Posted June 11, 20186 yr A bit of introduction: I'm a happy user of Pulseway Manager. I use Pulseway Manager Enterprise (but for this topic it doesn't really matter). I manage quite large deployment with 250 Pulseway monitored machines. Someone else installed (via GPO) and did some basic setup. After running basic setup for a while, someone else changed some settings and tweaked it a bit. Finally ... again someone said lets change things around... This got me to this point... I have to change: CPU For all servers CPU > 90% for 30minutes > CRITICAL RAM RAM on 1 HOST – 5% for 30 min > CRITICAL Disable Low RAM on VM's Disable Low RAM in Azure Enable storage for any drives the servers have 20GB free > ELEVATED 10GB free > CRITICAL While I could just assign some poor guy to go thru 60+ servers and change things, make sure those are correct I decided it's time to introduce PowerShell for those Active Directory admins out there... while I know there is Pulseway GPO but it's kind of limited, and doesn't give much flexibility (for example drive monitoring). It also overwrites settings set locally without Pulseway actually showing them on Client.  After playing a bit... I managed to write: Clear-Host Import-Module PSPulsewayManager -Force  ### Tests - Account Page ### Get-PulsewayMaintenanceMode Set-PulsewayMaintenanceMode -Toggle $false -Verbose Get-PulsewayGroupName Set-PulsewayGroupName -GroupName 'EVOTEC' -Verbose Get-PulsewayComputerName Set-PulsewayComputerName -NewComputerName 'EVO1' -Verbose  ### Set settings remotly...  $Computer = 'AD1' Get-PulsewayMaintenanceMode -Computer $Computer Set-PulsewayMaintenanceMode -Computer $Computer -Toggle $false -Verbose Get-PulsewayGroupName -Computer $Computer Set-PulsewayGroupName -Computer $Computer -GroupName 'EVOTEC' -Verbose Get-PulsewayComputerName -Computer $Computer Set-PulsewayComputerName -Computer $Computer -NewComputerName 'AD1' -Verbose And another tab... Clear-Host Import-Module PSPulsewayManager -Force Import-Module PSWriteColor  ### Tests - Notifications Performance Page ###  Write-Color ' Get ', 'CPU usage below', ' settings' -Color Yellow, Green, Yellow Get-PulsewayCPUBelow Write-Color ' Get ', 'CPU usage above', ' settings' -Color Yellow, Green, Yellow Get-PulsewayCPUAbove Write-Color ' Get ', 'Memory', ' settings' -Color Yellow, Green, Yellow Get-PulsewayMemoryLow Write-Color ' Get ', 'Port Closed', ' settings' -Color Yellow, Green, Yellow Get-PulsewayMonitoredPortClosed  Set-PulsewayCPUAbove -CPUUsagePercentage 25 -CPUUsageTimeInterval 20 -PrioritySendNotificationOnCPUUsage Elevated -SendNotificationOnCPUUsage Enabled -Verbose Set-PulsewayCPUBelow -BelowCPUUsagePercentage 2 -BelowCPUUsageTimeInterval 20 -PrioritySendNotificationOnBelowCPUUsage Elevated -SendNotificationOnBelowCPUUsage Disabled -Verbose Set-PulsewayMemoryLow -LowMemoryPercentage 10 -LowMemoryTimeInterval 15 -PrioritySendNotificationOnLowMemory Critical -SendNotificationOnLowMemory Enabled -Verbose Set-PulsewayMonitoredPortClosed -PortInterval 2 -PrioritySendNotificationOnPortNotAccessible Critical -SendNotificationOnPortNotAccessible Enabled -Verbose And another tab Clear-Host Import-Module PSPulsewayManager -Force Import-Module PSWriteColor  $Computer = 'AD1'  Write-Color 'Get ', 'Low Disk Space' -Color White, Yellow $Drives = Get-PulsewayLocalDiskSpace -Computer $Computer $Drives Write-Color 'List ', ' drives separatly' -Color White, Yellow -LinesAfter 1 $Drives.MonitoredDrives  ## Find all drives for computer/server $FindDrives = Get-Drive -Computer $Computer $FindDrives $ListDrives = @() # Set the settings for all drives for particular computer/server (Elevated) $DrivesElevated = Set-DriveSettings -Drive $FindDrives -Percentage 10 -Priority Elevated -SizeMB 20000 -UsePercentage No # Repeat process for same drives but make it critical $DrivesCritical = Set-DriveSettings -Drive $FindDrives -Percentage 10 -Priority Critical -SizeMB 10000 -UsePercentage No  $ListDrives += $DrivesElevated $ListDrives += $DrivesCritical  Set-PulsewayLocalDiskSpace -Computer $Computer -Drives $ListDrives -SendNotificationOnLowHDDSpace Enabled -Verbose Since it covers my needs for now I was wondering if there is any interest in this? I don't want to spend time on it if there's no one else needing this  I've published it on github https://github.com/EvotecIT/PSPulsewayManager But its also published in PowerShellGallery which allows you to install it .... Install-Module PSPulsewayManager Import-Module PSPulsewayManager Use the commands.. Keep in mind I've not spent a ton of time on it. There are bugs, some things are not checked.. but it does work ;-) Â
