Hi All, I'm pretty new to Powershell. I have 2 different scripts I'm running that I would like to combine into one script.
Script 1 has 1 line
Stop-Process -ProcessName alcore.* -force
It's purpose is to end any process that begines with "alcore."
Script 2 has 1 line as well
Start-Service -displayname crk*
It starts any service that begins with crk.
How can I combine these into one script? If the processes are running I wish to stop them, if not, I wish to start the services. How can I accomplish this?
I'm trying this but it's not working
$services = Get-Process alcore.*
if($services.Count -qe 1){
Stop-Process -ProcessName alcore.* -force
} else {
Start-Service -displayname crk*
}
How can I do this correctly? Also should I wrap these up in a function and call the function? That seems a bit cleaner. Thanks for any help.
Cheers,
