Powershell: Get FQDN Hostname

Question

I want to retrieve the FQDN name of windows server via powershell script. I have found 2 solution so far:

$server =  Invoke-Command -ScriptBlock {hostname}
         


        

Answer 1

I use the following syntax :

$Domain=[System.Net.Dns]::GetHostByName($VM).Hostname.split('.')
$Domain=$Domain[1]+'.'+$Domain[2]

it does not matter if the $VM is up or down...
