How can I make a script that will reboot POS PC's only, @ 3am?

    I'm relatively new to scripting and Kace1000 - So any and all help would be greatly appreciated.   Thank you,

You would need a label that identifies the POS systems and apply that label to them.  This could be a manual label or a smart label.

Once you have that, you could run a kscript that reboots the systems.  The label you created would target the script to the specific POS systems.

If your POS systems run Windows, it can be as simple as running "shutdown.exe /r".  There is a built in example of this in the K1000 that you could duplicate and modify under the name "Shutdown a Windows system".
