execute Command After Server Image Deployment but Before WinPE Reboot

Simplified version: Execute command in WinPE after server image deployment but before WinPE reboots.
I have a custom ISO with a boot.wim and install.wim for deploying Windows Server to our environment. Our environment does not allow DHCP and we have no static IPs available at build time so this will all be done with no internet connection during all phases
of deployment.
We have a custom HTA form that generates an XML file based on user input and stores it on the RAMDisk during WinPE. How can we move this XML file from the RAMDisk to the deployed Windows Server image?
Thanks in advance, Tim

I believe you should be able to do this during the offlineServicing configuration pass. You would just need to add into your answer file a command or script to copy from the XML file over to the newly created C:\ drive.
I don't have System Image Manager installed on the computer I'm using but if I recall there is a spot during the offlineServicing pass to execute custom commands. You would just add your script path there, the WinPE system drive letter is
X:\ , and I think the target drive letter Windows is installed to might change depending on how many devices you have hooked up so do a test install and hit SHIFT-F10 , from there you can run diskpart > list volume to see where the new Windows
install is located.
Another alternative could be using a USB drive as your install media, then you can run a script during offlineServicing to copy that XML over to the USB drive.

Help! Save to remote server has broken links to all images

Okay, I (now) know this was a stupid thing to do - but surely there must be an easy way to rectify it...!?
I usually 'PUT' the html files to the remote server, once they have been saved locally. But I keep getting frustrated with the uploading of all the dependency files, so... I 'discovered' the command 'SAVE TO REMOTE SERVER' and used this to save my html file directly to the server. I was asked if I wanted to update all the links - and I clicked YES (doh!)
Now all my images and links are broken.
I know it is just a single page - but it contains quite a number of links and images. Also, this page used a template and the image/links from the template within this one file are also broken. (The actual template file and all the other pages in the site are okay)
'Undo' did not work
Does anybody know a quick way to fix this?
I am using Macromedia Dreamweaver MX 2004
MANY thanks in advance,
Rich

I 'discovered' the command 'SAVE TO REMOTE SERVER' and used this to save my html file directly to the server. I was asked if I wanted to update all the links - and I clicked YES ...
Sorry to say you've learn a valuable lesson the hard way. Never, never save to remote server without first checking your work locally.
You'll need to fix the links. Working locally and in code view, identify the path problem. Do a Find & Replace (Ctrl+F) in the source code. Test in browsers. THEN when everything works properly upload to server.

How can you run a command with elevated rights on a remote server with invoke-command ?

I am trying to run a script on a remote server with invoke-command. The script is starting and is running fine, but the problem is that it should be running with elevated rights on the remote server. On the server where I start the invoke-command, my account has the necessary rights.
The server were I launch the invoke-command is a W2K8 R2. The remote box is a W2K3 with powershell v2.0 installed.
When I launch the script on the remote-box from the command line, I don't get the access denied's.
Is there a way to do this ?
Thanks in advance

The script that I want to run is to install the windows updates. I get an access denied on the download of the updates.
When I execute the script on an W2K8 box, (not remotely) and I run it with non-elevated rights, I get the same error.
The script is running fine when it is launched on W2K3 box locally with a domain account that has local admin rights, or on a W2K8 R2 server with a domain account that has local admin rights, but with elevated rights.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Execute script in remote server

Hello ..
My question, is there any built-in package can do the following:
- Open connection from oracle database to remote server (windows server)
- Execute script located in the remote server
or anything can help to achieve this
Thanks

"or anything can help to achieve this"Your question is rather vague, so it's hard to know what "this" is.
Anyway, there are two aspects to your question:
1. running a script (presumably a .SQL script or similar).
Oracle doesn't provide much in the way of built-ins to run scripts. Scripts are OS tools, and generally intended to be invoked from an OS agent (a shell script, SQL*Plus, etc). One option for running scripts is to build a Java Stored Procedure which mimics teh SQL*Plus HOST command. Tom Kyte has an example of this. Find it here: http://asktom.oracle.com/pls/asktom/f?p=100:11:0::::P11_QUESTION_ID:952229840241 Alternatively, as others have pointed out, DBMS_SCHEDULER supports running OS executables (since 10g). This would be a good solution if you want to run the script repeatedly, at definable times.
2. accessing a remote directory
The database can only access local directories. If you want it to be able to access a remote directory you will need to persuade your sysadmin or network admin to share the requisite drive and create a mapping to it on your database server.
As for other ways of doing it, well the best way is to avoid the need for a script in the first place. Oracle has added a whole bundle of functionality to the database which increasingly render shell scripts obsolete. If you can explain what your script does we might be able to explain how to implement it as a pure PL/SQL solution.

