Powershell: Update all Document Libraries with MajorVersionLimit and MajorWithMinorVersionsLimit
by mysticslayer on Jun.15, 2011, under blog, Powershell, SharePoint 2010
I had to write a Powershell script to run thru all sites in a Web Application to enable Versioning. As well Major as Minor versions. With of course a limit on Major and Minor versions.
Next script should do the trick:
Add-PSSnapin Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell -erroraction SilentlyContinue
$siteURL = $args[0]
$site = Get-SPSite($siteURL)foreach($web in $site.AllWebs) {
Write-Host "Inspecting " $web.Title
foreach ($list in $web.Lists) {
if($list.BaseType -eq "DocumentLibrary") {
Write-Host "Versioning enabled: " $list.EnableVersioning
$host.UI.WriteLine()
Write-Host "MinorVersioning Enabled: " $list.EnableMinorVersions
$host.UI.WriteLine()
Write-Host "EnableModeration: " $list.EnableModeration
$host.UI.WriteLine()
Write-Host "Major Versions: " $list.MajorVersionLimit
$host.UI.WriteLine()
Write-Host "Minor Versions: " $list.MajorWithMinorVersionsLimit
$host.UI.WriteLine()
$list.EnableVersioning = $true
$list.EnableMinorVersions = $true
$list.MajorVersionLimit = 2
$list.MajorWithMinorVersionsLimit = 5
$list.Update()
Write-Host $list.Title " is updated with MajorVersionLimit 2 and MajorwithMinorVersionsLimit = 5"
}
}
}
