  • Where to Get Copies of the Various Scripts

    September 30, 2011

    Active Directory, NetScaler, PowerShell, PVS, VMware, XenApp, XenApp 5 for Server 2003, XenApp 5 for Server 2008, XenApp 6.0, XenApp 6.5, XenDesktop 5.x

    NOTE:  All current scripts require PowerShell Version 3 or later. 

    All current documentation scripts create a Microsoft Word 2010,  2013, or 2016/2019/O365 document.

    Word 2016, Word 2019 and the Office 365 version of Word have the same version number of 16. All documentation scripts will work with Word 2019 and Word Office 365 with no changes.

    *****All the scripts run best on PowerShell Version 5*****

    Many people have asked me where they can get copies of the various PowerShell documentation scripts. To make it easier to find, I have linked to all of them in this one article.

    All scripts have been moved to the new Downloads page.

    I am leaving this landing page here so I don’t break all the existing links people have to this page.

    Thanks

    Webster

      I am getting an error at Invoke-RestMethod: Unable to connect to the remote server. Is there a port or permission that has to be opened for this script to work?

        I asked Barry who owns this script and here is his reply:

        [the script] “uses basic port 80 so allow non secure communication and open firewall in between script and netscaler”

        Thanks

      Hi Carl,
      I have just tried to run the NetScaler-script on a 11.1 VPX.
      I get a lot of missing sections such as Interfaces, VLANS,etc.
      Is this due to the 11.1 firmware?
      Are there any plans of changing the scrip to support 11.1?
      Regards
      Jeppe

      • Carl Webster Says:
        August 19, 2016 at 7:03 am

        I have sent your query to Barry Schiffer who is the author of the NetScaler script. When I hear from him, I will let you know.

        Thanks

    20. virtualex Says:
      August 18, 2016 at 9:20 pm

      Is it possible to make the parameters and aliases consistent across all of the scripts? For example, I like to add the -ScriptInfo (-SI) parameter when running certain scripts but not all of them have this parameter defined. I mainly only run scripts related to Microsoft AD, DNS, DHCP, GPOs and anything VMware.

      Also there is a need to check for typos in some scripts. For example – there is a type on the new DNS v1.0 script where is says “domain” instead of “domain”. Alike with the VMInventory script…there are references to “VCenter” when it should display as “vCenter”

      Thank much in advance for your excellent work and dedication!

      • Carl Webster Says:
        August 18, 2016 at 9:55 pm

        I don’t control all the scripts. What current script does not have -ScriptInfo? I added it to all the current scripts a while back that I control or had permission to update.

        I have fixed the DNS and VMware scripts with the spelling corrections you mentioned and found a few more.

        The scripts I do not control are:

        NetScaler
        Nutanix
        VMware
        StoreFront

        Thank you for bringing these issues to my attention.

          Understood, thx Carl! Appreciate you taking time to respond and correct the typos I’ve noticed. Of the scripts that I use, I noticed the following do not have -ScriptInfo:

          ADDS Inventory v1.2
          VMware Inventory 1.6 (Understand if you cannot update this one as per your comment above)

          • Carl Webster Says:
            August 19, 2016 at 7:02 am

            Version 2.0 of the AD script has been in development for a while and it will have the -ScriptInfo and other parameters. That script will be released very soon.

            Thanks

            Webster

        • virtualex Says:
          August 19, 2016 at 7:40 am

          Excellent! It would be great if the -log parameter could be added to any scripts that you are allowed to manage/update and for it to output it to the same directory you specify for the reports and scriptinfo. Let me know if this is at all possible.

          I checked the VMware script and noticed it still has uppercase “V” instead of lowercase “v” in the word “vCenter”. Possibly as you stated you don’t control this script so I have edited it on my end. Would be good for it to be in the proper branding format, but not a big deal. Looking forward to the new updates! Keep up the great work!

          • Carl Webster Says:
            August 19, 2016 at 7:49 am

            I am not seeing any VCenter in the code. All I see is vCenter. Just to be sure, I uploaded the files again just to make sure. Please check again.

            Thanks

          Carl – something else I have noticed when running any of the scripts is that it never adds the company name even tho I specify it with the parameter. It is not hardcoded in the registry as I’d like to be able to manually specify it when running the script. Is this a bug? I use -CompanyName “SomeName” or -CN “SomeName” but it never adds it.

          • Carl Webster Says:
            August 19, 2016 at 1:41 pm

            Sideline is the default cover page because it is the only cover page that exists in Word 2007/2010/2013/2016 and in all languages of Word. But, in Word 2013 and 2016, Sideline does not show the company name. I usually use Whisp in Word 2013 and 2016. That shows the company name.

        You have to wait for me to find the time to update the script for 7.8 and 7.9. I do the scripts in my spare time and that has been in extreme short supply this yer.

      • Gert Nielsen Says:
        June 30, 2016 at 10:55 am

        With some of the scripts output format TEXT and HTML doesn’t work. I think those switches in some of the scripts are just placeholders

        For example XD7 documentation scripts works with TEST and HTML, but Netscaler doesn’t.

        • Carl Webster Says:
          July 1, 2016 at 11:22 am

          I didn’t write the NetScaler script. Not all the scripts support HTML or Text, yet. I only work on the scripts in my spare time and just haven’t found the time to update the rest of my scripts.

      Hi Carl,

      I was wondering is there was a way to extract only the installed and missing hotfixes and HRP’s from XA65_Inventory_V42.ps1. The Word report is great but the manager wants it quarterly and the admins prefer a monthly list of installed and missing updates.

      Tnx,
      Timotatty

      • Carl Webster Says:

        Run the script with -Section Servers to get only the servers section which will include the hotfix info.

      • Carl Webster Says:

        If you are not running the signed script, you can change the value yourself at line 23304:

        #set value for MaxRecordCount
        $Script:MaxRecordCount = [int]::MaxValue

        Is the script returning too much data for you?

        Thanks for the kind words.

        Always willing to have people help with the scripts. Barry Schiffer and Iain Brighton created the NetScaler script. You will need to contact Barry for the NetScaler script. If you do not have Barry’s contact info, email me and I will give it to you.

        Thanks

        Webster

      Hi Carl, loving the scripts! On the Netscaler script is it possible to capture the Network and Client Experience settings for the Netscaler Gateway Session policies?

      Thanks

      Barry

      Very helpful. Thank you.
      What about XenDesktop 7.x (or XenApp 7.x)?
      🙂
