winrm | line tool and library for Windows remote command execution | Command Line Interface library

I run this command to find execution policy of each computer. I'm looking for output of computer name and their respective execution policy.

I'm trying to check some Windows Services in an Azure VM using an Automation Account with managed identity using a Powershell script.

Basically I'm trying to use the New-PSsession -computerName VM1 command

I'm trying to automate the upgrading of Spotfire BI system on our Windows servers.

The instructions show a command that can be used to silently install which states the location of the executable file followed by all the required options/parameters as shown with this example:

I’m new to using modules in Terraform and I’m getting an error from my main.tf in my root module, saying “an argument vpc_id is not expected here” and this error is occurring for my “sg” module block at the bottom.

Here is my main.tf in my root module

I have a simple playbook referencing an inventory hosts.yml file. I want to be able to query a group, and retrieve the IP address for hosts in that group.

Simple hosts.yml

I'm aware that there already exists several posts similar to this one - I've went through them and adapted my Terraform configuration file, but it makes no difference.

Therefore, I'd like to publish my configuration file and my use case: I'd like to provision a (Windows) Virtual Machine on AWS, using Terraform. It works without the File Provisioning part - including them, the provisioning results in a timeout.

This includes adaptations from previous posts:

• SSH connection restriction SSH isnt working in Windows with Terraform provisioner connection type
• Usage of a Security group Terraform File provisioner can't connect ec2 over ssh. timeout - last error: dial tcp 92.242.xxx.xx:22: i/o timeout

I also get a timeout when using "winrm" instead of "ssh".

I'd be happy if you could provide any hint for following config file:

My goal is to fill the variable $output with the, you guessed it, output of the PSService.exe. Unfortunately this does not work. At all. As you can see in the code, I'm looking for a specific line, which is needed to tell if the command was a success or not.

I am trying to create an Azure VM image using packer. My packer template looks like this

I'm having a problem with one of my Ansible tasks constantly failing. However, the problem is not that the task is failing (I'm expecting it to fail) but what I want to do is show it as successful even though it failed.

The reason why I want to do this is because the task is running a Powershell script on a Windows server using WinRM and the Powershell script is enabling certificate authentication for WinRM. This causes the WinRM connection to the server to be aborted when the WinRM service is reset on the Windows server. Thus, the task will fail when these changes to WinRM is applied.

The fact that the task fails is fine since the next task in the playbook is checking if the changes for WinRM was applied successfully. Thus, the task is run with the parameter "ignore_errors: yes". However, I would like to show the task as successful, even though it fails. I have tried to set the parameter "failed_when: false" (task should always be successful) and "no_log: true", but this does not seem to have had any affect on the task and it still gives the following output:
