inventory of sql server info

  • I am trying to use this powershell script to pull SQL Server information and place it in a table. It works great if I pass the server names in a comma delimited list. But I need it to work by pulling the list from the CMS(Central Management Server). The output from that query is a list of servers (1 per line). It works for other scripts but not this one.

    Here is the whole script but it is the last few lines I am having a problem with.

    # Assume you have SQLServer PowerShell module installed
    # on the server where you execute this script

    Import-Module sqlserver -DisableNameChecking;

    function Get-SQLDBInventory
    {
    [cmdletbinding()]
    Param( [Parameter(Mandatory=$false, ValueFromPipeline=$true)]
    [Alias("SQLServer","Instance")]
    [string[]]$ServerInstance = $env:computername
    )

    [string]$qry = @"
    set nocount on;
    if object_id('tempdb..#t', 'U') is not null

    foreach ($svr in $ServerInstance)
    { Write-verbose "processing:$svr"
    try {
    write-host "Processing $svr" -ForegroundColor Green
    $dt=invoke-sqlcmd -ServerInstance $svr -Database master -Query $qry `
    -QueryTimeout 120 -OutputAs DataTables;
    $dt2.merge($dt); #append result to $dt2
    }
    catch

    #####THIS WORKS GREAT PERFECTLY######
    #$dt2 = Get-SQLDBInventory -serverinstance 'server1','server2','server3'

    #it only pulls information for the 1st server and then exits.
    $allservers = Get-DbaCmsRegServer -SqlInstance localhost -Group CMS_SQLGROUP | Select-Object -Unique -ExpandProperty ServerName
    $dt2 = $allservers | get-sqldbinventory

    Write-SqlTableData -ServerInstance localhost -DatabaseName DBAdmin -SchemaName dbo -TableName DBInventory -InputData $dt2;
  • Thanks for posting your issue and hopefully someone will answer soon.

    This is an automated bump to increase visibility of your question.

  • Wouldn't you want to use a ForEach loop to process these? You're trying to pass the array to get-sqldbinventory but $ServerInstance is defined as a string, not an array.

    I don't have the modules installed, but I would expect something more like:

    foreach ($Server in $AllServers){
    Get-SqlDbInventory -ServerInstance $Server.Name #don't know what the actual name of the property is
    }

    Excuse my typos and sometimes awful grammar. My fingers work faster than my brain does.
