How to run a program after scan is finished?

strubbel

Currently we run Sophos scans on the client machines during work hours. Because this slows machines down, we want to scan the machines nightly. Waking up the machines is not a big point, but because on some machines scans run fast and on others they might need hours, I wonder how we can manage that a program (shutdown) is run after the scan job has finished?

I assume others do nightly scans with shut downs, too?

    Hello strubbel,

    yeah, forgot about the localization (I'll edit my post accordingly). Didn't want to come up with a crude (no insult intended) solution in this forum :smileywink: (although I still use simple cmd language hacks when no one else can see them).

    You've probably thought of it already - if some machines take a really long time to finish and there's a chance that someone will log on before the scan has completed should make sure that this isn't the case (you probably don't want to shut down then).
