[Powershell] Get System Services Sorted into Running and Stopped - ArkPhaze - 11-26-2011

Code:
$Services_ = Get-Service | write-output
$running = 1; $stopped = 1

write-host 
write-host "#" Running Services "#" -foregroundcolor "magenta"
foreach ($objItm in $Services_) {
	$Display_ = $objItm.DisplayName
	
		If ($objItm.Status -eq "Running") {
			write-host "                         "$running")" $objItm.Name "("$Display_")" -foregroundcolor "white"
			$running += 1
		}
}

write-host 
write-host "#" Stopped Services "#" -foregroundcolor "magenta"
foreach ($objItm in $Services_) {
	$Display_ = $objItm.DisplayName
	
		If ($objItm.Status -eq "Stopped") {
			write-host "                         "$stopped")" $objItm.Name "-- ("$Display_")" -foregroundcolor "white"
			$stopped += 1
		}
}

write-host "-------------------------------------------------------------------" -foregroundcolor "magenta"
write-host "#" There are a Total of ($running -1) Running Services, and ($stopped -1) Stoppped Services -foregroundcolor "magenta"
write-host "-------------------------------------------------------------------" -foregroundcolor "magenta"
write-host

Here's another script I created which will display all of your systems currently running services and stopped services. use it as a commandlet for faster accessibility. Smile

Yep, the power of powershell Smile

Here are the commandlets

Code:
Start-Service

Code:
Stop-Service

OMFG A FUNCTION FOR IT? you need to include a huge custom made file for just doing that XD
but there is a 1 line method for it too...

RE: [Powershell] Get System Services Sorted into Running and Stopped - ArkPhaze - 11-26-2011

I parse the data and pipeline it out into my own formatted sequence of data from the commandlet Get-Service in my script above, through sorting the data for each object in the array into sub array strings before moving on to the next object in the commandlet.

I could actually add them to arrays, and provide a further option as a "Menu" or something like that to take user input for stopping and starting a service too.

$Services_ basically just holds the data of the full output from Get-Service, then I tear down that pile of information and build my own smaller organized piles of that information sorting it out in the way I want it to display

Oh thanks for the explanation Smile

but can you also do

Code:
foreach ($objItm in Get-Service)

directly?

RE: [Powershell] Get System Services Sorted into Running and Stopped - ArkPhaze - 11-26-2011

Yeah, that's correct. If I want to do something else with that data though it's easier to use a variable as a placeholder for that information.
