Use case needed

[jdhitsolutions]

There doesn't seem to be a way to use the command to handle process objects. For example, I might collect data like this: $p = get-process -ComputerName chi-p50 It is very possible to have multiple instances of a process: $p | group -NoElement | sort count And want to display a table that looks like this

Process        WS   VM   Handles
a                   111   111    11111
b                    122  122   2222

These values would be sums.

Here's another:

$vm = get-vm -computername chi-p50
$p | group -NoElement | sort count

This sort of works as I get a result:

Computername OFF RUNNING SAVED
------------ --- ------- -----
chi-p50        7      10     1
