You set the silent mode on a client, in Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager 2007, by creating an instance of the CCMUpdatesDeployment COM Automation Class and by using the SetUserExperienceFlag method.

To set the silent mode on clients

Create a CCMUpdatesDeployment instance by using the CCMUpdatesDeployment COM class.
Set the silent mode by using the SetUserExperienceFlag method.

Example

The following example method shows how to set the silent mode on a client by using the CCMUpdatesDeployment COM class and the SetUserExperienceFlag method.

For information about calling the sample code, see How to Call Configuration Manager COM Automation Objects

Sub SetSilentModeonClient(newUserExperienceFlag)

    ' Initialize the updatesDeployment variable.
    dim updatesDeployment
    
    ' Create the COM object.
    set updatesDeployment = CreateObject ("UDA.CCMUpdatesDeployment")

    ' Set silent mode on the client by using the SetUserExperienceFlag method
    ' and the newUserExperienceFlag (set with a value of 2) passed in.
    updatesDeployment.SetUserExperienceFlag newUserExperienceFlag
    
    ' Output success message.
    wscript.echo "Set Silent Mode."

End Sub

public void SetSilentModeonClients(uint newUserExperienceFlag)
{
    try
    {
        // Create the UpdatesDeployment instance.
        UPDATESDEPLOYMENTLib.CCMUpdatesDeploymentClass newCCMUpdatesDeployment = new UPDATESDEPLOYMENTLib.CCMUpdatesDeploymentClass();

       // Set silent mode on the client by using the SetUserExperienceFlag method
       // and the newUserExperienceFlag (set with a value of 2) passed in.
        newCCMUpdatesDeployment.SetUserExperienceFlag(newUserExperienceFlag);

        // Output a success message.
        Console.WriteLine("Ran SetUserExperience.");
    }

    catch (COMException ex)
    {
        Console.WriteLine("Failed to run SetUserExperience method. Error: " + ex.Message);
        throw;
    }

}

The example method has the following parameters:

Parameter

Type

Description

newUserExperienceFlag

Managed: Integer
VBScript: Integer

The value to set the user experience flag. This value determines the user experience mode that determines what is displayed and how software updates are received and installed on a target computer.

Compiling the Code

This C# example requires:

Namespaces

System

System.Runtime.InteropServices

UPDATESDEPLOYMENTLib COM Automation Library

COM Automation

The reference that is needed for early binding is UpdatesDeploymentAgent 1.0 Type Library. This creates a type library reference named UPDATESDEPLOYMENTLib. The early binding object name for the Control Panel Manager is CCMUpdatesDeploymentClass.
