PS - Service Status Grouping

[rhysduck]

I have this script (server names and services redacted):

@{
  'xxxxxnew' = 'Capxxxxx'
  'xxxxxnew' = 'Capxxxxx'
  'xxxxxnew' = 'Capxxxxx'
  'xxxxxnew' = 'Capxxxxx'
}.GetEnumerator() | ForEach-Object {
  Get-Service -ComputerName $_.Name -Name $_.Value
} | Select Name, MachineName, Status

which works peferfectly fine. But how do I group the results say on MachineName?

I've tried

• -groupby machinename
• -group-object machinename
• -group machinename

But keep getting an error. Any point me in the right direction please?

Pipe it into an sort-object so:

@{
  'xxxxxnew' = 'Capxxxxx'
  'xxxxxnew' = 'Capxxxxx'
  'xxxxxnew' = 'Capxxxxx'
  'xxxxxnew' = 'Capxxxxx'
}.GetEnumerator() | ForEach-Object {
  Get-Service -ComputerName $_.Name -Name $_.Value
} | Select Name, MachineName, Status | Sort-Object MachineName
