Powershell:- Display Data in Columns

Hi,

I hope that you can help, I have written a powershell script that pings all our external routers (Router Names held in a txt file) and then outputs the results/status to a HTML page, for the IT Department to read.

Unfortuntely this page is quite long and goes beyond a screen length, what I need help on is rather than having a page with two columns (Router Name, Status) is for the page to be displayed as 4 Columns (Router Name, Status, Router Name, Status).

Any help would be grealty appreciated.

Thanks

Deploying SSRS Reports using Powershell Method not found

I'm using this template from TechNet to deploy my SSRS reports with powershell...

http://gallery.technet.microsoft.com/Bulk-Report-Deployment-f03e1aac/view/Discussions

This line gives me an unknown method error...

 $Warnings = $SSRSProxy.CreateReport($_.ReportName, $_.TargetReportFolder, $True, $Bytes, $Null)

So I replaced the method "CreateReport" with "CreateCatalogItem". But when I try to run it with my server information it yields...

"Cannot find an overload for "CreateCatalogItem" and the argument count: "5".
At C:\Users\mike.davis\Desktop\Test\REPORTS\TPF Report\TPF Report\bin\Debug\Bulk SSRS Report Deployment with PowerShell.ps1:26 char:45

    + CategoryInfo          : NotSpecified: (:) [], MethodException
    + FullyQualifiedErrorId : MethodCountCouldNotFindBest"

What is the correct method to use in this situation when I have ReportingServices2010?

Powershell-3 on Windows Server 2008 R2 is incredibly slow. How come?

Hello,

I installed powershell-3 using Powershell_3.0_Windows6.1-KB2506143-x64.msu.

Now powershell takes a felt eternity just to expand
get-he
in the powershell command line to get-help. It consumes 98% of the CPU time.
So I decided to uninstall this KB. Worked ok. Got back Powershell-2. Was behaving normal again.

So I wanted to make sure and was hoping when re-installing KB2506143 that this error would be gone.
But as powershell-3 is back on the server, so is this intolerable delay in the powershell command line.

Would anybody know how to remedy this? After all powershell-3 has left the beta state.

Also too bad that there is no repair function in programs and features.

Thank you.

Hi,

We have a NAS (NetApp) that has shared some folders (not hidden ones). I looking for a way to enumerate these shares so I can use these shares to locate resources that are places on these shares. Since this is not a Windows server I can't use WMI to query the list of shares.

Anyone have an idea or example on how I can list the shares of a remote CIFS box that isn't capable of WMI?

Export-CSV issue with custom Members & Null objects

I have created a function to give me all of the custom receive connector IP's we have added to our exchange server and pop them out in a custom set for ease of reading. As the RemoteIPs are an array with an array from the Get-ReceiveConnector I had to do this to get all of the information into a nice set how I wanted. This worked fine when I wanted to print the data to the screen - But I would prefer a CSV file - But due to the way i have had to create all of the custom objects, some (with less remote ips) end up with $null values so I get an error when trying to export to CSV.

your help is appreciated:

	ForEach ($RC in $RConnectors)

				$RemoteIPs = $RC.RemoteIpRanges
