Unable to Sort the Column

[ganapa2000]

Hi,

Please help as I am unable to sort the column output for "LUN ID"

Get-NSVolume | Select @{N="Vol_Name";E={$_.name}},
@{N="Size(GB)";E={[math]::Round($_.size/1024,2)}},
@{N="EUI";E={$_.serial_number}},
@{N="Status";E={$_.vol_state}},
@{N="IG_Name";E={((Get-NSAccessControlRecord -vol_name $_.name).Initiator_group_name) -Join ('|').Replace('|',"`r`n")}},
@{N="LUN_ID";E={((Get-NSAccessControlRecord -vol_name $_.name).lun) -Join ('|').Replace('|',"`r`n")}} | sort "LUN_ID" | ConvertTo-Html -Head $Header -PreContent "<p><h2>Volume - Initiator Groups Info</h2></p>" -PostContent $post | Set-AlternatingRows -CSSEvenClass even -CSSOddClass odd | ForEach-Object -Process { $_ -replace "`n", "<br>" } >> $reportlocation

What exactly is in the calculated property LUN_ID?

The Sort-Object cmdlet will interpret this property as a String, so if you want to sort on numerical values in that string, you will have to convert the parts into Int.

Hi LucD,

LUD ID is a numerical number.

you mean like this ?

Sort-Object -Property {[int]$_.''LUN ID"}

Yes, if the property only contains numbers.
But I'm not sure what the Join and Replace are doing.
Can you show sample content of that property?

That worked LucD Thank you very much.

I am not sure, why Join and Replace was added, i removed and ran the script that didnt make any difference.

Hence I used {[int]$_."LUN_ID"} that worked.
