Remote shutdown script

Dear All,
I tried to do the script to remote shutdown my server below:
shutdown -m \\srv-ex01 -s -c "shutdown now" -t 0
srv-ex01: Access is denied.(5)
When I tried with username and password there is no access denied alert but the remote server still no shutdown.
shutdown -u administrator -p 123456 -m \\srv-ex01-s -c "shutdown now" -t 0
Please commend.
BR,

Remote Shutdown problem

Hi,
I am trying to shutdown (and restart) a Windows 7 (RC1) PC on my home network from another PC running Windows 7 (RC1). I am running the following command at a command prompt (I have tried with and without Administrator privilege):
shutdown /r /f /m \\backup
Originally I was getting "Access Denied" but after searching the internet I disabled file sharing on the remote PC and I now get the following error message:
"backup: The entered computer name is not valid or remote shutdown is not supported on the target computer. Check the name and then try again or contact your system administrator. (53)"
I have also tried using the IP address and the result is the same.
I am using the same user name on both PCs, with the same password and the user is a member of the administrator group on both PCs. I have also checked the following policy settings on the remote PC:
Local Policies:User Rights Assignment:Access this computer from the network: Administrators...
Local Policies:User Rights Assignment:Force shutdown from a remote station: Administrators
Local Policies:User Rights Assignment:Shutdown the system:Administrators
Local Policies:Security options:Network access: Sharing and security model for local accounts: Classic - local users authenticate as themselves
Local Policies:Security options:Shutdown:Allow system to be shutdown without having to log on.
Is there anything else to check?
Thanks
Patrick

I know this is a late response, but when I had the same problem, I discovered that the problem was the firewall setting related to File and Printer Sharing (SMB-IN). That rule was disabled for the Public profile; I'm not sure what triggers that profile's
use over the Domain or Private because the machine is on a LAN with the Domain Controller. When I enabled that rule, I was able to shutdown the servers. The puzzling thing for me is that the rule seemed to be "disabled" on its own.
I distinctly remember shutting down all 6 of my servers. Then 2 weeks ago, I could only shutdown 5. This week I could only shutdown 4, so I had to enable this rule on 2 servers, and I don't know what would have caused that setting to be changed.
Obviously, if any firewalls change on their own, that would appear to be a large disconcerting bug.
Just to reiterate, the firewall rule which prevented me from remotely shutdown was the File and Printer Sharing (SMB-IN) Inbound Firewall rule associated with the Public profile. I enabled it, and I could execute a remote shutdown command.

GPO Startup/Shutdown scripts not running

I am running server 2003 SBS with windows 8.1 Pro workstations.
My workstations run 1 start-up script and 2 shutdown scripts. All are BAT files.
They were all working fine last week before I ran the update for 8.1.1, now they do not run at the appropriate time on any of those systems. However, if I execute them manually they work as expected.
I have checked to see if the BAT files are still located in the GPO and they are there. They are stored locally on each machine, I have even tried to delete and re-add them and then run GPUPDATE to no avail.
Any help here would be great, as they deal with local encrypted containers and are specific to each workstation.

Hi Sebastian,
Thanks for posting.
Whether the GPO with start-up/shutdown scripts are linked to the OU containing computers?
FYI - Logon/Logoff scripts could only be applied to users, whereas Start-up/Shutdown scripts applies to computers.
Also, checkout the below thread on similar discussion,

Startup/Shutdown script for OBIEE 11g on Linux

Hi all,
as a follow-up to [url http://forums.oracle.com/forums/thread.jspa?messageID=4546010]an earlier thread by some fine gentleman, I have improved the original startup/shutdown script for Linux a bit, making sure that all processes are handled correctly. The script has been tested and works fine on CentOS 5.5 with Oracle BI 11.1.1.3.0 in a clustered configuration. Instructions:
Manual start/stop:
> service obiee start
> service obiee stop
> service obiee status
Automatic start/stop during boot sequence:
> chkconfig --add obiee
> chkconfig obiee on
Note that in order for the procedure to go through smoothly, you need to provide the admin credentials (username/password, defaulting to weblogic/weblogic) in three different places:
1. In configuration file <FMW_HOME>/user_projects/domains/<domain name>/servers/AdminServer/security/boot.properties for the administration server;
2. In script <FMW_HOME>/user_projects/domains/<domain name>/bin/startManagedWebLogic.sh (variables WLS_USER and WLS_PW) for the managed server;
3. In the startup script itself (variables BIEE_USER and BIEE_PASSWD) for shutting down the managed server.
Complete logs are available in /var/log/obiee-start (-stop).log files.

You can use WLST to start/stop BI Services and it works on both Linux and Windows.

Shutdown script for linux

Hi,
I'm looking for a shutdown script for linux to put it in crontab and another for startup. Do you have any ?
Thanks.

