Renaming Computers

Hello.

Is there a way to rename computers on KACE using a script or any other options for non-domain-joined computers? For example, if I have 10 computers that are not domain joined nor are they on ActiveDirectory, would the only option to rename them be manually at the device one-by-one? Thank you.

Could just do it with scripting.


Powershell:

Rename-Computer -NewName NEWCOMPNAME -Restart
-or-

Rename-Computer -NewName NEWCOMPNAME (without the restart)


CMD:
WMIC computersystem where caption='current_pc_name' rename new_pc_name
