You’re not missing anything. PoSHStats was discontinued in favor of this new product. Someone I spoke with a while back was able to uncover an old version on an independent download site somewhere, but I don’t have any further information.

I downloaded the VirtualMetric software, thinking it was included in the package. I could not complete the install because it needs SQLExpress. Am I missing something? How can I get a copy of PoSHSTats?

Unfortunately, none of us here have the inside knowledge to provide support for this product. I have encountered a similar problem and never found a fix. You may be able to contact the author through his site for assistance.

I installed and started PosHStats in a Windows Server 2012 (HyperV enabled) successfully and working as expected. But I did a mistake that I have configured it with HostName set as LOCALHOST, so I was not able to browse to “https://:8080” from remote machine.
So I tried the below,
– Stopped the Job in Task Scheduler
– Uninstalled PoshServer and PoshStats
– Deleted all contents from PoshServer and PoshStats and removed the folder as well

Then I reinstalled PoshServer and PoshStats on the same Server and ran the below command,

“Start-PoshStats -HostName server01 -port 8080”
And I got the acknowledgement as You can browse to the URL “http:server01:8080”. But when I try to browse that URL, I’m getting white Page with footer set to “@Copyright 2012. All rights Reserved. Virtual Machine REsource Usage Report by PoSHStats”

Even I tried creating another job with port no 82 as well, but the same issue.

Hi,
I’ve been leaving your post unanswered because I don’t know the answer and I was hoping someone else would jump in.
All I can suggest is trying the ‘Import-Module PoSHStats’ line that it recommends. If that doesn’t help, I’ll unfortunately need to refer you back to the script’s creator. I just don’t have the necessary internal knowledge of this script to give you an authoritative answer.
Sorry!

PoSHStats relies on the VM Metering cmdlets which are only available in 2012.

When trying to install PoSHStats, which I downloaded following the link on top of this article, I get the message “PoSHStats cannot be installed on the following versions: …” indicating all Windows x64 OS.

On my two installations, the clients appeared instantly…or as quick as I could type in the url anyway. I did run from the host desktop instead of remotely. Also, in both cases, I did run IE10 (Server 2012 don’t ya’ know) and there was no flash error.
