I'm trying to prepair a VMware template

I’m trying to create a template for VMware that will have BigFix and McAfee already installed on it. I know this can be done with scripting but I have nothing to follow.

This is what I have so far.

ECHO Removing the IBM Values

REM stop the BES Client
net stop “BES Client”

REM Reset the IBM Values
reg add HKLM\Software\BigFix\EnterpriseClient\GlobalOptions /v ComputerID /d “” /f
reg add HKLM\Software\BigFix\EnterpriseClient\GlobalOptions /v RegCount /d “” /f
reg add HKLM\Software\BigFix\EnterpriseClient\GlobalOptions /v ReportSequenceNumber /d “” /f
exit

To avoid ‘odd’ errors down the line, it’s also a good idea to delete the contents of

C:\Program Files\BigFix Enterprise\BES Client\__BESData

And be sure that you don’t restart the BES Client service or you will have to repeat all the steps again.
