[PowerShell] How to use new commands introduced in EV 11

In Enterprise Vault 11.0, there are many PowerShell commands introduced.

This is an introduction to how to get started.

1. Start  “Enterprise Vault Management Shell”
2. By default, new commands introduced in EV 11 will result in an error.
3. You have to manually load these 5 modules .
   

   Symantec.EnterpriseVault.PowerShell.AdminAPI.dll
   Symantec.EnterpriseVault.PowerShell.Core.dll
   Symantec.EnterpriseVault.PowerShell.IMAP.dll
   Symantec.EnterpriseVault.PowerShell.Monitoring.dll
   Symantec.EnterpriseVault.PowerShell.Snapin.dll    
   

   This is an easy to import them and confirm they are loaded by Get-module command.

   PS> Get-ChildItem -Filter *PowerShell*dll | %{ Import-Module $_.FullName} 
   PS> (Get-Module).Name
   

4. Next, you want to know what kind of commands are available.
   You can go to the document here   or you can list them by Get-Command.

   PS> get-command -Module Symantec.EnterpriseVault.PowerShell* |Sort-Object ModuleName |ft -AutoSize
   

5. To understand the usage of each commands, you can reference the document or do get-help.
6. Since this is PowerShell , little formatting like the following makes the output nice.
   

   PS> Get-EVTask |%{ [pscustomobject]@{State=(Get-EVTaskState $_.EntryID);Name=$_.name;}}|ft -auto
