One more maintenance mode script

  • Artikel

Attached is a script that takes a group and puts all the computers in the group (as well as the health service and the healthservice watcher) into maintenance mode.

Here is how you can run the script from the command line to start or stop maintenance mode (without launching powershell.exe)

One of the uses of this script is when you deploy hotfixes to a large number of servers. You can also very easily use Task Scheduler to run this script on a regular basis for your maintenance windows.

Starting MM - powershell "c:\GroupMM.ps1" -groupName:'All Computers' -hours:10 -rmsServerName:'localhost' -startMM:$true

Ending MM - powershell "c:\GroupMM.ps1" -groupName:'All Computers' -hours:10 -rmsServerName:'localhost' -startMM:$false

    Excellent script Boris - just a quick question, does the group need to be based on the Windows Server object, or can it be any subset? For example, a dynamic list based on Logical disks?

    I dont think you can exclude a group from another group's definition. What you can do is create another class and create a discovery for this class (instances of this class would be the onces that need to go in MM at the same time). Then include only this class in the group.

    "Then include only this class in the group."Ultimately, this would fail me as inevitably server instances will be a part of more than one class that I define for maintenanec mode.
