[chef] Powershell query

[ANGELA EBIRIM < >]

Hi everyone,

I'm hoping someone could help me with this as I'm stuck!

I have a powershell command: powershell.exe Get-ChildItem C:\Users\ae\AppData\Local\Temp\3\logstash | Where-Object {_.LastwriteTime -lt (Get-Date).addhours(-12} | Remove-Item -Recurse -Force

which essentially deletes folders within the logstash directory that are older than 12 hours. This needs to be done at a certain time each day.

This command will be included in a Chef recipe and deployed to a Windows Server box.

I'm having difficulty getting this to run at a certain time and was wondering if anyone knew of a way to do this. I've been using the SCHTASKS windows function but this works on a command line but not within a script.

Is anyone aware of a Chef resource that could do this?

Many thanks
