Zenith Infotech's SAAZ platform allow you to set up jobs to run on client machine, e.g. for installing software. The jobs run as user LOCAL SYSTEM. Deploying a SAAZ job can take 15-30 minutes, which is too long to wait between test runs. So how does one open a command prompt as user LOCAL SYSTEM for testing? Adi Otlean provides the answer near the end of this post:
- Open a command prompt and type
sc create CmdSvc binpath= "cmd /K start" type= own type= interact
sc start CmdSvc
Attempting to start the service will fail with error 1053 because CMD doesn't have any service-related code. However it will also open a new CMD window running as LOCAL SYSTEM.
- Do your testing in the new CMD window.
- When you're done, you might want to get rid of the service:
sc delete CmdSvc
Thanks Adi
