This video demonstrates the following actions:

1. Copy an external, non-NSH script into the directory that is used by scriptutil. Then perform a test run of the script, using scriptutil through NSH.
2. On the Local Configuration Objects tab in an existing component template, create an extended object in which scriptutil executes your external script.
3. On the Parts tab, ensure that a part was automatically created for the extended object, and create an additional part for the extended object entry.
4. On the Compliance tab, create a compliance rule that contains the part that represents your extended object entry. Then test the rule.
