There are several ways to create new objects in PowerCLI. In fact, you have already been creating new objects by using the Select-Object -Property command. In the following section, you will learn more ways to create new objects.
PowerShell has its own cmdlet to create objects: New-Object. You can use this cmdlet to create a Microsoft .NET Framework or COM object.
The New-Object cmdlet has the following syntax. The first parameter set is for creating a Microsoft .NET Framework object:
New-Object [-TypeName] <String> [[-ArgumentList] <Object[]>]
[-Property <IDictionary>] [<CommonParameters>]
The -TypeName parameter is required.
The second parameter set is for creating a COM object:
New-Object [-ComObject] <String> [-Property <IDictionary>]
[-Strict] [<CommonParameters>]
The -ComObject parameter is required.
