Powershell Error Handling

There are two common parameters for error handling.

-Erroraction and -Errorvariable

To know about common parameters:

Get-Help -Name about_CommonParameters;

if an error occurs while running the script it will save that error in automatic variable

Automatic variable : $error

Error handling is very important when you write scripts. You should know what is happening when the script is running. you could catch errors if the error occurs while running the script

Syntax:

Try
{

}
catch
{

$_

}

Finally

{

}

Put your scripts in Try block and Catch block would catch the errors while running the scripts.
