QAppSrv

This command does not have any parameters or complex syntax variations, making it straightforward to use.

Options/Flags

Since QAppSrv does not support any additional options or flags, its usage is quite simple. When executed, it automatically queries and displays the list of application servers.

Examples

Example 1: Displaying the Application Server List

To see the list of application servers in your server farm, simply run:

QAppSrv

This command will provide output listing all servers part of the farm, along with their status.

Common Issues

  • Server Not Listed: If a server expected to be in the farm is not listed, ensure that it is correctly configured and network connectivity issues are resolved.
  • Permission Issues: Running QAppSrv may require administrative privileges. If an access denied error occurs, make sure you launch the Command Prompt as an administrator.

Integration

QAppSrv can be used in conjunction with other Remote Desktop and network management tools to automate tasks and create reports. For example, combining QAppSrv output in a script:

QAppSrv > server_list.txt
type server_list.txt | findstr /i "server_name"

This script first saves the list of application servers to a file and then searches for a specific server in the file.

  • change logon: Enables or disables session logons to a Remote Desktop Session Host server.
  • change user: Changes the install mode for the Remote Desktop Session Host server.
  • query user: Displays user session information on a Remote Desktop Session Host server.
