I have been looking into WIndows powershell functionality and it appears to be much more flexible than vbscript. I specifically have a use case where I need to back up configuration data that has been entered at a POC and transfer it to another appliance. Currently, it looks as if that is a strictly manual process. I would like to see it automated and ultimately become part of the GUI. As far as I can tell, here is what needs to be backed up to save a configuration - tell me if I missed something.
Views/Alerts: \\nic\3700\sitename\views\* (also an import/export option)
Rules: \\nic\3700\sitename\rules\* (also an import/export option)
Reports: \\nic\3700\sitename\reports\*
Dashboard Reports:\\nic\3700\sitename\?
Event Explorer:located at C:\Program Files\Network Intelligence Corporation\Event Explorer
Commands: C:\Program Files\Network Intelligence Corporation\Event Explorer\Commands
Display Methods:C:\Program Files\Network Intelligence Corporation\Event Explorer\Display Methods
Connections: C:\Program Files\Network Intelligence Corporation\Event Explorer\Connections
The other pieces like ODBC connectors and File Reader configs should also be considered part of the configuration and marked for backup/restore, IMHO.
