According to Technet it is not required
(http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh849719.aspx) as the default would
be 'localhost' which is the same as 127.0.0.1.
So you are correct it is not required. However when I take away '-computername
127.0.0.1' I get a return of:
Array
(
[0] => Invoke-Command : Parameter set cannot be resolved using the
specified named
[1] => parameters.
[2] => At line:1 char:172
[3] => + $cred = New-Object System.Management.Automation.PSCredential
-ArgumentList

[5] => +

[9] => + FullyQualifiedErrorId :

[11] =>
)
End Of Scene
For whatever reason, the powershell command does not want to execute properly
without that variable being defined explicitly.
(Not sure if that is what you are asking exactly but I think that was answering
the question, if not let me know and I'll try to answer the best I can)
Thanks in advance!

How have you determined that invoke-command requires -computername?

Thank you for your response Serge!
The computer name is for the invoke-command, ComputerName has to be
specified to tell the computer where the command is to be routed. Since I want
this to run locally over PHP I figured that it would be a good way to avoid
running a script as I have read online that when it can be avoided it's a good
practice (I also couldn't get this to work properly... :) But that is a side
note). The piece that outputs the extra RunSpaceID and the PSComputerName is
the $_.Status portion of everything.
If someone knows how to cut it out that would be fine but really I just need to
pull the Target Name and the Value from result. For the attached example it
would be $IQNTarget = iqn.2013-04.com.widget:Target1 and $Value = NotConnected
(Which there are two options for this which is Connected or NotConnected).
To use Select Object here would I do Select-Object $Value?

Hi,
Although this is more powershell related than PHP...
When Powershell returns an object, you can pipe the output through
Select-Object to get only certain object properties.
To better answer your question:
First, why do you specify ComputerName as 127.0.0.1 if the credential is
already specified?
Also, perhaps it is easier to create a .ps1 file that you run, especially for
readability.

Good morning everyone,
First time posting in here, although I've been listening in for a few weeks
now.
So this one has got me stumped, I am fairly new to PHP but I cannot seem to
Google through this one.
I cannot figure out how to 'exclude' PSComputerName and RunspaceId, which is
ultimately what I'm struggling with. Please see below for script snips and
explanations.
Also if there are any best practices you would recommend I'm open to it being
that I am fairly new and self-taught to PHP scripting.
I have a bit of code I've put together (as ugly as it is) as follows in line:
<?php
###############
## Variables ##
###############
$TargetName = "Target1";
$login = "\$cred = New-Object System.Management.Automation.PSCredential
-ArgumentList
@('[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>',(ConvertTo-SecureString
-String 'MyPassword' -AsPlainText -Force))";
$command = "Invoke-Command -computername 127.0.0.1 -credential \$cred
-scriptblock {& Get-IscsiServerTarget -TargetName " . $TargetName . " | % {
\$_.TargetIqn, \$_.Status}} -SessionOption (New-PSSessionOption -SkipCACheck
-SkipCNCheck -SkipRevocationCheck)";
$psCMD = "powershell -ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted -command \"$login;
$command\" <NUL";
########################################
## Variable Checking (For Debug Mode) ##
########################################
#echo "\$psCMD = $psCMD";
################
## Run Script ##
################
exec($psCMD,$out);
############
## Output ##
############
echo ('<pre>');
print_r($out);
echo ('</pre>');
###################
## End Of Script ##
###################
echo "End Of Scene";
?>
The issue I have is that it feeds back:
Array
(
[0] => iqn.2013-04.com.widget:Target1
[1] =>
[2] => PSComputerName RunspaceId Value
[3] => -------------- ---------- -----
[4] => 127.0.0.1 52fb8b1b-8d8b-4eec-9419... NotConnected
[5] =>
[6] =>
)
End Of Scene
What I should see so I can then turn it into variables is what I run when I run
the command straight through the local Powershell command prompt which would
return:
PS C:\Users\administrator.WIDGET.000> Get-IscsiServerTarget | % { $_.TargetIqn,
$_.Status}
iqn.2013-04.com.widget:Target1
NotConnected
iqn.2013-04.com.widget:Target2
NotConnected
iqn.2013-04.com.widget:Target3
NotConnected
iqn.2013-04.com.widget:Target4
Connected
iqn.2013-04.com.widget:Target5
NotConnected
iqn.2013-04.com.widget:Target6
NotConnected
I cannot figure out how to 'exclude' PSComputerName and RunspaceId
Sorry in advance for the wordy explanation.
Cheers!
Alan
