I like a few parts of the code but the documentation is pretty useless unless you can read Powershell. Also, using runtimearguments beats static vars by far ;)

Also, you should have mentioned that Col2 is the Groupname.

Very good idea – I tried it but there are some little errors in the script. I will share it with you:

1) Check Language Settings if Excel Workbook errors occurs

2) The scripts finds no agents with this line “cd (“Monitoring:\” + (get-rootmanagementserver).Principalname)”, but with this line ”

cd (“Monitoring:\” + (get-rootmanagementserver).Principalname + “\Microsoft.SystemCenter.AgentManagedComputerGroup”)”

unfortunatly I got another error while creating the groups:

Exception calling “InsertCustomMonitoringObjectGroup” with “1″ argument(s): “Processing the template failed. See inner exception for details.”

At C:\temp\GroupsFromExcelSheet.ps1:166 char:40

+ $mp.InsertCustomMonitoringObjectGroup <<<< ($group)

+ CategoryInfo : NotSpecified: (:) [], MethodInvocationException

+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : DotNetMethodException

Any idea on this?

Regards

Andy

Some more documentation about how this script works would be very useful, also the Excel sheet.
