This script works without errors, but all parameters (IPs, DNS, passwords) remain untouched

 

$masterName = "Server"

$snapName = "Master"

$dsName = "Stor01"

$rpName = "DPool"

$oscustName = "Easy"

 

# Create a non-persistent copy

$oscust = Get-OSCustomizationSpec -Name $oscustName

$vm = Get-VM -Name $masterName

 

 

# Get the snapshot

if($vm.PowerState -eq "PoweredON"){

  "Master VM $vmName needs to be powered off"

  return

}

Try {

  $snap = Get-Snapshot -Name $snapName -VM $vm -ErrorAction Stop

}

Catch {

  $snap = New-Snapshot -Name $snapName -VM $vm

}

 

 

# Create the linked clones

Import-Csv C:\scripts\ed.csv -UseCulture | %{

  # Configure NIC settings

  $nicParams = @{

    IpMode = "UseStaticIP"

    IPAddress = $_.IP

    SubnetMask = $_.Mask

    DefaultGateway= $_.Gateway

    Dns = $_.Dns

  }

  Get-OSCustomizationNicMapping -OSCustomizationSpec $oscust |

  Set-OSCustomizationNicMapping @nicParams

 

  # Set admin password

  $osParams = @{

    AdminPassword = $_.Password

    NamingScheme = "Fixed"

    NamingPrefix = $_.Name

  }

  Get-OSCustomizationSpec $oscust |

  Set-OSCustomizationSpec @osParams

 

 

  # Create linked clone

  $cloneParams = @{

    Name = $_.Name

    VM = $vm

    ReferenceSnapshot = $snap

    LinkedClone = $true

    ResourcePool = $rpName

    Datastore = $dsName

    OSCustomizationSpec = $osSpec

  }

 

 

  New-VM @cloneParams

  Start-VM $_.Name

}
