List VM's that are connected to more than 1 Portgroup

[PeterVG]

Hi all,

We have a DMZ Vmware cluster & for security reasons our security guys want to be informed on a daily basis if there have been VM's configured with 2 network connections, something they don't allow...

So am trying to do this with Powershell: my idea was to have a script output all the VM's with more than 1 portgroup & possibly listing all the portgroups to which it is attached.

The problem is that I don't know how to filter the VM's with 1 PG connection with the ones that have 2 or more connections.

Anybody an idea ?

Thanks in advance !

This script prints all guests that have more than 1 network connection.

$vms = Get-VM
foreach($vm in $vms){
  $pgs = Get-VirtualPortGroup -VM $vm | select Name
  if($pgs.Count -gt 1){
   $pgsLine = ""
   foreach($pg in $pgs){
     $pgsLine += ($pg.Name + " ")
   }
   Write-Host $vm.Name $pgsLine
  }
}

Or you could use a one-liner that shows the guestname and the number of portgroups it is connected too.

Get-VM | %{$vm = $_.Name; Get-VirtualPortGroup -VM $_ | Measure-Object | %{Write-Host $vm $_.Count}}

And you can include a filter to only display the guests with more than 1 portgroup.

Get-VM | %{$vm = $_.Name; Get-VirtualPortGroup -VM $_ | Measure-Object | where {$_.Count -gt 1} | %{Write-Host $vm $_.Count}}
