3 Using Windows PowerShell with HP Device Monitor
Many of the DMC tasks can also be performed using Windows PowerShell, the Microsoft command
console, and scripting language. PowerShell enables you to create scripts that can automate many
of the device monitor tasks.
When the DMS is installed, the PowerShell cmdlets in this chapter are available to add and remove
managed devices. If the modules are not available, the following command can be used to load
the correct PowerShell snap-in: Add-PSSnapin HP.Servers.DeviceMonitorCmdLets
The information in this chapter assumes you are familiar with Windows PowerShell. For more