OK, you can cron following commands (assume that all Oracle related env variables are set. We are setting ORACLE_SID just to ensure that we will be working with the right instance):
59 7 * * * su - oracle -c "export ORACLE_SID=ORCL; echo 'startup' | sqlplus -s '/ as sysdba' >>/dev/null" 2>&1
31 16 * * * su - oracle -c "export ORACLE_SID=ORCL; echo 'shutdown immediate' | sqlplus -s '/ as sysdba' >>/dev/null" 2>&1

Shutdown script for Weblogic admin & managed servers

Greetings,
I am new to weblogic and am using it on a new box with OID. I am in the process of writing a shutdown script to shut down all processes on the box when it is restarted, I think this is better than just pulling the plug. I have learned about and turned on t3 protocols and used WLST to tore credentials in WebLogicKey.properties & WebLogicConfig.properties file so things are working properly. What I can't find is how to shut down the managed server using WLST and am also wondering if it is better to invoke the stopManagedWebLogic.sh and the stopWebLogic.sh scripts form the shell or from the WLST tool, if indeed that is possible. If soemone has such scripts they would be willing to share that would be much appreciated.
Thank you.
Bill Wagman

"One question, Rene, I see in your scripts you are storing username/password combinations.
I have used the storeUserConfig () command to create a WebLogicConfig.properties file and a WebLogicKey.properties file to avoid that issue.
Is there a reason you have not done this?"
No, what you did with the storeUserConfig, to prevent needing to store the unencrypted username
and password in your WLST scripts is good. One thing to note is that the key files are extremely sensitive
in that they allow any user to use the configuration file to authenticate as the user stored in the configuration
file. You should store the key files in a secure location so that only the authorized users have access to them (this
is also what you do with scripts that have unencrypted username and password in them). You probably have
an environment (operating system) in which only authorized users can reach the sensitive data.

Powershell shutdown script issues

Hi Scripting Guys!
I'm working on a project to optimize school computers in my region(mainly boot/startup time). As all the students are local administrators it often results in them installing various programs, programs that more often than not, is set as a start-up program,
which obviously effects the start time.
So i decided to make a powershell script to go in and edit the registry for startup programs, with the intent of making it a shutdown script to be applied through a group policy.
But the script wont run.
Trying to run it manually works fine.
I've set execution policy to both all signed and remotesigned/unrestricted(i have signed the script though)
I've disabled the UAC as it gave me some issues during testing
I am a powershell rookie though so i'm sure i've missed some obvious mistake, either in the script or settings so i'm hoping you can assist me or point me in the right direction.
The script looks something like this:
Remove-Item -Path hklm:\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
New-Item -Path hklm:\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run\ -ItemType Key
New-ItemProperty -Path hklm:\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run\ -Value '"C:\Program Files\path to some driver.exe" -PropertyType String -Name "name of some driver"
bonus info:
i'm testing in a virtual inviroment using a Win2008r2 Domain controller with Win7 clients
From the clients, using rsop.msc, i can see the script, and the path, I can also see the attempt to start the script in eventviewer and it even says its finished about 2 seconds later. (rsop shows no last execution time)
Kind regards
Powershell rookie

Hi
The purpose of the script is not to install any of the drivers but rather starting them up(or something like that) like start only essential drivers like the anti-virus software and mousepad drivers for laptops. So basically the script is supposed to delete
the run folder in the registry database and then recreate it with only selected drivers.
I hope i'm making sense?
Regarding disabling all of first line security on my entire domain i'm not sure i follow? how will a shutdown script that edit the startup registry on my domain computers disable all that?
Thanks

Using a shutdown script to save files to local sever

Hello,
I am writing a shutdown script which runs when the use shuts their computer down. The goal is to back up some user files to a local sever. I am wondering if the shutdown will be delayed until the file is uploaded to the server. The file is approx 1 - 2 gb
in size which would take a few minutes to send over to the server.
I have used gpedit.msc and linked the batch file I wish to run.
However, I have a few questions regarding this. Does windows wait for the batch file to finish executing before shutting down? If not,
is there a way to delay the shutdown long enough for the file to send?
For dev purposes I have experimented using a log off script (faster than constantly shutting off/turning on), however windows does not seem to want to wait and logs off before the btach file is finished executing. In the test batch script, I used the pause
command to test if it would wait for me to finish executing the file before it logged off, but it seems that it does not want to wait and just goes ahead and logs off before it is done.
The only work around I can think of is using a batch file which saves the files then turn off the computer
instead of a script being run at shutdown - this might be not a practical solution since I have to integrate this into several workstation computers. Also, some employees may forget to use the file to shut down. I am also not sure how keen my boss
would be for me to change the entire way everyone shuts down their computer (by running my batch file instead of the usual start->shutdown). If this is the only way to go about it I will discuss with him what needs to be done however I much prefer there
to be a script that automatically runs when they shut their computers off.
To wrap it up:
Using a shut down script, how do I delay the shutdown long enough for files to be saved to a local server? Will windows automatically wait for the batch script to finish executing before turning off?
Kind regards,
- Strider

The Remote Procedure Call (RPC) is unavailable when trying to remotely shutdown a computer

Hello!
I operate on a Windows Server 2012 R2(Which is the server for Active Directory) and I am trying to remotely shutdown a Windows 8.1 computer(which is in the domain).
I am using PowerShell to do this task, but after I introduce the command ( Stop-Computer -ComputerName Name) I get this error : Stop-Computer : The RPC server is unavailable. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x800706BA)
If you could help me with this, I would appreciate.
Thanks.

