I have a script that will get most of the HBA information but I am unable to obtain the Firmware version. The only way I have identified to get that information is to invoke plink.exe and I am struggling to make that work. I will post the code here lines 47 to 54 are the problem section at this time.
The invoke-ssh function, called in line 48 resides in lines 11-24 of the script.
Please feel free to use this as you like and if anyone can help me with clearing this last hurdle I would be very grateful!!!
