Hello,
First time on here so let me know if there is another forum I should be asking this question to.
I have a powershell script to collect datastore information from Multiple vCenter servers (2012r2 and 2008R2). I need this script to run as a scheduled task. The following is general information that may help in answering my question/fixing my problem.
The script gathers the datastore information and outputs it to HTML and emails the HTML to a group of system admins.
1. When I run the script from an elevated powershell command prompt it works perfectly.
2. When I run the script from the Task Scheduler (manually) it runs perfectly.
3. After I logout of the server and the task runs from the task scheduler it fails to login to the vCenters and collect the datastore information.
I am using a credential file (created using Get-Credential - Export-Clixml - and Import-Clixml) which works for 1 and 2 above.
How do I get the authentication working for # 3 above, or is there an entirely different method I should be using?
Thanks,
SK
