Description

Computer

The computer(s) on which to run the command.

Credentials

The credentials to use, defaults to the Scan User of the computer.

Timeout

The number of seconds to run the command.  Note, this is the timeout of the actual running of the command excluding any time to connect to the command or read back its output. Increase the timeout for commands which take a long time to run.

Command

The command to run.  This command will be executed using cmd.exe so you have access to all environment variables.

Each command is run independently and commands which expect input will cause the command to appear to hang.  Use command line options, such as /y with copy, that prevent the command from waiting for additional input.
