SUMMARY
=======
The scripts to install Systems Management Server on a computer (SMSLS.BAT and
RUNSMS.BAT) depend on having a certain amount of environment space available.
Without creating environment variables it would be very difficult for Systems
Management Server to support the various operating systems which it does.
MORE INFORMATION
================
If the necessary space is not available when the script is started, the script
will attempt to create a new command shell with additional free space, and make
another attempt to execute the script file (there are safeguards against extra
recursion). This is accomplished by a command similar to:
command /e:2048 /c %0\..\smsls.bat
This implementation works for all the operating systems that typically experience
this problem (MS-DOS, Windows 3.1, Windows for Workgroups, and Windows 95).
If the new command shell is needed, Out of Environment Space messages may be
generated by the operating system; these are not errors. If SMSLS.BAT is called
from within a logon script and this message occurs, it can be eliminated by
calling SMSLS.BAT with a command similar to:
call command /e:2048 /c %0\..\smsls.bat
