Hi,

Im trying to grab some information from the citrix license server on our site, I tried using WMI but there is a known problem with the WMI information for this so that is a no go.

 

I then came up with the idea of grabbing the info from the webpage, I can get the info but i need to get a specific area, please can you help....

an extract of what i get is in the attached file.

What I need is the 5,000 number in this case (which is a number that can change) and the 4,738 which again is a number that will change.

 

Any ideas how I can get this info ?

 

Thanks

What exactly is the "known" problem with WMI?

Im trying to get the licence numbers, funny enough using your script !

But it doesnt list them all, I googled it and apparently this is a known issue and there is a 'private fix' which we are looking to get hold of.

In the meantime I thought I would brush up on my PS skills and try and get the info straight from the webpage.

 

I think I have just worked it out, as the line number stays the same i can do the following..

 

@(gc e:\lictest.txt)[277]

 

Then I can tidy up the results, is this the best way ?

I would guess a RegEx would be the next best thing as using line numbers could be very problematic.

Something like:
"(?\\d*\W\d*<\/td\>)"
