You can create a script in an external XML editor and import it to the appliance.
Imported scripts must conform to the following structure:
• |
The root element <kbots></kbots> includes the URL of the KACE DTD "kbots xmlns="http://kace.com/Kbots.xsd">...<kbots> |
• |
One or more <kbot> elements. |
• |
• |
• |
The following is an example of the XML structure for an appliance script:
In the preceding example, the </config> element corresponds to the Configuration section on the Script Detail page. This element is where you specify the name of the policy or job (optional), and the script type (policy or job). Within this element you can also indicate whether the script can run when the target device is disconnected or logged off from the appliance.
You can import scripts to the appliance as needed.

The Run and Run Now commands enable you to run scripts on target devices immediately without setting a schedule.

Run Now and Script Detail pages: Running scripts from the Scripting > Run Now page enables you to run the selected script on target devices. |
• |
Scripts page: Running scripts from the Scripts page using the Run Now option in the Choose Action menu enables you to run multiple scripts at the same time. |

Mac Profile Detail: Using the Run Now command on the Mac Profile Detail page runs a script that installs or removes the selected Mac profile on target devices that have an Agent connection to the appliance. |
• |
Mac Profiles: Selecting Choose Action > Run on the Mac Profiles page runs scripts that install or remove multiple Mac profiles at the same time, provided that target devices have an Agent connection to the appliance. |
