Is there a way to echo a command and make the status of a worklet visible?

 

Example; if I sent a PS command to a system lets say to unjust something. I would like to see something in the logs showing a status. 

Get-NetAdapter | foreach { Disable-NetAdapterBinding -InterfaceAlias $_.Name -ComponentID ms_tcpip6 }

Current log shows: 

1

nothing else.

Maybe something on how to echo the results or response from the command.

@daniel.newman one way to get more output is to introduce some Boolean logic and add in the logging of choice based on what is being done. 

Get-NetAdapter | ForEach-Object {

    # Get Current State
    $ip6 = Get-NetAdapterBinding -InterfaceAlias $_.Name -ComponentID ms_tcpip6

    # React to Current State
    IF($ip6.Enabled -eq $true){

        # Disable
        Disable-NetAdapterBinding -InterfaceAlias $_.Name -ComponentID ms_tcpip6

        # Check Status of Disabling
        IF($?){ 
            Write-Output "Net Adapter [ $($_.Name) ] ms_tcpip6 was successfully disabled. "
        }else{
            Write-Output "Net Adapter [ $($_.Name) ] ms_tcpip6 was not disabled. "
        }

    }else{
        # Disabled
        Write-Output "Net Adapter [ $($_.Name) ] ms_tcpip6 already disabled. "
    }

} # end ForEach

Using $? in powershell is pretty cool. I’d check out Automatic Variables here --
