DOS Batch - Call command "funny"..

[PaulSc]

Hi,
after a bit of help/advice please..

i have a series of DOS batch scripts which are "controlled" by a master script, CALLing each step as it goes

i.e call \\server1\folder\script1.bat
call \\server2\folder\script2.bat
call \\server1\folder\script3.bat

This excutes all the scripts from the server they are called from (i.e. server1), however in my case, script2 for example runs ISQL scripts and the server1 this runs from doesnt have SQL installed (server2 does) meaning it doesnt work....it processes but doesnt action the ISQL commands...

I can't transfer all the scripts to the other server as the 3rd party app that runs them cant see outside its own environment and even if I do another single script to call all the scripts from server2 I still have the same issue...

So my question is, is there a way to make script2 actually execute on Server2 (rather than Server1) (yet still run script1 and script3 on server1) ????

Cheers

PaulSc

To do that you would need to use a 3rd party solution. I would look at psexec.exe from MS.
