NAV18: Publish-NavApp to ServerName

Hi all,

I have created a script to publish, install and uninstall extensions in the correct order based on their dependencies.
However I am having a problem, our server instance is located at a different server than the server that we are developing from. This can not be changed at this moment. Therefore I am looking for a solution to use Publish-NavApp, Install-NavApp etc. with a -ServerName parameter. Of course I can set up another instance at the server where I am developing but the changes doesnt affect the instance on the other server until I restart the service.

Is it in any way possible to use -ServerName parameter in these calls or can I make it possible?

Thanks,

Regards from Mattias

    Make a copy of your install/upgrade script for the other server, and change the server name

    Hi DenSter and thank you for your answer.
    If I understand you correctly this means I need to login via RDP to the other server and run the other script there. This is what I am doing at this time but I would like to move away from this solution and be able to run the script from my development server without having to go the extra mile.

    I may however have stumbled upon a solution: Using Invoke-Command to call the other computer/application server. Haven't tried it yet but it seems it could work to connect directly to the other computer without having to access it.
