OnCommand-Insight

OnCommand-Insight PowerShell Module

Installation

The recommended way to install the PowerShell Module is through the new Install-Module Cmdlet available in PowerShell 5. Consider installing PowerShell 5 from https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=50395. Then run

Install-Module OnCommand-Insight

or, if you don't have admin rights just install for the current user

Install-Module OnCommand-Insight -Scope CurrentUser

The OnComamnd Insight PowerShell Cmdlets require at least PowerShell 3.0 and .NET 4.5. Microsoft has documented the required procedures to install PowerShell 3.0 in the article Installing Windows PowerShell.

If you can't install via Install-Module you can download the latest version of OnCommand-Insight.zip from https://github.com/ffeldhaus/OnCommand-Insight/releases/latest. Then extract OnCommand-Insight.zip to your preferred PowerShell Module location (e.g. for current user to $HOME\WindowsPowershell\Documents\WindowsPowerShell\Modules or for all users to C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\Modules).
