In this jam-packed session led by PowerShell MVP Jeff Hicks you'll learn to use key PowerShell cmdlets to get the information you need.

Face it, a major part of an IT Pro's ongoing job is to document and report. Your manager wants a monthly report showing disk utilization on a hundred different servers. Your team needs a weekly CPU utilization report for every mission-critical server. You need daily reports on every recent event log error.

PowerShell makes all of this easy. In this jam-packed session, led by PowerShell MVP Jeff Hicks, you'll learn to use key PowerShell cmdlets to get the information you need. Then, you'll learn a variety of techniques for building reports – from simple text files, to fancy HTML documents, to fully formatted Microsoft Word documents. This is not a hands-on session, but you are welcome to follow along. All of Jeff's demo scripts and samples will be shared with the group.

You will learn:
  • How to prepare formatted text files
  • How to create styled HTML reports that can be used on an intranet server or emailed
  • How to create formatted server documentation using Microsoft Word
