UserInfo - Will Set User Information for the Computer Targets

This command sets user information for the current computer targets.

Syntax

UserInfo [location] 
         [user] 
         [phone] 
         [target] 
         [comment]

[location]

An optional parameter that sets the location text for the current computer

[user]

An optional parameter that sets the user information text for the current computer

[phone]

An optional parameter that sets the phone information text for the current computer

[target]

Specifies whether the command is applicable for the computer unit (default), or any valid or existing user profile units on the same computer. You can specify any target except the following targets:

• On the computer that you are running the command.
• From the user profile on the same computer you are running the command on.

[comment]

An optional parameter that sets the comment text for the current computer

Example:

In the following example

sd_acmd userinfo location="Room 5" user="The user" phone=123456 target=MyComputer Comment="Building 22"

Client Automation presents the specified information to a DSM Explorer user in the User Data tab in DSM Properties (Systray).

Notes: You can freely omit any argument, say Target, and you can select any combination of lowercase and uppercase letters you want.

Changing user information with this command can collide with other changes. The changes made on the computer where the command is executed are reported to the agent's manager.

If a user selects a computer target in DSM Explorer and effects an information change, that change applies only on the server and not on the agent computer.

The information on the agent computer itself is not changed until a sd_acmd userinfo command, which initiates changes, is executed for the affected computer target. The changes made are then reported to the manager, overriding any change made using the DSM Explorer in the meantime.

A third way to set User Information is with the help of the Systray (DSM Properties / User Data tab)
