Script for getting hardware version

[peter79]

Guys,

Does anyone have a PowerShell script that could get all VM's with a particular virtual hardware version (VM version 4 in this instance) and output it to a excel file (or any type file really)?

Thanks.

Try this

Get-VM | where{$_.Extensiondata.Config.Version -eq "vmx-04"} | Select Name | Export-Csv "C:\VM-HW4.csv" -NoTypeInformation

You can use Alan Renouf's vCheck script from www.virtu-al.net. That script returns vm's with hardware version 4.

You can also use this script, since it's much faster than retrieving the ExtensionData property:

# You can specify either "v4" or "v7" for hardware version
Get-VM | where {$_.Version -eq "v4"} | select name
