VB Script: Delete multiple shares on a server with deleting the C$ and D$ share.
VB Script: Delete multiple shares on a server with deleting the C$ and D$ share.
- Hi, I have just recently been thrown into VB Scripting as a means to make me and my fellow admin's jobs a bit easier. Right now we are migrating about 1000 user shares off a server and onto a new CIF. I wrote a script for this that lists all user folders in a directory (all of them are shared folders) and then runs that list (a saved txt file) through a loop that first unshares their drive, then xcopy's their data to the new server. The script runs...but it is extremely slow. I'm pretty sure it is getting hung up on querying all of the shares via:
As we have over 1000 shares on that server. So I figure it might be easier on the front end to delete all shares then migrate their data. However I can't delete the standard C$ and D$ share, as that is how I am xcopying their data over. But I am specifically noticing the "Select * from Win32_Share" in that snippet of code and was wondering if there is a way to select all the shares that start with "a" and so on and so forth (i.e. a*).Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:" _ & "{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\" & strServer & "\root\cimv2" ) Set colShares = objWMIService.ExecQuery _ ("Select * from Win32_Share Where Name = '" & strUsrShare & "'" ) For Each objShare in colShares objShare.Delete Next
If anyone has any ideas, thoughts, suggestions that would be awesome.
Thanks a lot!

- Shouldn't be a problem. The WQL can handle that sort of query.

- Thanks for the reply! But would this cause reason for the script to run slowly? Querying that many shares?
- Querying that many shares may take a while to begin with, although if your doing this locally it should run just fine. One thing to remember though, since you are using the operator and only looking for things that start wiht a* this will limit your results drastically.
You can also query all shares and exclude certain shares.
Select * from Win32_Share Where Not Name = 'C$' AND Not Name = 'D$'
I would also recommend you to avoid deleting other administrative shares like admin$, ipc$, print$ etc.- Building on perhof's reply it could be easier to build your query to just exclude administrative shares all together.
("Select * from Win32_Share Where Name Like 'a%' AND Type = '0'")
