ViewCLI | Identify users that did not logon for more than 90days (until -180 days)

$

Hi everyone,

 

i didn't find something that specific - yet i find it pretty useful.

For audit purposes we had to identify users that did not login for more than 90 days (one part of our cleanup strategy).

I also posted this on my Blog: http://beutler.nl/viewcli-find-users-assigned-vm-login-90-days/

 

Basically this script will query the configured Database Server (in this case a MS SQL 2012 server) and result all users that did not login for more than 90 days (but not longer than 180 days).

Please note it does not work (because i lack the knowledge) to identify machine names from users that have more than 2 machines assigned.

In this case you will just see a System.Object[] as return. You can still query those manually with: "get-desktopVM | where { $_.user_displayname -eq “domain\username” }".

It is also logging the broker logins and not the agent logins. This is important for us as it shows the user is still active even though he might not have logged in to a VM.

 

Hopefully its useful for one or the other.

Please check below mentioned comments to be sure that you modify all necessary variables / parts of the code.

 

If you have any recommendations or tweaks let me know!
