All,



I want to update this script to output the servername and session count on the same line. I am having some trouble and would like a point in the right direction to get the out correct or like I want it.



Here is the code I am working on…



$servers = Get-Content -Path C:\Load_Stuff\MonitoringScripts\Env2_TS_Servers.txt
ForEach ($server in $servers) {Get-TSSession -ComputerName $server | Measure-Object -Line; '’ * 4;Write-Host $server }

PS C:\Load_Stuff\MonitoringScripts\PowerShell> .\GetActiveSessionTOTAL_Count.ps1

Lines Words Characters Property
----- ----- ---------- --------
36

ts06.LOAD.LOCAL
43

ts07.LOAD.LOCAL
44

ts08.LOAD.LOCAL
44

ts09.LOAD.LOCAL
37


*****************************************************

This is the output format I am wanting to get to.

PS C:\Load_Stuff\MonitoringScripts\PowerShell> .\GetActiveSessionTOTAL_Count.ps1

Lines Words Characters Property
----- ----- ---------- --------


ts06.LOAD.LOCAL 36

ts07.LOAD.LOCAL 43

ts08.LOAD.LOCAL 44

ts09.LOAD.LOCAL 45

There’s probably a dozen ways to do that.
Here’s one (most of your original code is unchanged)
$servers =
Get-Content -Path C:\Load_Stuff\MonitoringScripts\Env2_TS_Servers.txt

ForEach ($server in $servers)
{
[string]{
Get-TSSession -ComputerName $server |
Measure-Object -Line
$Server
}.invoke()
'' * 4
}

mjolinor,

Can you tell me what that is called? Part of my problem is not knowing what the right term is to ask my question.

Testing code now…


Thanks
Rob

mjolinor,

I am running into an issue with the output now…What am I doing wrong?

Here is the output…

PS C:\Load_Stuff\MonitoringScripts\PowerShell> . ‘C:\Load_Stuff\MonitoringScripts\PowerShell\GetActiveSessionListENV2.ps1’
Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.TextMeasureInfo ts06.LOAD.LOCAL

Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.TextMeasureInfo ts07.LOAD.LOCAL

Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.TextMeasureInfo ts08.LOAD.LOCAL

Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.TextMeasureInfo ts09.LOAD.LOCAL


Here is the code…

$servers =
Get-Content -Path C:\Load_Stuff\MonitoringScripts\Env2_TS_Servers.txt

ForEach ($server in $servers)
{
[string]{
Get-TSSession -ComputerName $server |
Measure-Object -Line
$Server
}.invoke()
'’ * 4
}

Try this:
$servers =
Get-Content -Path C:\Load_Stuff\MonitoringScripts\Env2_TS_Servers.txt

ForEach ($server in $servers)
{
[string]{
$Server
(Get-TSSession -ComputerName $server |
Measure-Object -Line).lines
}.invoke()
'' * 4
}

Basically, it’s wrapping what you want to output in a script block (enclosing it in {} makes it a script block). The .invoke() on the end executes the script block, which returns the output of the script block as a collection of lines. Casting it to [string] turns the individual lines into a single string, with the Output Field Separator between each one. The Output Field separator is controlled by an automatic variable ($ofs). The default is a space. If you change $ofs to something else, that will be inserted between the computer name and the line count. It can be multiple characters (e.g. $ofs = ’ = ')
