Hi,
we are currently in the process of upgrading our company SEP 11 to SEP12, this is a major project involving almost 5000 clients, currently we are working on deploying the SEP 12 clients to users in our company. I need to create a script to remove/uninstall the old SEP 11 and install SEP 12 remotely, all is well during the testing period, but now i have stumbled across a problem. we need to use the GUID to remove the old SEP11 -- below is how my script looks now:
"C:\Program Files\Symantec\Symantec Endpoint Protection\Smc.exe" -stop -p pass
REG DELETE "HKLM\Software\Symantec\Symantec Endpoint Protection\SMC" /v smc_exit_test /f
REG DELETE "HKLM\Software\Symantec\Symantec Endpoint Protection\SMC" /v smcinstdata /f
MsiExec.exe /x {F744D87D-02A9-48E0-98C0-07E160C22F57} /qb- /promptrestart
we are planning to use psexec@pclist.txt to remotely push the script to multiple machines, the problem is how ever, because we have multiple clients with their own "GUID" we have to manually change the string everytime we want to use the script on different machines. My question is, is there a way for us to create a script that can proceed to uninstall with out the GUID? or any other solution to our problem?
