Greetings all!
Found a jewel of a script to check for HBA path status that gives me exactly what I need, except it does it for all the hosts in the vCenter and I am having trouble making it work against a list of host names in text file.
For the record, this was posted by a Kath @ https://practical-admin.com/blog/powercli-show-hba-path-status/ as a response to a similar script that wasn't working well. Thank you kindly!
Now, I have tested other scripts also written to query all hosts and was able to modify them to work with a host list by using:
$list = @(Get-Content "path-to-hostlist.txt")
$export = @()
foreach ($Item in $list) {
$vmhost = get-vmhost | where Name -match $Item
if ($vmhost) {
Or
$exportData = @()
$esxs=gc path-to-hostlist.txt
foreach($esxi in $esxs){
$esx = Get-VMHost -Name $esxi
But the script below is kicking my you-know-what with gusto and I can only get it work partially as some functions break after my changes.
Looking for help from someone with the know-how to make the tweak.
Many, many thanks!
