Use PowerShell to run virus scan on multiple servers

Use PowerShell to run virus scan on multiple servers

'm trying to run a virus scan on a list of servers in our environment.
There are hundreds of machines, so we'd like to run the scan (using a
command line prompt that we already have) around 10 at a time. We're
totally new to PowerShell so any help would be really appreciated. We have
a general idea of what commands we need to use -- here's how we think it
might work for now:
$server = Get-Content "serverlist.txt"
$server | % {
$VirusScan = { Scan32.exe }
Invoke-Command -ScriptBlock { $VirusScan } -computerName $server
-ThrottleLimit 10 -Authentication domain/admin
}
Anyone have any suggestions on how we might orchestrate this?
