SW-PowerShell

• This is the main repository for all PowerShell scripts with any relation to SolarWinds.

How to download whole repository to your system?

• Just execute "GetLatestRepository.ps1" stored in root of this repository.

Action items

• Add function for detecting correct version of PowerShell (script execution will be blocked, if lover than 4.0).

• Start working on “GetComponentsVersion.ps1”, which will be in Tools container.

• ..Intent here is to have pluggable script, which will do its work based on present plugins.

• Ok, ultimate decision is that each plugin will represent each component and all these will be dynamicaly loaded

• ..-> based on these will be installed products determined plus their versions

• ..-> so, lot of changes has to be made...

• ..-> plus do template for plugin.

Long term ideas

• Create function, which will detect .NET version.
