The PowerShell script to purge Exchange Server and IIS log files has been updated to version 2.1.
The function Copy-LogFiles has been slightly rewritten and there has been a change in the cmdlet parameters.
When using ArchiveMode CopyAndZip or CopyZipAndDelete all copied log files in the EXCHANGESERVER\LOGS folder are added to a compressed archive. The script creates a separate archive for IIS and Exchange logs.
Code updated
function Copy-LogFiles { [CmdletBinding()] param( [string]$SourceServer, [string]$SourcePath, $FilesToMove, [string]$ArchivePrefix = '' ) if($SourceServer -ne '') { # path per SERVER for zipped archives $ServerRepositoryPath = Join-Path -Path $RepositoryRootPath -ChildPath $SourceServer # subfolder used as target for copying source folders and files $ServerRepositoryLogsPath = Join-Path -Path $ServerRepositoryPath -ChildPath $LogSubfolderName $ServerRepositoryPath = Join-Path -Path $RepositoryRootPath -ChildPath $SourceServer if(!(Test-Path -Path $ServerRepositoryPath)) { # Create new target directory for server, if does not exist $null = New-Item -Path $ServerRepositoryPath -ItemType Directory -Force -Confirm:$false } foreach ($File in $FilesToMove) { # target directory $targetDir = $File.DirectoryName.Replace($TargetServerFolder, $ServerRepositoryLogsPath) # target file path $targetFile = $File.FullName.Replace($TargetServerFolder, $ServerRepositoryLogsPath) # create target directory, if not exists if(!(Test-Path -Path $targetDir)) {$null = mkdir -Path $targetDir} # copy file to target $null = Copy-Item -Path $File.FullName -Destination $targetFile -Recurse -Force -Confirm:$false -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue } if($ZipArchive) { # zip copied log files $Archive = Join-Path -Path $ServerRepositoryPath -ChildPath ('{0}-{1}' -f $ArchivePrefix, $ArchiveFileName) $logger.Write(('Zip copied files to {0}' -f $ArchiveFileName)) # delete archive file, if already exists if(Test-Path -Path $Archive) {Remove-Item -Path $Archive -Force -Confirm:$false} try { # create zipped asrchive Add-Type -AssemblyName 'System.IO.Compression.FileSystem' [IO.Compression.ZipFile]::CreateFromDirectory($ServerRepositoryLogsPath,$Archive) } catch { $logger.Write(('Error compressing files from {0} to {1}' -f $ServerRepositoryLogsPath, $Archive),3) } finally { # cleanup, if compression was successful if($DeleteZippedFiles) { $logger.Write(('Deleting folder {0}' -f $ServerRepositoryLogsPath)) $null = Remove-Item -Path $ServerRepositoryLogsPath -Recurse -Force -Confirm:$false -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue } } } } }
Note
- The script utilizes the GlobalFunctions PowerShell module which needs to be installed first.
