16.2 Executing applications on a remote computer
You can schedule execution of service applications such as batch files or scripts on a remote machine
through Acronis Snap Deploy Management Agent. The purpose of running applications is to make
changes to the deployed system. The applications run silently in the background, so please do not try
to run applications such as Explorer, Notepad or any other application that has the user interface.
For example, you can execute the Movefile.bat file, which contains the following commands:
mkdir c:\Folder
copy c:\Somefile.txt c:\Folder
del c:\Somefile.txt
This will create the new folder \Folder and place the Somefile.txt file into the folder.
