PowerShell to crete HTML report
Posted on 2012-12-23
I am using the attached PowerShell scripts (XeAapp_Check.ps1, Ctx_functions.ps1) to export the XenApp 4.5 Zone details to HTML file as a report. On executing the script for the first time I am getting the desired result but unfortunately everytime I execute the script, the zone details gets appended to that report.
Here is my server details:
Farm Name: MyFarm
Server Name zone Name
========== ==========
XEN-1 192.168.1.0
XEN-2 TEST ZONE
Please assist me to get the correct result so that I can get the desired output by correctly modifying that script.

the problem is that its appended to the html result instead of generating fresh one?
can u describe expected result?
can u describe expected result?
Please find the attached expected result.
XenApp-Check--Farm-Name--MyFarm-.mht
XenApp-Check--Farm-Name--MyFarm-.mht
in XenApp-Check.txt script just before you call out-file to save as .htm (scroll all the way down the script), you wanna delete them if already exists:
if(Test-Path $FileXenApp_Check){
remove-item $FileXenApp_Check
}
if(Test-Path $FileXenApp_CheckBackup){
remove-item $FileXenApp_CheckBackup
}
$XenAppReport | out-file -encoding ASCII -filepath $FileXenApp_Check
$XenAppReport | out-file -encoding ASCII -filepath $FileXenApp_CheckBackup
echo "DONE"
i saw that you hard coded:
$Check_OutputEnteteZone = "TRUE"
when u generate the html, you iterate the zones:
If ($Check_OutputEnteteZone -eq "TRUE")
{
Foreach ($Zones in $Zones) {
so the if statement is redundant (cause its always true).
$Check_OutputEnteteZone = "TRUE"

If ($Check_OutputEnteteZone -eq "TRUE")

I've added the code you provided but still having the same result (please see the attached file). The report gets deleted but when recreated, the restult gets appended in the report.
I am not that much expert on PowerShell. Can you please guide me what should I do in case if I set $Check_OutputEnteteZone = "TRUE".
It would be very helpful of me if you could provide me the rectified code.

Event I've deleted the "If ($Check_OutputEnteteZone -eq "TRUE")" condition and then executed the script, but getting same result.
#Farm Name
$XenAppReport = Get-CustomHTML "Farm Name : $Farm"
$XenAppReport += Get-CustomHeaderClose
#Write-CustomOut "..Adding Zones Details Info to the report"
Foreach ($Zones in $Zones) {
$OutputEnteteZone2 += @($Zones | Select @{N="Zone Name";E={if($Zones.ZoneName -eq $Null){"Error"}else{$Zones.ZoneName}}}, @{N="Zone Data Collector";E={if($Zones.DataCollector -eq $Null){"Error"}else{$Zones.DataCollector}}}) }
$XenAppReport += Get-CustomHeader ("Zone(s) Details : "+($Zones_Count))
$XenAppReport += Get-HTMLTable $OutputEnteteZone2
$XenAppReport += Get-CustomHeaderClose
$Date = Get-Date -Format "yyyyMMddHH"
$FileXenApp_Check = $Path + $FileName + ".htm"
$FileXenApp_CheckBackup = $PathBackup + $FileName + "_" + $date + ".htm"
if(Test-Path $FileXenApp_Check){
remove-item $FileXenApp_Check
}
if(Test-Path $FileXenApp_CheckBackup){
remove-item $FileXenApp_CheckBackup
}
$XenAppReport | out-file -encoding ASCII -filepath $FileXenApp_Check
$XenAppReport | out-file -encoding ASCII -filepath $FileXenApp_CheckBackup
echo "DONE"
What I have seen that, if I change the following variable name everytime then, I am getting the desired result.
$OutputEnteteZone
Also, I there is any way to delete the value of that variable then I think the result will come but I don't have any clue about how to do this.

