Switches to launch and send a miniscan including additional data

Miniscans in LDMS 9.6 and later are now run and sent via ldiscn32.exe. This allows it to follow the same codepath as delta scans returning the expected results as well as allowing the "Use Connection Address" Inventory functionality.

The following the commandline to run a miniscan using the inventory scanner.

• "C:\Program Files (x86)\LANDesk\LDClient\LDISCN32.EXE"  /mini

Miniscan still retains the ability to include custom data within the scan. Please use the following format:

• "C:\Program Files (x86)\LANDesk\LDClient\LDISCN32.EXE"  /mini /send"=Custom Data - Logged On = Yes"

Where "/send=" is the switch to let the scanner know to include the data that follows in the minscan file. It is important to include the quotes "/send" for the command to work.

The rest of the command line follows the rules for custom data. Remember, this is a snippet of information only, up to 255 characters.

This is useful to get information such as if someone is logged onto a workstation, or any other information that might be needed. This can be combined with a localscheduler task to send the information.

Note this switch is still valid for miniscan.exe
