  1. #Written by Felipe Binotto

  3.  
  4. #Get all computers names from some specific OU and sort it. 
  5. #For each computer in the OU, get its model and write it to its description in AD. 
  6.  
  7. $OU = get-QADComputer -SearchRoot 'staff.vuw.ac.nz/VUW_Workstations/Desktops' -SizeLimit 0 | % {$_.name} | sort 
  8. foreach($computer in $OU){ 
  9. $model = (Get-WmiObject win32_computersystem -computername $computer -ErrorVariable err -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue).model 
  10. if($err){ 
  11. Set-QADComputer $computer -Description Unavailable} 
  12. else{ 
  13. Set-QADComputer $computer -Description $model}} 

Get the computer model through a WMI query (you can get something else) and write it to the computer description in AD.

Do not forget to change the path to your required OU.