change this:
to this:
--> remove if stetment and foreach stetment.
the if is redundant and the foreach already takes place when you call:
$OutputEnteteZone1 += @($Zones | ....
If ($Check_OutputEnteteZone -eq "TRUE")
{
Foreach ($Zones in $Zones) {
$OutputEnteteZone1 += @($Zones | Select @{N="Zone Name";E={if($Zones.ZoneName -eq $Null){"Error"}else{$Zones.ZoneName}}}, @{N="Zone Data Collector";E={if($Zones.DataCollector -eq $Null){"Error"}else{$Zones.DataCollector}}}) }
$XenAppReport += Get-CustomHeader ("Zone(s) Details : "+($Zones_Count))
$XenAppReport += Get-HTMLTable $OutputEnteteZone1
$XenAppReport += Get-CustomHeaderClose
}
to this:
$OutputEnteteZone1 += @($Zones | Select @{N="Zone Name";E={if($Zones.ZoneName -eq $Null){"Error"}else{$Zones.ZoneName}}}, @{N="Zone Data Collector";E={if($Zones.DataCollector -eq $Null){"Error"}else{$Zones.DataCollector}}})
$XenAppReport += Get-CustomHeader ("Zone(s) Details : "+($Zones_Count))
$XenAppReport += Get-HTMLTable $OutputEnteteZone1
$XenAppReport += Get-CustomHeaderClose
--> remove if stetment and foreach stetment.
the if is redundant and the foreach already takes place when you call:
$OutputEnteteZone1 += @($Zones | ....
Please find below the code as you instructed and the attached result. The result is getting appended everytime and the ouput is producing an error as $Zones.ZoneName value is producing NULL value.
$XenAppReport = Get-CustomHTML "Farm Name : $Farm"
$XenAppReport += Get-CustomHeaderClose
$OutputEnteteZone1 += @($Zones | Select @{N="Zone Name";E={if($Zones.ZoneName -eq $Null){"Error"}else{$Zones.ZoneName}}}, @{N="Zone Data Collector";E={if($Zones.DataCollector -eq $Null){"Error"}else{$Zones.DataCollector}}})
$XenAppReport += Get-CustomHeader ("Zone(s) Details : "+($Zones_Count))
$XenAppReport += Get-HTMLTable $OutputEnteteZone1
$XenAppReport += Get-CustomHeaderClose
$Date = Get-Date -Format "yyyyMMddHH"
$FileXenApp_Check = $Path + $FileName + ".htm"
$FileXenApp_CheckBackup = $PathBackup + $FileName + "_" + $date + ".htm"
if(Test-Path $FileXenApp_Check){
remove-item $FileXenApp_Check
}
if(Test-Path $FileXenApp_CheckBackup){
remove-item $FileXenApp_CheckBackup
}
$XenAppReport | out-file -encoding ASCII -filepath $FileXenApp_Check
$XenAppReport | out-file -encoding ASCII -filepath $FileXenApp_CheckBackup
echo "DONE"
the problem is not appending the file but the $zones creation.
there's a function called GET-XAZone i assume which returns aggregated $Zones.
i couldn't;t find source of this function in the files you've attached.
please check $Zones.Count when code is back from GET-XAZone.
i guess that from second run you get aggregated result.
but again do not have the source of GET-XAZone.

Did you try setting $OutputEnteteZone1 to $null
$OutputEnteteZone1 = $null
If ($Check_OutputEnteteZone -eq "TRUE")
{
Foreach ($Zones in $Zones) {
$OutputEnteteZone1 += @($Zones | Select @{N="Zone Name";E={if($Zones.ZoneName -eq $Null){"Error"}else{$Zones.ZoneName}}}, @{N="Zone Data Collector";E={if($Zones.DataCollector -eq $Null){"Error"}else{$Zones.DataCollector}}}) }
$XenAppReport += Get-CustomHeader ("Zone(s) Details : "+($Zones_Count))
$XenAppReport += Get-HTMLTable $OutputEnteteZone1
$XenAppReport += Get-CustomHeaderClose
}
