Code issue

    A job step received an error at line 33 in a PowerShell script. The corresponding line is 'Get-WmiObject -ComputerName $serverName -query " '. Correct the script and reschedule the job. The error information returned by PowerShell is: 'Access is denied. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070005 (E_ACCESSDENIED)) '. Process Exit Code -1. The step failed.

    The code works in Powershell ISE but when scheduled as a SQLJob it fails. Is this a permissions issue ? If yes, how to fix it.If not please advise.

    Thanks

    • Does the sqlagent service account have the authority to perform the wmi query?
    • Does the sqlagent job step proxy account have the needed authority to perform the wmi query ?

    Let me check and get back...

    But the query captures data from 100+servers...so how does this work...check on all servers or ....

    Check the account which is running the SQL Agent service on the SQL Server. Unless you have configured a proxy account for the job, that will be the account which is running the PoSh script.
