So I have a simple PowerShell script that does a couple simple things. I'll Include it below but essentially it attempts to unmanage a node via the API given the NodeID from the Alert. I also have the output going to a log file.
Here is my Problem: It won't unmanage. Now I have the Alerting Engine and Module Engine services running as a user that has Admin rights on the machine.
If I run the script manually on the machine it works.
If I log in as the User i have the Service running as, It Works.
But When i Trigger it from the Alert, It fails.
My various logs that are generated have indicated that the error is :"The term 'Invoke-SwisVerb' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet..." So It seems that it is able to run the script, however unable to load the Module when the Alert Triggers. Again if I log in as the user on the Windows Machine, I can run the script no problem.
Its a headscratcher for me so I'm hoping someone has an idea?
