I'm trying to remove the groups from users in other domain.
Example: Me as admin wants to disable an user and remove his groups in other domain.
The problem is I don't know how to use Remove-ADGroupMember -Server
in Foreach
loop, if I don't use Foreach
I can use the -Server
option.
Error of Remove-ADGroupmember:
How can I get -Server
property within Foreach
?
$groups = (Get-Aduser -server ServerY -Identity manusys -Properties MemberOf).memberof
Foreach ($group in $groups) {
Remove-ADGroupMember -identity $group -Members manusys -Confirm:$false -ErrorAction:SilentlyContinue
}
The user account Manusys
has these groups:
CN=NO_CamerasAlertMGR,OU=Ordinary Distribution Lists,OU=Distribution Lists,DC=test,DC=com CN=NO_CamerasAlertCM,OU=Ordinary Distribution Lists,OU=Distribution Lists,DC=test,DC=com CN=NO_CamerasReport,OU=Ordinary Distribution Lists,OU=Distribution Lists,DC=test,DC=com CN=NO_CamerasReport_CM,OU=Ordinary Distribution Lists,OU=Distribution Lists,DC=test,DC=com CN=NO_CamerasReport_MGR,OU=Ordinary Distribution Lists,OU=Distribution Lists,DC=test,DC=com
The Server
param is available to use with Remove-ADGroupMember
, using it within foreach
doesn't change this.
Don't just rely on the ISE auto-prompts, referring to the documentation (remove-adgroupmember) will always show you what parameters are available.
The problem you are actually seeing, is that the ISE no longer prompts/shows the commands parameters once you've used one of the Common Parameters (Confirm
& ErrorAction
in your code, but there are others)...
You can see this with the command by itself - it will continue to prompt for params:
Remove-ADGroupMember -identity $group -Members manusys
But add a CommonParam, and it will not provide its own params anymore:
Remove-ADGroupMember -identity $group -Members manusys -Confirm:$false
So to fix your original issue, add the Server
param to Remove-ADGroupMember
:
$groups = (Get-Aduser -server ServerY -Identity manusys -Properties MemberOf).memberof
Foreach ($group in $groups) {
Remove-ADGroupMember -server ServerY -identity $group -Members manusys -Confirm:$false -ErrorAction:SilentlyContinue
}
