Split-VmsDeviceGroupPath¶
SYNOPSIS¶
Splits a "unix-style" device group path into an array of strings representing each node in the hierarchy.
SYNTAX¶
DESCRIPTION¶
Splits a "unix-style" device group path into an array of strings representing each node in the hierarchy.
The *VmsDeviceGroup cmdlets implement their own method of describing a Milestone device group hierarchy which simplifies automation. The Split-VmsDeviceGroupPath and Resolve-VmsDeviceGroupPath cmdlets are provided as utility functions for performing operations on device groups to determine their "path" or to split a path up to perform your own operations as needed.
REQUIREMENTS
- Does not require a VMS connection
EXAMPLES¶
Example 1¶
Splits the specified path into the parts "Level 1", "Level 2", and "Level 3"
Example 2¶
Splits the specified path into the parts "Group", "Subgroup1/Childgroup", and "Subgroup2". Note the use of the "backtick" symbol as an escape character for the forward-slash between "Subgroup1" and "Childgroup". If a device group needs to have a forward-slash symbol in the name, it needs to be escaped in PowerShell so that the VmsDeviceGroup cmdlets understand that it isn't supposed to be a path separator.
PARAMETERS¶
-Path¶
Specifies a full unix-style path to the desired device group. See the examples for reference.
