Running Multiple Commands/Script

hello,

i'm total powershell noob. i've been working on getting few things work little more automatically. have 3 commands run individually, i'm not sure how combine them intelligence.

the commands are:

copy-item \\hostname\serverprereqs$ -destination c:\serverprereqs -recurse

install-windowsfeature -configurationfilepath c:\serverprereqs\sccm_features_roles.xml -source c:\serverprereqs\sxs

copy-item \\hostname\sql2012patches$ -destination c:\serverprereqs -recurse

i run them individually. first 1 takes 10 minutes due copying on wan connection. there anyway can set run line line, knowing first line has finish before second can run successfully?

hi nwebb,

yes there is! can create script file (a simple txt file ending .ps1 instead of .txt)and write down 3 lines. each line, append "-erroraction stop" (without quotes). powershell commandline call script this:

. c:\examplefolder\script.ps1

or if it's stored in current path ...

. .\script.ps1

cheers,
fred
