exchange 2013 powershell script

[sreinhardt]

OK, by default the add-pssnapin Microsoft.Exchange.Management.PowerShell should link to the highest version installed, since that seems to be having troubles, let's try importing the 2013 version specifically.

add-pssnapin Microsoft.Exchange.Management.PowerShell.E2013

Also I just wanted to confirm, this is a 64 bit OS and using 64 bit powershell application? The exchange 2013 snapin can be installed on but not loaded on x86 systems, hence why I asked.

Update:

I run powershell ise "as administrator"
When prompted for 'identity' I entered the servername
It exits

Code: Select all

OK:  - 0 checks are OK

Does that mean everything is fubar?

Looks like it *might* not be able to read any output, so it defaults to 0. It's been a while since this thread was last active, so apologies if my thoughts are not fresh in my head.

yeah, I know. I had a bunch of other things and a holiday in the meantime..
Are there any plans for an official plugin for exchange2013?

I would think not. We actively maintain the standard Nagios plugins but in terms of creating new ones that would need to be discussed.

I managed to get in toucht with the author of the script.
He provided me with an updated version.

Back to thinkering and testing.
I got it running on the server. That's positive.

points to figure out:
Have NagiosXi run powershell as admin
and edit the command to pass the args
How to auto-run the add-snapin comandlet (servers tend to reboot every now and then)
bug my admins on what they really need to see....
