See Adding an Action to a Script
Each action opens a dialog box that lets you enter parameters.
Note
Context-sensitive help is available for every script action dialog box; press F1
when the dialog box appears.
You can drag actions to rearrange them in the script.
You can comment scripts for easier modification later.
4. Save the WiseScript. The project file format is .WSE.
5. Compile the WiseScript by clicking Compile at the lower right of the main window.
This creates an .EXE.
6. Test the WiseScript:
To test the WiseScript without actually making changes to your computer, click
Test at the lower right of the main window. This is most useful for testing any
user interface elements of the WiseScript.
To run the WiseScript on your computer, click Run at the lower right of the main
window. This will make changes to your computer.
7. If you are using WiseScript within the Altiris® Notification Server™ software, you
can use the Altiris Console to:
a. Create a Software Delivery package that runs the WiseScript program.
b. Configure a Software Delivery task to run the package on a specific collection of
computers.
c. Schedule the task as needed.
See the appropriate Altiris documentation at
Documentation.aspx.
in Script Editor, do any of the following:
From the Actions list in the left pane, drag an action onto a line in the Installation
Script list in the right pane. The new action appears above the line that is
highlighted when you drop the action.
