Examples

Get-PIBufferVersion

Gets the version of the PI Buffer Subsystem running on the local machine.

Examples

Invoke-Command -ComputerName PISRV1 -ScriptBlock { Get-PIBufferVersion }

Get the PI Buffer Subsystem version running on the PISRV1 machine. Note the use of Invoke-Command. Failure of this example to execute properly is likely not an issue with Get-PIBufferVersion, but with the network or PS connection to the remote computer. Note that the OSIsoft.PowerShell module must be installed on the remote computer as well for this to work.

Examples

Invoke-Command -ComputerName PISRV1,PIAF1,PIINT1,PIINT2 -ScriptBlock { Get-PIBufferVersion }

Get the PI Buffer Subsystem version running on the PISRV1, PIAF1, PIINT1, and PIINT2 machines. Note the use of Invoke-Command. Failure of this example to execute properly is likely not an issue with Get-PIBufferVersion, but with the network or PS connection to the remote computer. Note that the OSIsoft.PowerShell module must be installed on the remote computer as well for this to work.
