Client - Download & Execute

The Executer plugin makes it possible to integrate the call of third-party applications. These applications do not necessarily have to be on the calling client. The respective third-party application can be made available in such a way that it is downloaded and executed on the client when it is called.

To illustrate this, the integration of SCCM Remote Control is explained below.

  1. First, the entire directory structure of the application must be copied to the RequiredFiles directory of the SCCM Manager installation. There should be one main directory that contains all files. Example:{Installationspfad}\Resources\RequiredFiles\CCMRemoteControl}

  2. Now the start menu shortcut "Update Version" must be executed. This creates a new file (__RequiredFiles.obj), which is used by the SCCM Manager to collect the required files.

  3. To make this program available, a new action must be created in the Control Panel. This is done in the administration mode of the SCCM Manager.
  4. After the new action has been created, the ExecuterPlugin assembly must be assigned to it.
  5. Depending on the requirements, an argument and a start parameter can now be defined.
  6. If the new action has been activated, from now on every client can call the Remote Control action.
  7. The following image shows the configuration of the Remote Control third-party application in SCCM Manager.

The following parameters are mandatory:

-RequiredDirectory = directory on the server (only needed if download)

-Target = executable file and any parameters
