Hi Kevin,
thanks for the useful script, if i understand it correctly the script will extract list of servers which have shadowcopy enabled? however when i try to run it i get the following error message
GWMI: Initialization Failure
At line:1 Char:28
Will this check all the servers in the environment for Volume shadow copy?
I am getting the following error
GWMI : Initialization Failure
At Line:1 Char:28
I want to know which servers have VSS enabled on C drive which is the system drive
You have to run it as administrator. with out the administrator context, it will not initialize correctly. To make sure you have the class in WMI, run this command.
Get-WmiObject -List | Select-String "shadow"
