Hello. I found a PowerShell script online that does a really nice report for drive drives from an input file. In the future I will make it query all servers using Get-QADComputer -sizelimit 0 -OSName 'server' -LdapFilter '(!(userAccountControl] but for now it uses an input txt file. What I don’t have a clue about how to do though is set specific thresholds or exclusions on specific drives. For example, we have some servers that we know have a drive at 99% utilization but its okay because the data is static. Another drive might be a SQL drive in which the DB is expanded or whatever and we want to exclude that specific drive on that specific server from monitoring.
I would like to have the script read from a text file to get these exclusions. For example maybe the file could have something like the following:
Server1,D,0 (which would mean don’t monitor drive D at all)
Server2,E,3 (which would mean only alert at 3% and not the standard set in the script)
Server3 (Don’t get drive utilization for any drives on Server3)
Would anyone know how to do this? Thanks!

Try this. Note that i haven’t tested it, I need to grab lunch.#To import the CSV
#Path to the Special Handling rules csv file
$csvPath = ""
#get array of disks and special handling rules
$specialHandlingRules = Import-Csv $csvPath
#To be inserted in the for-each disk loop
#Check for special handling instructions for this server and disk
$specialRules = $specialHandlingRules | where {$.Server -eq $computer -and $_.Disk -eq $disk.DeviceID}
#set a flag for wether the disk should be ignored for warnings or not.
$ignoreWarnings = $false
#if there are any special rules for this, adjust prameters for it
if ($specialRules.Count -gt 0)
{
# just in case you want multiple rules to be applicable to each disk.
foreach ($rule in $specialRules)
{
switch ($rule.Type)
{
0 {
#Set the $percentwarning to 0, supressing the warning.
$percentWarning = 0
}
2 {
#Set flag to ignore all errors
$ignoreWarnings = $false
}
}
}
}
#to replace your current $i++ line
if (!$ignoreWarnings)
{
$i++
}
It’s not the most efficient way to process things but it should work.
You could make life a lot easier by using the ConvertTo-HTML commandlet, possibly mixing it in with Don’s creating HTML reports using powershell tricks. Also think about seperating the code out into functions. Long scripts like this are a lot easier to develop but a pain to maintain and a royal pain to debug. Putting in functions early makes testing and, over time, development a lot easier.
