Create a new topology file

New-D365TopologyFile [-Path] <String> [-Services] <String[]> [-NewPath] <String> [<CommonParameters>]

Build a new topology file based on a template and update the ServiceModelList

New-D365TopologyFile -Path C:\Temp\DefaultTopologyData.xml -Services "ALMService","AOSService","BIService" -NewPath C:\temp\CurrentTopology.xml

This will read the "DefaultTopologyData.xml" file and fill in "ALMService","AOSService" and "BIService" as the services in the ServiceModelList tag. The new file is stored at "C:\temp\CurrentTopology.xml"

$Services = @(Get-D365InstalledService | ForEach-Object {$_.Servicename})

PS C:\> New-D365TopologyFile -Path C:\Temp\DefaultTopologyData.xml -Services $Services -NewPath C:\temp\CurrentTopology.xml

This will get all the services already installed on the machine. Afterwards the list is piped to New-D365TopologyFile where all services are import into the new topology file that is stored at "C:\temp\CurrentTopology.xml"
