My issue exists in another question here. I'm wondering whether it's possible to activate a scheduled task on one server from the command line of another server. I do not want to use psexec as it is known to be an enabled of malware and viruses. Does anyone know if this is possible?

You can use the the commands below to stop and start tasks remotely.
Stop:
schtasks /end /s <machine name> /U Username /P password /tn <task name>
Start:
schtasks /run /s <machine name> /U Username /P password /tn <task name>

Awesome. This worked. I also utilize the information here to have the batch wait for the scheduled task to complete: stackoverflow.com/questions/20261639/… Commented Jul 23, 2014 at 21:15
