Unless you're already familiar with scripting Outlook via COM, you may be
looking at a steep learning curve either way.
I'm an Exchange admin who never did grok VB and consequently never did any
COM automation of Outlook, so my preference would be the EWS solution. It
only requrires the .dll and Powershell, so it's very portable. You don't

Agreed.

Thanks for that list. Sometimes the titles give a hint as to what version of
PowerShell they follow.
Do you have a PowerShell book you have found especially valuable?
I would think that everyone finds Bruce Payette's "PowerShell in Action" a
valuable resource.

Sorry for the double reply. I couldn't get anything to update until just a
few minutes ago, and thought I'd closed the window without hitting Post on
the first one.

Re: Create random file

2010-01-05T21:38:19Z

Try this function.

It creates a new file or overwrites an existing file, and writes up to 5120 MB of random chars -your set of chars- in one huge string through a stream writer.

If you want to write many lines instead of one huge line, use IO.StreamRiter's WriteLine Method instead, but be aware that it'll affect the function's perfomance. Showing the progress will also affect performance.

There are a few different ways to do this that I am aware of:
1) Using Native ADSI/.NET methods. The most complex, you can find
examples on the technet script center like this one:

2) Using Quest's AD Plugin

This will work

Re: Powershell and Microsoft Clustering.

2010-01-05T19:26:45Z

In Windows Server 2008 R2 the clustering can be managed entirely from
PowerShell. See
[link] for more on
Failover Clustering, and
[link] for details
on NLB clustering.
In both cases, once the Role is loaded, additional modules are available.

Powershell and Microsoft Clustering.

Are there any cmdlets that allow me to gather info about clusters? Is there
a snap-in or is it available in powershell 2?
Thanks
