No not that I know of. I don’t think any of the developers use MSX, sorry

Hey Chrissy,

Is there a dbaTools command that you are familiar with that will add new target to the SQL Server Agent (MSX)? I tried looking for their docs and couldn’t find one.

Hi,
I’d like to use Policy Based Management for a bunch of SQL Server instances.
Options:
1- Use CMS to create Conditions & Scheduled Policy.
Export/Import to all others instances.
Collect policy results in CMS.
Create Reports & Alerts using CMS collected data.
2- Enterprise Policy Management Framework open project.
3- Anything else?

Thanks.
Kind regards,
Fabian

I just tested and exclude group isn’t working for me.

Get-DbaRegisteredServer -SqlInstance localhost -group QA -ExcludeGroup QA\QA_DW
still shows entries that list ‘QA\QA_DW’ for group.

Hi Chrissy,

How can I omit a subgroup? Neither -ExcludeGroup ‘Group\Subgroup’ nor -ExcludeGroup ‘SubGroup’ works.

When i am using the file name like -path ‘c:\temp\export.xml’ it creates a folder export.xml and puts the autogenerated file sql2008-xxxxxx.xml to it.
Is it possible to give name what i wanted instead of autogenerated?

Thanks for your comment, Paul! I need to update this post. They are all there, but now have support for all Registered Server Types so they are have been renamed to RegServer in dbatools 1.0. Just remove the Cms part of the command. I’lll also update the post now.
