Export User Roles to file (powershell)
PowerShell script to write all User Roles to a text file. Copy and save code to file with .ps1 extension. Execute the *.ps1 script from within SCOM Command Shell or PowerShell. User input prompts will not work if copying and pasting code directly into shell.
The output file can be used in conjunction with the ImportUserRoles script. Format of the output file is as follows:
Profile: <monitoringProfile>
Name: <userRoleName>
DisplayName: <userRoleDisplayName>
Description: <userRoleDescriptioin>
Users: <account1 account2 account3>
