So if I have
PowerCLI P:\My Documents> nslookup mickeymouse
Server: lookup.mycompany.com
Address: 192.56.45.90
Name: mickeymouse.mycompany.com
Address: 192.30.2.4
So with the above information, is it even possible to query a nslookup and populate the IP into a variable.
$ip
So what I am wanting is to just to have to input the hostname of the vm I intend to create and have it query to pull its address. Is it possible, is there something better than nslookup?
I know of how to get it this way but I do not know how to just pull the exact IP and not the other parts of the string....
PowerCLI P:\My Documents $test = [System.Net.Dns]::GetHostAddresses("vmname01") |select IPADDRESSToString
PowerCLI P:\My Documents\ Write-Host $test
@{IPAddressToString=192.30.2.4}
I need just in my variable...
192.30.2.4
