Hi,

The task are below.

1. Need to check the VM is powered off.

2. If powered off, I need to rename the display name.

3. Add the notes in the VM

4. Convert it to template

Looking for experts help to reduce my manual work. Thanks in advance.

Try something like this

foreach($vm in (Get-VM | where {$_.PowerState -eq "PoweredOff"})){
    Set-VM -VM $vm -Name $newname -Notes $description -Confirm:$false
    $template = Set-VM -VM $vm -ToTemplate -Confirm:$false
    Move-Template -Destination (Get-Folder -Name "New Folder") -Template $template -Confirm:$false
}

if possible Could you please modify this script based on this requirement.

The script should prompt for VM name and description. As i don't have idea how to amend this changes in this script, I am just hitting you again.

Thanks in advance.
