Defrag script

By California Dead Head ·
I want to set my W2000 servers to defrag C once a week at 10:30 p.m. If I set up a scheduled task it launches defrag but then a pop up box appears and waits for you to choose which drive you want defraged. I want it to run and shut down withoutany help from me??? I don't want disk keeper.

Defrag script

by TimTheToolMan In reply to Defrag script

Hi,

I wonder if the defrag command under XP would work on Win2K? I'd be doing a comprehensive backup before I tried it, though!

Example...

E:\Documents and Settings\Tim Medhurst>defrag /?
Usage:
defrag <volume> [-a] [-f] [-v] [-?]
volume drive letter or mount point (d: or d:\vol\mountpoint)
-a Analyze only
-f Force defragmentation even if free space is low
-v Verbose output
-? Display this help text

E:\Documents and Settings\Tim Medhurst>defrag E: -av

Cheers,
Tim.

Read about the AutoDefrag utility for Win 2K. http://www.morphasys.com/autodefrag/. This is probably the best answer to your situation.

Good luck.