Additional information for "Computer : The RPC server is unavailable. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x800706BA):"
In addition to making sure the firewall is allowing traffic (disable to test it to see if that works). YOu can check to make sure that this is allowed:
Windows Firewall: Allow remote administration exception.
Ensure that the remote Windows client machine is registered into DNS with one IP address. This will ensure proper DNS hostname resolution.
Ensure that the DC has only one IP address.
Also, make sure the following services are running on the remote Windows client and are set to automatically start at startup:
Remote Procedure Call (RPC)
TCP/IP NetBIOS Helper
Windows Management Instrumentation

Installing application in shutdown script does not work

Hello,
I'm trying to organise the deployment of office 2013. I want to give users the choice between installation during startup and installation during shutdown of their computer.
Installation during startup works fine: installation starts and the user can use their computer and wait for the installation to finish in the background.
Installation initiated from a console window works fine as well.
However, installation using a shutdown script doesn't work as the installation command returns immediatly, the script ends and the computer shuts down.
I have changed the gpo script timeout setting.
In the powershell script, I execute the installation using "start-process" with the option "-wait". It seems like this command returns immediatly and the setup is never executed as it does not start logging the installation progress to
a local log file.
The shutdown script runs fine and it also logs its progress to a logfile on a network share so I'm sure the script actually runs and it has network access as well.
Any clues as to why the installation might fail during a shutdown script and work fine in other situations? Thanks!
I'm not sure if this is a gpo or an office 2013 deployment question. I'm thinking the environment during execution of a shutdown script might be different so that's why I'm asking my question here.

Based on your description, we can also try asking for suggestions in the scripting forum to see if they can provide a better solution.

Automatic startup/shutdown script - 3 Oracle Home

Hi All,
We have a server which has 3 Oracle Home - 8i/9i/10g.
So i am confused about configuring automatic startup/shutdown scripts.
Can you guys please let me know how to setup automatic startup/shutdown for these multiple Oracle Homes.
Thanks,
Kumar.

Bellow is a HP-UX script that can help. Create three scripts like oracle8, oracle9, oracle10 with correct path values. and than decide the runlevels and create soft links for the scripts you created, for example;
Under /sbin/rc3.d
ln -s /sbin/init.d/oracle10 S999oracle10
Under /sbin/rc1.d and /sbin/rc2.d
ln -s /sbin/init.d/oracle10 C9oracle10
AUTOMATIC STARTUP/SHUTDOWN SCRIPT
$vi /sbin/init.d/oracle10
#!/sbin/sh
# NOTE: This script is not configurable! Any changes made to this
# scipt will be overwritten when you upgrade to the next
# release of HP-UX.
# WARNING: Changing this script in any way may lead to a system that
# is unbootable. Do not modify this script.
# NOTE:

PATH=/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin
export PATH
ORA_HOME="/oracle/app/oracle/product/10.2.0"
ORA_OWNR="oracle"
rval=0
set_return() {
x=$?
if [ $x -ne 0 ]; then
echo "EXIT CODE: $x"
rval=1
fi
case $1 in
start)
# Oracle listener and instance startup
echo -n "Starting Oracle: "
su - $ORA_OWNR -c "$ORA_HOME/bin/dbstart /oracle/app/oracle/product/10.2.0"

stop)
# Oracle listener and instance shutdown
echo -n "Shutdown Oracle: "
su - $ORA_OWNR -c "$ORA_HOME/bin/dbshut /oracle/app/oracle/product/10.2.0"
echo "OK DB shutdown"
reload|restart)
$0 stop
$0 start
echo "usage: $0 {start|stop}"
esac
exit $rval

Startup and Shutdown scripts for OCS 9.0.4 on Windows?

Hi,
I wanted to know if startup and shutdown scripts for OCS 9.0.4 on Windows are available.
I am thinking something like the ocsctl_sample scripts that OCS10g included.
I have checked the OCS 9.0.4 documentation and not a lot of information for the windows platform is avaiable.
Any information will be appreciated.
Thanks,
Ana

There is no scripts that comes with 9.0.4.
One possibility is to just write the commands you normally use in a batch-file, but note that then you have no checking, and if OCS runs on several machines you should have some checking for required processes etc.
We are using some scripts that does this, but I'm not shure where they came from, possibly from Metalink or from this forum. Try a search. Our scripts are changed quite a bit for our needs, but I might be able to find the original ones.
