    Look at line #14 in the code you posted: 

    Get-ClusterResource -Name $IPresourceName | Get-ClusterParameterWrite-Host

    Remove the trailing "Write-Host" from that line.

    Also check lines 18, 19, 21,25, and 26 for mistakes.

    i have modified the script but still the probe port is not listening 

    $ProbePort = 12345
$ClusterRoleName = "SAPRole"
$IPResourceName = "SAP IP" # the IP Address resource name
$ListenerILBIP = "192.168.10.5"
$IPResourceClusterParameters = Get-ClusterResource $IPresourceName | Get-ClusterParameter
$IPAddress = ($IPResourceClusterParameters | Where-Object {$_.Name -eq "Address" }).Value

$SubnetMask = ($IPResourceClusterParameters | Where-Object {$_.Name -eq "SubnetMask" }).Value
$OverrideAddressMatch = ($IPResourceClusterParameters | Where-Object {$_.Name -eq "OverrideAddressMatch" }).Value
$EnableDhcp = ($IPResourceClusterParameters | Where-Object {$_.Name -eq "EnableDhcp" }).Value
$OldProbePort = ($IPResourceClusterParameters | Where-Object {$_.Name -eq "ProbePort" }).Value
$var = Get-ClusterResource | Where-Object { $_.name -eq $IPresourceName }Write-Host "Current configuration parameters for SAP IP cluster resource '$IPresourceName' are:" -ForegroundColor Cyan
