' Script shows the state of all VMs on a Hyper-V enabled server
' Cobbled together by Johnkel@Microsoft.com
'
strComputer = "."
Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:\\" & strComputer & "\root\virtualization")
Set vmcollecion = objWMIService.ExecQuery("SELECT * FROM Msvm_ComputerSystem",,48)

Wscript.Echo VbCrLF
Wscript.Echo "Name Description State "
Wscript.Echo "--------------------------------------- ---------------------------------- -------------"

For Each vm in vmcollecion

VMStateCode = vm.EnabledState
Select Case VMStateCode
        Case 2 VMState = "Running"
         Case 3     VMState = "PowerOff"
         Case 4     VMState = "ShuttingDown"
        Case 10   VMState = "Reset"
        Case 32768 VMState = "Paused"
