issue with cleanmgr (disk cleanup manager)

[pat]

Hi,

I am trying to automate the run of disk clean-up tool (cleanmgr) on my managed computers. I have created a script that prepares the "sageset" on computers and that seems to be working OK. The problem I am running into is that when I remotely launch the script/1-liner that executes the cleanmgr to effectively run the created sageset, it just hangs while using a certain percentage of CPU. Do you have any idea what I'm doing wrong?

prepare.sageset.ps1: this prepares the "sageset" in registry. I'm using sageset 0x0100.

run.cleanup.ps1: this starts the "sagerun". It works just fine when executed manually from powershell but I'm running into the above-descripted problem when run via pulseway.

 

Hope you can give me some directions. Thanks.

Hi,

Does the cleanmgr process start when you're invoking the script from the Pulseway automation? Please note that when you're running the script it will run under the LOCALSYSTEM account, if you want it to run under the local user account you have to setup the powershell impersonation from the Pulseway Manager -> Settings -> Runtime.
