Import User Roles (powershell)

  • Article

PowerShell script to import User Roles.  Copy and save code to file with .ps1 extension.  Execute PS script from within SCOM Command Shell or PowerShell.  User input prompts will not work if copying and pasting code directly into shell.

This script works in conjunction with the ExportUserRoles script.  Otherwise, the input file must be in the following format:

Profile: <monitoringProfile>
Name: <userRoleName>
DisplayName: <userRoleDisplayName>
Description: <userRoleDescriptioin>
Users: <account1 account2 account3>

There is no validation of accounts worked into this script.  If an account cannot be queried in AD, the script will throw errors but continue to process.  Use netbios name for accounts/groups (domain\account).

# Use this script to import User Roles.
# This script requires the User Roles to have
# already been exported using the ExportUserRoles
# script, or a text file in the same format as the
# output of the ExportUserRoles script.
