Below is my script for UCS
Remove-Item F:\Logs\UCS\*
$server= Read-Host -Prompt 'Please enter UCS IP'
$Chasis= '(ChassisId 1)'
connect-UCS $server
Get-UcsTechSupport -PathPattern 'F:\Logs\UCS\${ucs}-techsupp-chassis.tar' -RemoveFromUcs -TimeoutSec 1200 -$Chasis -CimcId all
I am getting below error when I try to run it..
Get-UcsTechSupport : A positional parameter cannot be found that accepts argument '-ChassisId 1'.

Your problem is this:
-$Chasis
Which resolves to:
-(ChassisId 1)
Pay particular attention to the hyphen (-)
PS is seeing this as the name of a parameter.
I don't know the arguments for the CmdLet you're using, so this corrected code is just an example:
... -TimeoutSec 1200 -ParameterName $Chasis -CimcId all

I seem not to get the Includes parameter to work anymore. I've tried to uninstall the PnP module aswell but with no success. Does this work for you guys?
The PS script:
Connect-PnPOnline -Url https://{mydomain}.sharepoint.com -UseWebLogin
Get-PnPSubWebs -Recurse -Includes HasUniqueRoleAssignments
Error:

I used this script about a month ago and it worked perfectly. Any clue what could be the cause of this?
If i run this code it will run the file
{Write-host "Please Enter the email address of the user you want to check the permissions"
$user = Read-Host
Powershell.exe C:\Temp\Report\Reports.ps1}
But if i run it like this which is what i need to do
{ Write-host "Please Enter the email address of the user you want to check the permissions"
$user = Read-Host
Powershell.exe C:\Temp\Report\Reports.ps1 -processOneDrive $true -OneDriveEmail $user}
I get this error

What am i doing wrong and how can i get this to work? any help will be appreciated
I believe its asking you for a sting parameter in the error
parameter of type 'System.String' and try again.
Hope this works out>
{ [string]$user = Read-Host "Please Enter the email address of the user you want to check the permissions"
Powershell.exe C:\Temp\Report\Reports.ps1 -processOneDrive $true -OneDriveEmail $user}
Type String >
I have figured it out. It seems when running the powershell script within another script and to have the arguments in. when it comes to the -processOneDrive $true It tried to convert that to boolem which caused errors. i changed this to 1 which im sure means true so code looks like this
Powershell.exe "c:\Temp\Report\Reports.ps1" -processOneDrive 1 -OneDriveEmail $user
Now it runs smoothly. Thanks for everyone that tried to help me with this :)
I just need to call another script and pass the parameters to it.
I tried doing invoke-expression to access it, i tried using &, and nothing worked
I tried doing the following:
$hostfile = "C:\Users\username\Desktop\csvfile_test.csv"
$outFile = ".\testerFile.xlsx"
& '.\organizer.ps1' "-csvFile $hostfile -outputPath $outFile "
Invoke-Expression 'C:\Users\username\Desktop\organizer.ps1' "$hostfile $outFile"
I receive the following errors:.
with ampersand (&):

When you write this:
& '.\organizer.ps1' "-csvFile $hostfile -outputPath $outFile "
you are passing a single parameter to the script (one quoted string). That's not what you want.
This is what you need:
$hostfile = "C:\Users\username\Desktop\csvfile_test.csv"
$outFile = ".\testerFile.xlsx"
.\organizer.ps1 -csvFile $hostfile -outputPath $outFile
First, you don't need the & (invocation) operator because your command name (the organizer.ps1 script in the current location, in this example) doesn't contain spaces. (You can add it if you want, but it's unnecessary in this scenario.)
Second, the -csvFile and -outputPath parameters each require a string.
I am working on creating a script to copy specific information from an existing AD User into a new account. The script is giving me 3 errors, the third one i know is because the script fails before it gets to that section.

Full Script link
Here is the line the first error refers to:
$New_Path = (Get-ADUser ($UsernameCopy.Text)).DistinguishedName -replace '^.*?,\s*(?=ou=)', ''
I have a feeling the second error message is caused by the first error, and the third error message is because it doesn't complete the New-ADUser command.
I'm running PSVersion 5.1.150
Edit: Can someone assist me in figuring out what the error messages mean as well as how to fix it?
You're running into three different errors being thrown:
Get-ADUser : The operation returned because the timeout limit was exceeded.
This one is obvious. You have a timeout on the AD server and it was exceeded before it found a result. You can adjust the timeout or deal with no returns.
New-ADUser : Cannot validate argument on parameter 'Path'. The argument is null or empty. Provide an argument that is not null or empty, and then try the command again.
You provided a bad (empty) path argument.
Add-ADGroupMember : Cannot find an object with identity: 'cnelsontest1' under: 'DC=azcorrections,DC=local'.
The object cnelsontest1 doesn't exist in the DC=azcorrections,DC=local path.
I'm having issues feeding variables into the New-MsolUser cmdlet. I'm getting the following error.
New-MsolUser : A positional parameter cannot be found that accepts argument 'â?UserPrincipalName ausertest#test.ie â?UsageLocation'.
At C:\users\test\Documents\test.ps1:148 char:1

+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : PositionalParameterNotFound,Microsoft.Online.Administration.Automation.NewUser
The code I am using is:
$Source = "AnotherADUser"
$TargetFname = "New"
$TargetLname = "User"
$Target = "ausertest"
$TargetFullname = [string]::Concat($TargetFname ," ", $TargetLname)
$SourceEmail = (Get-ADUser $source -Property EmailAddress).EmailAddress
$SourceDomain = $SourceEmail.split("#")[1]
$TargetEmail = ([string]::Concat($Target , "#" , $SourceDomain))
New-MsolUser -DisplayName $TargetFullname –UserPrincipalName $TargetEmail –UsageLocation "IE" | Set-MsolUserLicense -AddLicenses "TESTINSTALL:EXCHANGESTANDARD"
This command works when I hardcode the details..
–UserPrincipalName and –UsageLocation use not the minus character but the
character with code 8211. Maybe it's fine but try to use the standard minus
instead, just to be sure.
