SCRIPT – Computer Inventory

Posted on by

The Computer Inventory Script enumerates Hardware, OS, System, Processor, Memory, Disk, and Network information and neatly organizes it in an Excel file. I’ve provided Version 2 of the script that allows you to choose a number of computer resources; all computers in the domain, all servers in the domain, computers from a list maintained in a text file, and the ability manually pick a computer. Version 2 of the PowerShell script also allows you to send credential information should you wish to logon the remote computer with an alternative user account. This is helpful for DMZ servers as well as stand alone servers that are not members of your domain.

Posted on by

To get a list of quota’s in a text file: dirquota q l > all_quotas.txt

To backup the complete quota database first stop the FSRM services, copy the SRM directory and restart the FSRM services. To be able to copy the SRM directory you need rights on the System Volume Information directory.

 

1. Stop the FSRM services

net stop srmSvc
net stop srmReports
net stop quota
net stop Datascrn

2. Copy SRM for the disk you want to a backup folder, or restore them from a backup folder

3. Start the FSRM services

net start Datascrn
net start quota
net start srmReports
net start srmSvc
