Bulk creating DNS records

Recently I needed to create tens of DNS records. This little script
automates the creation of DNS records.

The scripts reads a csv file which contains the hostname and the
according IP address. This information is used to launch dnscmd which
creates the DNS records in the supplied DNS zone.

 1
 2$DnsServer = "localhost"  
 3$DnsZone = "test.demo"
 4
 5# Load IP configuration csv file  
 6$HostIPinfo = Import-Csv -Path "C:ScriptsHostIPinfo.csv"
 7
 8.
 9# Create DNS record for every hosts  
10$HostIPinfo | ForEach-Object {  
11    dnscmd $DnsServer /RecordAdd $DnsZone $_.Server /CreatePTR A $_.Management  
12}  

Csv file content

1Server,Management  
2server01,192.168.0.1  
3server02,192.168.0.2  
4server03,192.168.0.3  
5server04,192.168.0.4
