Get SQL Server product key from registry
Function Get-SqlServerKeys {
<#
.SYNOPSIS
Gets SQL Server Product Keys from local and remote SQL Servers. Works with SQL Server 2005-2014
.DESCRIPTION
Using a string of servers, a text file, or Central Management Server to provide a list of servers, this script will go to each server and get the product key for all installed instances. Clustered instances are supported as well. Requires regular user access to the SQL instances, SMO installed locally, Remote Registry enabled and acessible by the account running the script.
Uses key decoder by Jakob Bindslet (http://goo.gl/1jiwcB)
.PARAMETER Servers
A comma separated list of servers. This can be the NetBIOS name, IP, or SQL instance name
.PARAMETER CentralMgmtServer
Compiles list of servers to inventory using all servers stored within a Central Management Server. Requires having SQL Management Studio installed.
.PARAMETER ServersFromFile
Uses a text file as input. The file must be formatted as such:
sqlserver1
sqlserver2
