VMWare Snapshots Report

VMWare Snapshots Report

A quick powershell script using HTML and CSS to run against your VMware Environment utilising PowerCLI to pull back a report of your snapshots.

This can be useful for reclaiming space and making the most of your storage or to spot somewhere that you have a usage issue.

Powershell – Use Speedtest CLI to Monitor Broadband speeds – Part 1

Powershell – Use Speedtest CLI to Monitor Broadband speeds – Part 1

After having some speed issues I wanted to create a script to document these into an easy to access table that I could see what was happening. So rather than reinventing the wheel, Ookla offer a Python application that will display your internet speeds from the commandline… if thats your wish; and in my case, it was!

My main wants in this were:

  • Create a PowerShell script to get the information I wanted
  • Output the results to a CSV
  • Use scheduled Tasks to run the script hourly
  • Upload the results to a local web server and display in a HTML table
Powershell – Exchange Environmental Check

Powershell – Exchange Environmental Check

I have adapted the “Modern Exchange Environment Check” from Satheshwaran Manoharan and for use on a Exchange Server 2016 environment.
Added to the already excelent script is the following

  • Section Headers
  • MailboxDB provisioning Status
  • Whitespace check
  • Exchange Log Dir Size
  • Exchange Server Drive Space
  • Mail Queue Checks
  • House Keeping of created files


I feel that this is now a more complete report of the Exchange Server environment and the servers it runs upon.
