Remove snapshot of server and then send a mail to me when the job is finished.

Hi all,

Could someone help me with a script that would do this?

Is this along the lines of what you are looking for ?

$snaps = Get-VM | Get-Snapshot
Remove-Snapshot -Snapshot $snaps -Confirm:$false

$emailFrom = "from@somedomain.com" 
$emailTo = "to@somedomain.com" 
$subject = "All snapshots are removed" 
$body = $snaps | select VM,Name,Created,SizeMB | ft -AutoSize | Out-String 
$smtpServer = "smtpserver"

$smtp = new-object Net.Mail.SmtpClient($smtpServer)
$smtp.Send($emailFrom, $emailTo, $subject, $body)
