$firstValue = $value[0]
$SecondValue = $value[1]
$dictionary.Add($firstValue,$SecondValue)
}
}I got error message and it says:
"Method invocation failed because [System.Object[]] doesn't contain a method named 'Add'.
At line:28 char:28
+ $dictionary.Add <<<< ($firstValue,$SecondValue)

Hi,
It seems like an easy question but it appears there are lots of ways to do this. I've been trying to run some dos commands to run NTBackup using start-process and arguments but the arguments are being passed in the wrong format and I can't see where. Is there any other way to run this simple command. Here is my previous link http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windowsserver/en-US/b92541c4-83ce-4740-a3c5-1bb776a5c00d/running-ntbackup-with-startprocess
c:\windows\system32\ntbackup.exe backup @(Documents and Settings\Administrator\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Windows NT\NTBackup\data\chameme.bks`"" ,"/n `"1file.bkf1 created 06/09/2013 at 09:36`"" ,"/d `"Set created 06/09/2013 at 09:36`" "," /v:no", "/r:no" , "/rs:no" , "/hc:off", "/m normal", "/j `"chameme`""," /l:s"," /f `"\\fs1\Exchange Backups$\1file.bkf`"")
My only requirement is that I need to datestamp the file name with the date as NTBackup can't do anything like this... I have some cloud backup software that doesn't like massive files so this is why I need individually date stamped files from the backup.
Thanks

I've downloaded and installed the Windows Update modules for powershell. The commands work perfectly locally but fails to work remotely. I am able to run other commands remotely such as Get-Culture.
Windows Update Module:
https://gallery.technet.microsoft.com/scriptcenter/2d191bcd-3308-4edd-9de2-88dff796b0bc
Example Code:
Invoke-Command -ComputerName test_server -Credential domain\me -ScriptBlock {Get-WUHistory}
Output:
The term 'Get-WUHistory' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program.

Hello,
Using the powershell command:
Get-Content "Filename" -Wait -Tail 10
showing Real-Time contents of a file in powershell doesn't work.
As example i would like to show Real-Time contents of a systemout.log file in a IBM Websphere Environment.
Using the above command, the shell remain in "listening mode" but nothing happens even if the Systemout.log file changes.
In a unix environment it is enough to type "tail -f filename" and everything work correctly.
Is it possible to use a "tail -f" equivalent command in Powershell to show real time logging?
Thank You in advance.

Hello all! I am very new to powershell scripting. I have some experience with cmdlets but get a bit fuzzy when throwing them together in a script. Especially when importing/exporting a csv file.
So here is what I have and need... any help would be extremely helpful:
I have a csv file named "Users" with a header of "ID". In the ID column, I have the login IDs of over 500 users and I need to get the login IDs of their managers and export both (the original users ID in a column named "User" and
their managers' login IDs in a column named "Mgr").
Again, any help would be extremely appreciative
Is there a way to use PowerShell to export all AD groups that are NOT empty AND also that the "Managed by" is not empty.
Basically, I need all the group names that meet both criteria and also the login ID of the "Managed By" exported to csv.
Can anyone tell me if this is possible and how to accomplish?
Hello All,
I have a requirement where I have to update valid phone numbers from bulk users.
To test if it valid, I have to check the length of only the numerals (it should 11 to 12 max)
For ex:
$a = (+1) 201 839 8419
In the above example all the special characters and space has to be removed (final result should be 12018398419), I don't want to use multiple replace command and want to do it through regex, could you please help??
The below command is not working
string result = Regex.Replace($b, @"[^\d]","");
Any help please??
Never giveup till you get what to want.

Hi developer,
I have already made script in windows powershell.
For example: Two integers variables then sum ( {5,5} make 10. )
Here is my script:
function TwoValues($input)
{
$regex = "({.*?})"
$matchInfo = @($input | Select-String -Pattern $regex -AllMatches)
$dictionary = @{}
foreach($minfo in $matchInfo)
{
foreach($match in @($minfo.Matches | Foreach {$_.Groups[0].value}))
{
$element = $match.Substring(1, $match.Length - 2);
[array]$value = $element.Split(',');
[int]$add = [int]::Parse($value[0]) + [int]::Parse($value[1])
$dictionary.Add($add)
}
}
return $dictionary
}
Write-Host "Number of Arg=" $args.Length
foreach($arg in $args)
{
$twoValues = TwoValues($arg)
Write-Host "$twoValues"
}The function is fine but the only problem is command line argument.
I put .\....ps1 {5,5} in powershell command line argument. i got display output and it says:
Number of Arg= 1
System.Collections.Hashtable
Any Idea?
Thanks
Hi there,
I have a csv file which looks like:
DriveName;Size
Drive_D;10GB
Then I use following two commands to create a new vhd file.
$disk=import-csv -Path C:\temp\Drives.csv -Delimiter ";"
$disk | select * -first 1 | %{New-VHD –Path C:\ClusterStorage\Volume1\Server1\Server1_$($_.DriveName).vhdx –SizeBytes $_.Size -Fixed}
However, I get following error message:
New-VHD : Cannot bind parameter 'SizeBytes'. Cannot convert value "2GB" to type "System.UInt64". Error: "Input string was not in a correct format."
At line:1 char:127
+ ... hdx –SizeBytes $_.Size -Fixed}
+ ~~~~~~~
+ CategoryInfo : InvalidArgument: (:) [New-VHD], ParameterBindingException
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : CannotConvertArgumentNoMessage,Microsoft.Vhd.PowerShell.NewVhdCommand
Any hint how I can get this to work?
