Test-PendingReboot.au3 -- did I miss something?

rudi · August 17, 2021

Hi.

One Exchange Server always complained, that there is a "PENDING REBOOT", I would need to reboot the server first.

Searching the web I found some advices and packed them into this script.

Looks like there are other "PENDING REBOOT" reasons, as still this box wants a reboot over and over again.

Remark:
I also used ServerManager to add some minor feature (here: telnet client) followed by a reboot. Didn't help either.

<edit>

Placed the code updates and minor changes
