You should make changes to reflect the paths to your input file. The top line and the bottom line are the same thing just reflecting two paths that I can change between for different server lists.

“monitor”,”Server”,”Instance”,”TorP”,”ErrorLog”,”Ping” are the headers in the sqltab file. Monitor is ‘Y’ or ‘N’, Server is the physical host name, Instance is the instance name and null if default instance, TorP is T for test and P for Prod, Errorlog is the location of the errorlog, and Ping is if I am running my ping servers script against this server.

Hi Colin,

I have some questions regarding the ps script:
1- Could you please tell me how file “monitoringsqltab.txt” look like?
2- What does this stmt mean:
$servers = Import-Csv “ent-pocpacapcx01d$monitoringsqltab.txt”
3- How different of these two input files “monitoringsqltab.txt” and “D:SQL_Servers.txt”
4- On the output file, can you display the SQL version with EE/Standard/Developer edition? Is there any reference to do so?

Thanks,
-VN
