A question was asked about a specific script from the ControlUp Script Library that powers on a virtual machine. The user asked if the script could also run a custom script on the local VM, explaining that their base image requires a specific patch agent service to be enabled and started at power on and disabled at shutdown. Another member replied that the script only performs a poweron action through CUmonitor and uses the hypervisor connection already set up. No reference is included in this summary.

Can this also run a custom script locally on the VM (Golden Image)? Our base needs a patch agent service to be enabled and started at power on and stopped and disabled at shutdown of the base image.

Hi @member this script does a poweron action from a CUmonitor and uses the hypervisor connection you have set up to perform the power on. Hope that helps.
