My requirement is i wanted to convert this output to excel format for submitting to management. Below is the excel format that i am thinking...to have from above script...
I've rewritten this, but I didn't test the full script and it's not optimized. If you encounter any
problems, feel free to contact me.
$statuses = @()
$servers = get-content "c:\list.txt"
$splitter = [regex]"\s+"
foreach ($server in $servers)
{
$command = "quser /server:$server"
$lines = @((invoke-expression $command | Out-String) -split "`n")
#remove header
$lines = $lines[1..$lines.count]
foreach ($line in $lines)
{
$attrs = @($splitter.Split($line.Trim(),6))
if ( $attrs -eq 6 )
{
$status = New-Object PSCustomObject -Property @{
"SERVER"=$server;
"USERNAME"=$attrs[0];
"SESSIONNAME"=$attrs[1];
"ID"=$attrs[2];
"STATE"=$attrs[3];
"IDLE_TIME"=$attrs[4];
"LOGON_TIME"=[datetime]$attrs[5]}
$statuses += $status
}
}
}
#your filter here
#$statuses = $statuses | where{ XXXXX }
$statuses | Export-Csv G:/test.csv -NoTypeInformation
You need to convert PSObject to an excel compatible Array and after you can write this array in excel sheet
include this code in your *.PS1 script, and use like this : get-process | Export-Excel

NAME: ConvertTo-MultiArray
AUTHOR: Tome Tanasovski

Version: 1.2
.Synopsis
Converts a collection of PowerShell objects into a multi-dimensional array
.Description
Converts a collection of PowerShell objects into a multi-dimensional array. The first row of the array contains the property names. Each additional row contains the values for each object.
This cmdlet was created to act as an intermediary to importing PowerShell objects into a range of cells in Exchange. By using a multi-dimensional array you can greatly speed up the process of adding data to Excel through the Excel COM objects.
.Parameter InputObject
Specifies the objects to export into the multi dimensional array. Enter a variable that contains the objects or type a command or expression that gets the objects. You can also pipe objects to ConvertTo-MultiArray.
.Inputs
System.Management.Automation.PSObject
You can pipe any .NET Framework object to ConvertTo-MultiArray
.Outputs
[ref]
The cmdlet will return a reference to the multi-dimensional array. To access the array itself you will need to use the Value property of the reference
.Example
$arrayref = get-process |Convertto-MultiArray
.Example
$dir = Get-ChildItem c:\
$arrayref = Convertto-MultiArray -InputObject $dir
.Example
$range.value2 = (ConvertTo-MultiArray (get-process)).value
