Using PowerShell to get VM IP addresses

  • Artykuł

Here is a handy PowerShell snippet:

Get-VM | ?{$_.ReplicationMode -ne "Replica"} | Select -ExpandProperty NetworkAdapters | Select VMName, IPAddresses, Status

Which delivers an output like this:

As you can see, it lists the IP addresses of all the virtual machines running under Hyper-V.  A couple of notes to make about this:

  • I use Hyper-V Replica heavily.  So I have developed the habit of always filtering out Replicas - so I do not worry about them.
  • I look at the network adapter status, because (as you can see) it allows me to tell the difference between a VM without an IP address - and a VM that is not reporting whether it has an IP address or not.

Hopefully you will find this useful in your environments.

Cheers,
Ben

    Ben, I have been using Windows since Windows 3.11 (now I am using Windows 7) but still have no idea what is PowerShell and why should I prefer it to BAT-files (they look simpler to me). So can you recommend me one or two book about PowerShell. And also I want to know is it a replacement of BAT-files or just an addition? I mean how long BAT-files will be supported?

      If you installed intergration kit inside non Windows VM you can get ip address.

    I am using powershell version 2.0 on windows server 2008R2. I am trying to use the command Get-VM but it gives me error. My final conclusion is that 2.0 version does not support this command. Am I right? If so, then what is the solution? I want to know the IP addresses used by my virtual machines.

      I use myself this in combination with SCVMM 2016Import-Module virtualmachinemanagerGet-SCVMHost | get-vm | Select -ExpandProperty VirtualNetworkAdapters | Select Name,IPv4Addresses,IPv4Subnets You might need to add SVMM host name to be able to run it.
