This code is writing more than the desired ".... Assigning tag "$Tag" in Category "$category" to VM "$Name" ". The 2nd and 3rd lines of output are not wanted. How can I just write .... Assigning tag test in Category environment to VM blank, without the additional lines?
$csv = Read-Host "Please enter the .CSV path\filename to import i.e. c:\tags\ad.csv"
$category = Read-Host "Please enter the tag category i.e. agency, os, environment, etc."
$Tag = Read-Host "Please enter the tag to assign to the VMs"
#$pathDev = "C:\tags\"
#set-location $pathDev
$CMDBInfo = Import-CSV "$csv"
ForEach ($item in $CMDBInfo)
{
# Write-Host "$item"
$Name = $item.Name
# $Tag = "ad"
Write-Host ".... Assigning tag "$Tag" in Category "$category" to VM "$Name" "
$vm = Get-VM -Name $Name
{Get-TagAssignment -Entity $vm | where{$_.Tag.Category -eq $category} | Remove-TagAssignment -Confirm:$false (([uri]$vm.ExtensionData.Client.ServiceUrl).Host)}
New-TagAssignment -Entity $vm -Tag $Tag -Server (([uri]$vm.ExtensionData.Client.ServiceUrl).Host)
}
Output:
.... Assigning tag test in Category environment to VM idmtestDNR
Get-TagAssignment -Entity $vm | where{$_.Tag.Category -eq $category} | Remove-TagAssignment -Confirm:$false (([uri]$vm.ExtensionData.Client.ServiceUrl).Host)
