= Hyper-V Get Host for VM = **Summary**: How to get the host for a particular VM in Hyper-V 2. \\ **Date**: Around 2020 \\ **Refactor**: 1 March 2025: Checked links and formatting. \\ {{tag>hyperv powershell}} Use the following script to schedule a daily report to get the host for a particulat VM. The email functionality is imported from a default functions script as explained in [[adcontrols]]. Note that the script uses the SCCM Hyper-V commandlets, which are available after you install the [[https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/system-center/vmm/install?view=sc-vmm-1807 |Virtual Machine Manager (VMM) management server]] == The Script ==
