Get global policies

[sumbr]

This script is used to collect global policies. For ex - The global cap policy is a global policy that specifies whether policy-driven chassis group power capping or manual blade-level power capping will be applied to all servers in a chassis.

Hello,

I am about to give up on power shell!

I have tried to use this script.

I Connect to my UCS and run this script without editing at all.

It comes back with an invoke with one argument error.

Is this because I have not edited the script first?

Many Thanks for any help

Hi,

I still have an issue.

If I connect to my ucs with connect-ucs 10.x.x.x

Then what is this section for and do I not just run .\Get-UcsGlobalPolicy.ps1 from the command line?

I am sure I must be missing something?

Thanks

Sam

Hi Sam,

What is the error you are getting?

Here is what you can try to get the Global policies using this script.

Establish a connection to your UCS using this statement

$ucsConnection = Connect-Ucs 10.x.x.x

then run the script as mentioned below.

Get-UcsGlobalPolicy.ps1 $ucsConnection.Ucs

Hope this helps. Let us know if you have further questions.

Thanks,

Hi Sam,

Can you try following, if you want to run it from desktop.

.\Get-UcsGlobalPolicy.ps1 $ucsConnection.Ucs

PowerTool C:\Users\sam.wharton.EU\Desktop>.\Get-UcsGlobalPolicy.ps1 $ucsConnection.Ucs

Hi Sam,

This seems to be a path issue. Where is the script located on your system? Can you please traverse to the directory where the script is present and from there you can run the script with the syntax mentioned below.

$ucsConnection = Connect-Ucs <UCSNAME>

.\Get-UcsGlobalPolicy.ps1 $ucsConnection.Name.

Thanks,

Sumanth
