Return Custom Exit Code

Question

Hello Experts,
We are using Wise Script Wrappers to run Microsoft Updates (KB). Wise Script has Exit Installation Command through which we can control the Custom Exit codes return by the setup (Wrapper) .
Case 1
In our case when we use shutdown.exe at the end  after installation of KB's to reboot the machine the exit code reflected in sccm is 0 though we set Exit code 100 in Wrapper.
Case 2
When we dont reboot at the end of installation that is we dont use Shutdown.exe the Exit code return is 100.
We cannot use Config manager restarts computer due to our business needs
So Any help will be appreciated on how we can  control the custom exit codes
Thanks,
Apppack

Answer 1

So the real question is why are you using non-standard exit codes?If you do non-standard things, you will get non-standard results.
As Jérémy pointed out 3010 means "The requested operation is successful. Changes will not be effective until the system is rebooted." There are actually other standard error codes that indicate a pending reboot also but 3010 is the most common. A complete
list of standard error codes is available at http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc231199.aspx.
