I have recently started taking online Active Directory courses and in the process, I have developed a script for moving computers between OUs. The script is fine and running, but I was wondering if someone can help me change it to GUI(exe) file.
I have looked around and it does not seem there is a good place to provide a nice explanation. Code is below:
...script searches a computer given a keyword. user selects one of the computers listed after search. script then searches an OU based on a keyword input from user. Then, then uses chooses an option of the OUs listed after search. Script then moves the computer to that OU.
Import-Module ActiveDirectory
$computerName = Read-Host -Prompt 'Enter The Name of The Computer You Want To Move'
$temp = Get-ADComputer -filter "Name -like '*$computerName*'" -Properties DistinguishedName | Select-Object -Property DistinguishedName
#$comp[0].DistinguishedName.Split("=").Split(",")[1]
Function Select-Computer
{
$counter = 0
Write-Host "Select Item"
foreach ($c in $temp)
{
write-host "$counter :" $c.DistinguishedName.Split("=").Split(",")[1]
$Counter++
}
[ValidateNotNullOrEmpty()]
$Selection = Read-Host -Prompt 'Choose the computer you want to move'
return $temp[$Selection]
}
$returned = Select-Computer
$computerLocation = $returned.DistinguishedName
$keyword = Read-Host -Prompt "Enter a keyword of the OU you want to move to"
$find = Get-ADOrganizationalUnit -Filter "Name -like '*$keyword*'" -Properties DistinguishedName | Select-Object -Property DistinguishedName
Function Select-OU
{
$counter = 0
Write-Host "Select the OU"
foreach ($ou in $find)
{
$canonicalName = Get-ADOrganizationalUnit -Identity $ou.DistinguishedName -Properties CanonicalName | Select-Object CanonicalName
write-host "$counter :" $ou.DistinguishedName.Split("=").Split(",")[1] in "$canonicalName".Split("=").Replace("@", "").Replace("{", "").Replace("}", "").Replace("CanonicalName", "")
#DistinguishedName.Split("=").Replace("OU", "").Replace(",", "/")
#
$Counter++
}
[ValidateNotNullOrEmpty()]
$Selection = Read-Host -Prompt 'Choose the target you OU'
return $find[$Selection]
}
$return = Select-OU
$targetOU = $return.DistinguishedName
Move-ADObject -Identity "$computerLocation" -TargetPath "$targetOU" -Verbose
