As a newly SharePoint supporter, I find it difficult to get overview for my company's customers SharePoint Server; e.g. installation, setup, topology.
Is there a PowerShell script which can provide this information.
I was thinking about Server OS, IP numbers. SharePoint versions, status on build ( ex. CU), status of security ( FBA or Keberos) Name of administrators etc, all the information that is necessary for getting an overview of the farm.
Without the use of third-party tools, there isn't one simple Cmdlet to gather all of this information. You can, however, use a combination of Cmdlets to get the information. Here are a few examples. I do recommend going through the available SharePoint Cmdlets on TechNet to see what else suits your needs.
SharePoint Version (which you can manually correlate to an SP/CU from info available on the web):
(Get-SPFarm).BuildVersion
SP Server Details (you can do some formatting to get specific properties you are looking for):
Get-SPServer
This post has an example on how to get the OS information from a list of servers (which you can get the names for from the previous Cmdlet): http://www.myitforum.com/articles/2/view.asp?id=10377

Found a good solution on CodePlex
