Get list of installed features and roles on all domain servers - Powershell

Question

Get list of installed features and roles on all domain servers - Powershell

Get-ADComputer -Filter 'operatingsystem -like "server" -and enabled -eq "true"' `
-Properties Name,Operatingsystem,OperatingSystemVersion,IPv4Address |
Sort-Object -Property Operatingsystem |
Select-Object -Property Name,Operatingsystem,OperatingSystemVersion,IPv4Address|Export-Csv c:\temp\allservers.csv -NoTypeInformation

above command is giving servers name, which looks good but when i run below command it gives me only one computer (last name in allservers.csv) role and feature info , i need all servers list of installed features and roles

$lists=Import-Csv c:\temp\allservers1.csv
foreach($list in $lists){
Get-WindowsFeature -ComputerName $list.name | Where-Object {$_. installstate -eq "installed"} |
select Name,Installstate | export-csv c:\temp\pelicanservers1-roles.csv -NoTypeInformation
}

above command should give role and feature info for all servers which is mentioned in allservers.csv and export file pelicanservers1-roles.csv should have servers name as well for which role and feature is associated with.

Thanks in advance for help!

Here you go bud...you were almost there - you just needed to get your server name into a form where it could be output using calculated values

#Build our source file in case it doesn't already exist or is out of date and pull in the result  
  
import-module activedirectory  
  
Get-ADComputer -Filter {OperatingSystem -Like "Windows Server*"} | `  
Select-Object -ExpandProperty Name | `  
Out-file "\\yoursevername\c$\All_Servers.txt"  
  
#Pull your results back in  
$computers= get-content '\\yoursevername\c$\All_Servers.txt'  
  
#delete the existing file we're about to created if it's there since we're running an append...otherwise, we'd need to manually delete the file before each script run  
del "\\yoursevername\c$\All_Servers_Installed_Roles_and_Features.csv"  
  
#Iterate through each server and pull desired info - we have to use a calculated value to prepend the server name to each output row since Get-WindowsFeature doesn't supply it  
foreach($computer in $computers){  
  Get-WindowsFeature -ComputerName $computer | Where-Object {$_. installstate -eq "installed"} |  
  Select @{Name='Server';Expression={$computer}}, DisplayName, Name, FeatureType, Parent, Path |   
  export-csv "\\yoursevername\c$\All_Servers_Installed_Roles_and_Features.csv" -Append -NoTypeInformation -Encoding UTF8  
  }    
  
$doneflag

Hello

Thank you for your question and reaching out.
I can understand you are having some issues related to get installed features and roles on all servers.

You can try below powershell code block assimung that WinRM and RPC is enabled.

(Get-Content .\Servers.txt| foreach{Invoke-Command -ComputerName $_ -Verbose -ScriptBlock{get-windowsfeature `
| ?{$_.installed -eq $true -and $_.featuretype -eq 'Role'} | select name, installed -ExcludeProperty subfeatures} -Credential $creds}) 
`| ft -Property Name, Installed, @{name='Server Name';expression={$_.pscomputername}} | Export-Csv info.csv -NoTypeInformation
