We got about 1200 servers so it would be nice if the wrapper could work as good as the "sydi-server.vbs" script. Hi

I have been testing it out today and I really like it. I have been getting information together for regulatory exam and these scripts are saving me tons of time. Question for you. How do you pronounce SYDI? Is it pronounced like "seedy" or like "sigh-die"? Terrific tool! I have been testing it out today and I really like it.

Love this program and it just helped me to document all the servers I manage. If I can only have one suggestion or if any users has already done it. When you convert all your raw files to an excel and does the summary of all computers, is it possible to include storage information so in a glance you know status of your storage.
