Powershell, how to update several dns records

I have the following script, but am getting an error -

Script -

$CNAMES = Get-Content "C:\Temp\alias.txt" $Query = "Select * from MicrosoftDNS_CNAMEType" $Record = Get-WmiObject -Namespace "root\microsoftdns" -Query $Query -ComputerName 10.10.10.1 | Where-Object{$_.Ownername -match $CNAME} Foreach($CNAME in $CNAMES) { $Record.RecordData = "some.server.net" $Record.put() }

Error -

Property 'RecordData' cannot be found on this object; make sure it exists and is settable. At C:\temp\DNSUpdateCNAMETarget_02.ps1:7 char:9 + $Record. <<<< RecordData = "some.server.net" + CategoryInfo : InvalidOperation: (:) [], RuntimeException + FullyQualifiedErrorId : PropertyAssignmentException

Method invocation failed because [System.Object[]] doesn't contain a method named 'put'. At C:\temp\DNSUpdateCNAMETarget_02.ps1:8 char:12 + $Record.put <<<< () + CategoryInfo : InvalidOperation: (put:String) [], RuntimeExcept ion + FullyQualifiedErrorId : MethodNotFound

TIA

From stackoverflow

• I didn't try (cause i don't have a MS-DNS at hand right now) but i'd suspect that you need

  $Record.PSBase.Put()
  

  to make it work.

  EDIT:

  As it looks $Record holds an array of System.Object so will have to cast it a suitable type to access .RecordData and .Put()

  Your script queries for records of type MicrossoftDNS_CNAMEType which only support CreateInstanceFromPropertyData.

  I would try sending you $Record to Get-Member

  Get-WmiObject -Namespace "root\microsoftdns" -Query $Query -ComputerName 10.10.10.1 | Get-Member
  

  to find out, what you are dealing with.
