Problem with Powershell script to check folder sizes on remote servers

$
0
0

My script below is supposed to get the total size of folders and files within acertain directory. However the error shows

 

Get-ChildItem : Cannot find path '\\servername  \c$\Documents and Settings' because it does not exist.

note the gap after servername in path. I think this is the issue but dont know how to get round it.

$hostnames=Get-Content c:\servers.txt
$directory = "c$\Documents and Settings"
$FolderItems = Get-ChildItem -path "\\$hostnames\$directory" -recurse
$Measurement = $FolderItems | Measure-Object -property length -sum
$colitems = $FolderItems | measure-Object -property length -sum
"$hostname,$directory;{0:N2}" -f ($colitems.sum / 1MB) + "MB;" + $Measurement.count + " files;"
