Scheduled reboots possible with 2003 R2 sp2?

[Guest markm75]

It used to be with regular 2003 server, that you could install the web admin

console / page.. and in there you could do scheduled reboots or instant

reboots of the servers, remotely...

 

Is such a feature available with r2 somewhere, as an addon or 3rd party tool?

 

Thanks

Create a batch file that has the SHUTDOWN command in it. For example:

shutdown.exe -f -r

will reboot a server and force all running applications to close.

 

Then just use Scheduled tasks to schedule the file execution.
