Limit Debug info logging from Powershell scritpts
-
When running any Powershell scripts where an Import of a module occurs the BuildMaster execution will output the entire loading of each cmdlet from the import step.
I'm wondering if there is someway to suppress this at the script level and if not there then a way to do so globally?
At times this can add thousands of lines to the logs and unless you are debugging the import it's useless data.
I know you can un-check the Debug option when viewing the log but that turns it off for everything. I just want to make it so the Powershell scripts do not log this extra data at least not unless I need it to.Product: BuildMaster
Version: 6.1.1

Was the -verbose attribute specified in the script? I don't know of any way to suppress this off-hand, perhaps you can try
-Verbose:$falseor pipe toOut-Null
-
No, i'm not using the -verbose flag and I did try:
import-module modulename 1>$null which does work outside BuildMaster.
I did not try piping to Out-Null so I'll try that.
I'll also try the -verbose:$false even though I'm not implicitly calling it.

Jon,
Did using the
Out-Nullhelp to limit the logging?
-
No, neither method works, -verbose:$false nor Out-Null.
It does seem to work with some commands but import-module specifically it does not.

Jon,
I haven't found too much on this besides what we already recommended. I did find this option specifically for Import-module : https://stackoverflow.com/a/28512164
