Enabling a cluster

Once a cluster is enabled, the nodes assigned to the cluster start processing jobs. As with disabling the cluster, enabling the cluster will enable all the nodes associated with it.

This example enables the cluster named First Cluster.

This example first stores cluster information in the $cluster variable, and then uses it as input to the Enable-ERCluster cmdlet. Note that the cluster name does not need to be parsed out and passed to the Enable-ERCluster cmdlet.

This example uses Get-ERCluster to retrieve information for the cluster named First Cluster and pipes it to the Enable-ERCluster cmdlet.

Using cmdlets to manage discoveries

An important aspect of Enterprise Reporter, discoveries return information about the systems in your environment. Discoveries gather data about Active Directory, computers, SQL Server, and NTFS permissions for files and folders. When using Enterprise Reporter cmdlets, discoveries are referred to as jobs. The examples in this section demonstrate how to create and run jobs using cmdlets.

This section contains the following examples:

Getting job information

You probably have configured and run discoveries in the Enterprise Reporter Configuration Manager. These job definitions are useful in understanding how the cmdlets work and provide good examples for you to follow when creating new jobs using cmdlets. The Get-ERJobDefinition cmdlet returns information on the jobs.

In this example, information about a job identified with the name of Active Directory is returned.

Output

In this example, information about all the jobs (the * wildcard is used in -JobDefinitionName) located on the cluster named Second Cluster is returned.

Output

As you can see in these examples, there is a lot of information contained in the job definition. The largest and seemingly most complicated part is the configuration, which contains all of the information about the jobs that you created using the Discovery Wizard. For more information about the configuration, see Creating a job.

Creating a job

Using cmdlets to create a new job requires planning as there is a lot information contained in a job definition. You would use cmdlets to automate a process, such as cloning a current job or creating a new job in an environment with limited resources.

[-Configuration] is the XML representation of the job or discovery configuration. See any of the job examples in the Getting job information section, which discussed the Get-ERJobDefinition cmdlet. This is the best way to get a configuration to use in creating a job manually.

As you can see in this example, each section of the XML file has an opening and a closing statement. When you are working with a copy of the configuration from the Get-ERJobDefinition cmdlet, pay attention to spaces, text, slashes, and other characters, as missing or extra characters will cause an issue with the job.

In this example, the contents of the XML configuration file is used with the New-ERJobDefinition cmdlet. The values for the -Configuration parameter are enclosed in a single quote mark (').

The parameters in this example are formatted to make it easier for you to read. When running the cmdlet, the parameters cannot contain any carriage returns in the command line. If you want to use this example, you must first paste it into NotePad and remove the carriage returns.

In this example the configuration is in an XML file, which allows changes to be made to the configuration when using the cmdlets. The XML files are just simple files that can be edited using Notepad and do not require any special formatting. The configuration of any current job is in the XML format and can be used as a template.

In this example, you want to clone a current job. The important item to note is that the -Name parameter needs to be changed to a unique value. The first cmdlet Get-ERJobDefinition gets the data on the job you wish to clone. In the New-ERJobDefinition cmdlet you use the data in the configuration of the cloned job by using $JobDefinition.Configuration to supply the needed configuration for the new job.
