Role from MSCluster_Network for cluster communications method

(imported topic written by SystemAdmin)

Im trying to get the Cluster network communication type from WMI,

Q: (substrings after “=” of (selects “Role from MSCluster_Network” of wmi “root\mscluster” as string))

A: 1

A: 3

I then wanted to translate it to a human readable format, but im getting stuck

Q: (preceding text of first “;” of following text of substrings ((substrings after “=” of (selects “Role from MSCluster_Network” of wmi “root\mscluster” as string)) & “,” ) of (“0,None;1,Cluster;2,Client;3,Both;”))

E: A singular expression is required.

and then replace the line below to reflect the name, Address, Role

Q: ((string value of property “Name” of it, string value of property “Address” of it, string value of property “Role” of it ) of select objects “Name, Address, Role from MSCluster_Network” of wmi “root\MSCluster”)

A: private, 10.10.10.0, 1

A: public, 172.16.4.121, 3

“0,None;1,Cluster;2,Client;3,Both;”

Output would look like this

A: private, 10.10.10.0, Cluster

A: public, 172.16.4.121, Both

Here is one way to do it:

(items 0 of it, items 1 of it, (if (it = 0) then “None” else (if (it = 1) then “Cluster” else (if (it =2) then “Client” else “Both”))) of items 2 of it) of ((string value of property “Name” of it, string value of property “Address” of it, string value of property “Role” of it ) of select objects “Name, Address, Role from MSCluster_Network” of wmi “root\MSCluster”)

I haven’t tested that specific combination, but I do know that this test version works:

(items 0 of it, items 1 of it, (if (it = 0) then “None” else (if (it = 1) then “Cluster” else (if (it =2) then “Client” else “Both”))) of items 2 of it) of (“private”, “10.10.10.0”, 1; “public”, “172.16.4.121”, 3)

Thanks Noah,

I have modified it slightly

concatenation "; " of ((string value of property “Name” of it, string value of property “Address” of it ,((if (it=“0”) then “None” else if (it=“1”) then “Cluster” else if (it=“2”) then “Client” else if (it=“3”) then “Both” else “Unknown Role”) of (string value of property “Role” of it))) of select objects “Name, Address, Role from MSCluster_Network” of wmi “root\MSCluster” as string)

I have attached a simple Cluster Analysis if any one is interested

I am very interested in your cluster analysis, but the attachment doesn’t work for me. Can you please re-attach, or send it directly to me?

Thanks!

Try this one…

otherwise here’s all the pieces

Thanks, Mark, I will give that a go. I’ve been wanting to go down this road for awhile now to replace a different script that is querying clusters directly. I appreciate the quick reply!

As you can see i get most of the data is from the same general location in WMI, and there’s lots more information available, if you update this Analysis please repost it back to the forum…

thanks