Execute commands remote with PSSession

Hi,
I am trying to write a script that is executed on Server A but connects to Server B and executes the commands with remote Powershell.
I am currently just trying some simple commands since it's the first time I have tried the remote Powershell function. I connect to a server which is working fine, but if I do a simple command like:
$FoundFiles = Get-ChildItem - Path "C:\Temp"
it returns an error telling me that it cannot find the path. If I do the same and use "C:\Windows" it works.
If I enter the commands manually in a console everything also works as expected.
Lasse
/Lasse

If you do this:
Enter-PSSession -Name TestConnection
$tmpFiles = get-childitem -path "C:\temp"
you will be running from the remote system and c:\temp will have to be on the remote system. Either copy the file there or use invoke.
Spend some time testing the commands until you sort out how remoting works. When you enter a sessin your prompt changes to tell you you are now running on the remote system and all references are to the remote system.
This works the same but references are local and execution is remote:
$session=New-PSSession -ComputerName Servername
invoke-command -file c:\temp\script.ps1 -Session $session -ArgumentList '-param1 xxxx','-param2 vvvvv'
I can also alter the session:
PS C:\scripts> invoke-command -command {$newvar='hello remote'} -Session $session
PS C:\scripts> invoke-command -command {$newvar} -Session $session
hello remote
Notice the session is retained. I can load modules in one command or file and use them in another:
We can also use -AsJob for very long running scripts and invoke against a list of computers.
it is not just a telnet like session but a full remote targetable session.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

System gives me message below:

How can I solve this problem?

Hello Cemil,
Could you save the output that the script startsap returns to a file and upload it somewhere. Also the startsap logs, the location of which you could see when you run the startsap script. You could use http://www.rapidshare.com/ to upload the files.

SSH SUDO passwordless to run commands on remote server

Hi Experts,
We are running various OS/Network and Database related commands and scripts on Local and Remote Server to perform/compare the results
As part of this activity, we have bottleneck on running commands/scripts on the remote server as we need to provide password everytime whenever we use SSH command
Also, we need to run command as ssh sudo su - oracle for security purpose which prompts password two times.
we would like to automate this process in order to save password securely(temporarily) while running ssh sudo commands/scripts.
I see, there are various solutions using SSHPASS,EXPECT commands, however we dont have anything available to use within our group.
We may not be able to use SSHPASS as this component not installed during VM build, so we left with only option to use EXPECT.
So, Need your help to get any example working script using EXPECT for ssh sudo passwordless connection.
Appreciate if anybody can share ideas or working scripts
Thanks in advance

FWIW, here is a small script that I wrote several years ago that may help you to automate the password less ssh setup with a remote system. I just verified it and changed it to create a RSA key. The script still works and runs fine under Oracle Linux and Mac OS X.
Simply create a script called "passwordless-ssh" with the content shown below.
Assign execute privileges: chmod u+x passwordless-ssh
Then run the script as following:
./passwordless-ssh user@target_hostname_or_ip
The script will create a ssh RSA private and public key, prompt for the remote host password and the copy the pubic key to the remote host. A subsequent ssh login to the remote host should no longer prompt for the password. It is essential however that the scrips runs in an interactive session, which is verified.

How to execute an SSIS package on a scheduled basis from remote server and pass in input files

I have an application server and a db server. My db server has all things SQL Server stored on it (DBMS, SSRS, SSIS, etc.) I have several nightly batch process SSIS packages (dtsx files currently) that will pickup an input file and import them
into the database. I would like to execute all batch processes from my application server as I have quite a few other ones as well that do other stuff outside of SQL Server via powershell. My question is how to do this? Is there away to execute
them remotely via DTexec.exe, should I set them up as Agent jobs and somehow pass in the file names\location (how?), create and SSIS catalog, etc.?
I need to easily be able to see if the packages execute successfully or not and if not capture the detailed information of why they failed from the remote server so I can use that to drive my process flow logic in the batch processes.

Hi Jason,
According to your description, you want to execute a package on a schedule and receive notification when package ends with error in the job.
After testing the issue in my environment, we can directly add the package in a step of a job, then add a schedule and set the Alert and Notification property in the job to achieve your requirement. For more details, please see:
Create a Database Mail in the SSMS.
Right-click the SQL Server Agent services to Enable mail profile, then select the appropriate Mail profile.
Under the Operators folder, create an operator with the correct E-mail name.
Right-click the Jobs folder to add a new job.
In the Steps pane, New a step with SQL Server Integration Services Package Type to run the package.
In the Schedules pane, New a schedule for the job.
In the Alerts pane, New an alert with SQL Server event alert, then enable Notify operators option with an operator in the Response pane.
In the Notifications pane, enable Email option with same operator and When the job fails selection.
Then when the package fails, the job would be failed and we can receive the error message in the mailbox.
Besides, please make sure the account that execute the job has correct permissions for the file, for the folder that contains the file, and for the database.

Is this a single exe file, or is it part of an installed application with exe, dlls, registery settings, etc?
If this is an installed application, you cannot run it like this. That would be like trying to start microsoft office which is installed on a different computer.
