I want to combine two functions, and have the variables use ".txt" files with my new and old datastores listed.
I've edited it a bit, combining the two functions, and creating variables for new and old lists, but I'm not sure on the context to provide to the variables for the text files. Any PowerShell / PowerCli guru's?
# A PowerShell function to add new, then remove old datastores from an automatic pool.
# UpdateDatastoresForAutomaticPool
# Parameters
# $Pool Pool ID of pool to be updated. (AutomaticPools.txt)
# $OldDatastore Full path to OldDatastore.txt to be removed.
# $NewDatastore Full path to NewDatastore.txt to be added.
function RemoveDatastoreFromAutomaticPool
{ param ($Pool, $OldDatastore) $PoolSettings = (Get-Pool -pool_id $Pool) $currentdatastores = $PoolSettings.datastorePaths $datastores = "" foreach ($path in $currentdatastores.split(";")){ if(-not ($path -eq $OldDatastore)){ $datastores = $datastores + "$path;" } } Update-AutomaticPool -pool_id $Pool -datastorePaths $datastores
}
function AddDatastoreToAutomaticPool
{ param ($Pool, $NewDatastore) $PoolSettings = (Get-Pool -pool_id $Pool) $datastores = $PoolSettings.datastorePaths + ";$NewDatastore" Update-AutomaticPool -pool_id $Pool -datastorePaths $datastores
}
Thanks,
