A system and method are provided for controlling multiple computer platforms. The method can include the operation of storing command line tasks in a database. Other command line task information can include a command name, related parameters, and a platform type for which the command line tasks are executable. A command line task can be selected from the database of command line tasks by a user for application to computing systems. A further operation is identifying at least one computing system that can be addressed from a host system and which has the same platform type as the selected command line task. The user can then select at least one computing system from a list of the identified computing systems to which the selected command line is applicable. Another operation is applying the selected command line tasks to the selected computing systems which are of a correct platform type.
