Where to Get Copies of the Various Scripts

333

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

    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?

    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
      August 18, 2016,

      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.

      Webster

      • virtualex
        August 19, 2016,

        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
          August 19, 2016,

          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
        August 19, 2016,

        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
          August 19, 2016,

          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.

        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
          August 19, 2016,

          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.

      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.

      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

    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
