#Requires -Version 5.1 <# .SYNOPSIS Log directory and path management for Find-UnknownSID operations .DESCRIPTION Handles log path validation, directory creation, and permissions validation for the logging system. Focuses solely on file system operations related to logging infrastructure setup. .NOTES Author: Jeffrey Stuhr Blog: https://www.techbyjeff.net LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jeffrey-stuhr-034214aa/ Last Updated: 2025-07-05 Version: 2.0.0 TROUBLESHOOTING: - For path resolution issues: .\Troubleshooting\FileSystem\Path-Resolution.md - For permission problems: .\Troubleshooting\Security\File-Permissions.md .LINK https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/scripting/learn/deep-dives/everything-about-paths #> function Initialize-LogDirectory { <# .SYNOPSIS Initializes log directory structure and validates log file path .DESCRIPTION Handles all file system operations for logging setup including: - Log path validation and resolution - Directory creation with proper permissions - Log file initialization with header content - Error handling for file system issues This function focuses solely on file system operations and integrates with Initialize-LoggingSystem for complete logging setup. .PARAMETER LogPath Absolute or relative path to the log file. Directory will be created if it doesn't exist. .EXAMPLE PS> Initialize-LogDirectory -LogPath "C:\Logs\script.log" Creates directory structure and initializes log file at specified path .EXAMPLE PS> Initialize-LogDirectory -LogPath ".\Logs\script.log" Creates relative path directory and initializes log file .INPUTS None. This function does not accept pipeline input. .OUTPUTS [string] Resolved absolute path to the log file .NOTES Must be called after Initialize-LoggingSystem to ensure proper state. Creates directories as needed and validates write permissions. Bypasses WhatIf mode for log file operations to ensure logging works during -WhatIf runs. SECURITY CONSIDERATIONS: - Validates path to prevent directory traversal - Creates directories with inherited permissions - Tests write access before setting as active log path PERFORMANCE CHARACTERISTICS: - Execution time: 10-50ms depending on directory creation - Memory usage: Minimal - File system impact: Creates directories and test file TROUBLESHOOTING: - Path resolution handles relative and absolute paths - Graceful fallback to current directory on failures - Comprehensive error logging for file system issues #> [CmdletBinding()] [OutputType([string])] param( [Parameter(Mandatory)] [ValidateNotNullOrEmpty()] [string]$LogPath ) begin { Write-Verbose "Initializing log directory for path: $LogPath" # Get current logging system state $loggingState = Get-LoggingSystemState if (-not $loggingState.CorrelationId) { Write-Warning "Logging system not initialized.
