Hello all,
I'm have a couple of things I'm trying to do in a script and I'm having
problems, I was hoping someone here could help. I'm attempting to get UTC and
local time which is easy enough with the current time statement, how ever it
gets the list with out the machine name. I also want to pull the name from
win32_operatingsystem property csname rather than trust that the server list
file has the correct name rather than an alias. The problem is when I run
this it excutes the first command and returns a value then it just prints the
next command out rather than execute it.

Any help is much appreciated!



$TextFile = "C:\ServerList_Test.txt"
$ServerList = [System.IO.File]::OpenText($TextFile)
while($Machine = $ServerList.ReadLine())
{ Get-WmiObject win32_operatingsystem -computer $Machine | `
Select-Object -Property CSName}
{ Get-WmiObject win32_currenttime -computer $Machine | `
Select-Object -Property Year,Month,Day,Hour,Minute,Second | `
Format-Table –auto }
$ServerList.Close()

Does this do what your looking for?
$TextFile = Get-Content "C:\ServerList_Test.txt"
$result = @()
foreach($Srv in $textFile)
{
Write-Host (Get-WmiObject Win32_OperatingSystem -ComputerName
$Srv).CSName
$time = Get-WmiObject Win32_CurrentTime -ComputerName $Srv
$time | Format-Table Year,Month,Day,Hour,Minute,Second -Auto
}

Another option is to Create a custom Object so you can play with it later
Understand this is a little more verbose, but much more powerful
$TextFile = Get-Content "C:\ServerList_Test.txt"
$result = @()
foreach($Srv in $textFile)
{
$sObject = "" | select
Server,Year,Month,Day,Hour,Minute,Second,utcYear,utcMonth,utcDay,utcHour,utcMinute,utcSecond
$sObject.Server = (Get-WmiObject Win32_OperatingSystem -ComputerName
$Srv).CSName
$time = Get-WmiObject Win32_CurrentTime -ComputerName $Srv
# Local
$sObject.Year = $time[0].Year
$sObject.Month = $time[0].Month
$sObject.Day = $time[0].Day
$sObject.Hour = $time[0].Hour
$sObject.Minute = $time[0].Minute
$sObject.Second = $time[0].Second
# UTC Properties
$sObject.utcYear = $time[1].Year
$sObject.utcMonth = $time[1].Month
$sObject.utcDay = $time[1].Day
$sObject.utcHour = $time[1].Hour
$sObject.utcMinute = $time[1].Minute
$sObject.utcSecond = $time[1].Second
$result += $sObject
}

$result | Format-Table Server,Year,Month,Day,Hour,Minute,Second
$result | Format-Table
Server,utcYear,utcMonth,utcDay,utcHour,utcMinute,utcSecond
