Running a Powershell Script via RMA

[johnm]

Just getting started with Powershell scripts in HM.
Running v9.38 and RMA v4.54

Trying to run a simple Powershell script.

powershell.exe -file c:\tools\getec2status.ps1 i-356a3b44
where i-356a3b44 is a parameter I'm passing.
The script exits and sets the DOS %errorlevel% to a numeric.

I run this from a DOS prompt on HM server and on RMA, and it works.
I can run it in HM as a local test, (I see the DOS window open and close) and the %errorlevel% is shown as the reply.

Running via an RMA agent it fails to bring back the %errorlevel%, only a 0. I am almost certain the DOS window is not opening on the RMA because I don't see it show up in task manager on the RMA.

These are 2 brand newly built Windows 2008 servers. The HM server is plain Windows 2008, the RMA is R2.

Advice?

I am running both RMA and HM as an application at the moment but will eventually want to run both as a service.

I have performed this change as per another KB here on ks-soft.com
Set-ExecutionPolicy -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Scope LocalMachine

No luck.

last thing I can think of... the RMA is x64 and the HM is x86.

ok I feel kinda silly now for posting so many replies and finally figured it out.

I failed to run the following command in the 32bit version of powershell.
Set-ExecutionPolicy -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Scope LocalMachine

this fixed it.

Can the 64bit version be forced on an RMA if it's a 64bit OS?
Just curious.
