How to use foreach to load xml content for multiple servers (powershell)
I am new to powershell and learning to make a report using powershell:
there is a list of servers and I want to use foreach loop to load xml data from each server and produce an output. below is sample script:
$serverlist = gc ".list.txt"
foreach ($server in $serverlist)
{
$xml = New-object xml
$xml.load ($serverc$xmlfile)
write-host $server: $xml.hardwaretype
}
problem, the script runs on a single server from the list of server and quite.
do I have to unload xml and then reload xml data for next server in the list? how?
thanks in advance.

Your code has syntax errors and won't run as posted; also, please format it properly. What does "and quite" mean?

when I edit the question, it shows me proper code, however, when I post the same code/question, it removes certain things from the code.

That's why you need to follow the instructions that my previous comment linked to. Even leaving rendering aside, however, you source code itself has syntax errors (whitespace after method name, before(; lack of quoting of the method argument;$server:breaks).

$xml = New-Object xml; $null -eq $xml.close; $xml.close()will tell you that an[xml](System.Xml.XmlDocument) instance has noclosemember.
