Unlocking Clients

(imported topic written by hbkrules6991)

Hi All

Apologies if this is in the wrong section but is there an action to unlock locked clients? I need to do a mass shutdown of locked servers and Big Fix is the way to go. Individually unlocking them is not my idea of fun so i was wondering if there was a way to do so from a list of PC’s or something? These clients are still on version 6x as we have not yet upgraded to 7x

Thanks

Hi hbk,

Select the computers in the console, right-click on them, and go to “Edit Computer Settings”. Verify you have targeted the appropriate computers, choose “unlock”, and you can unlock them all in one action.

HI Ben

Maybe i should have specified that these machines are not in alphabetical order and there are over 80 machines but i guess manual is the way to go…thanks…

Hi hbk,

Just do the same thing I mentioned and use the third targeting option and paste in the list of computers.
