I have a script which I need to run from the orchestrator's Run .Net activity . The script works fine when ran from the Powershell ISE . However , when I put the same script in the .Net activity of the SCORCH , it just wouldn't run . It keeps telling me 'This cmdlet is not recognized as any cmdlt , function or path'.
Could you please tell me what could be the possible reason behind this and how do I fix it please ?
Hi,
Invoke-WebRequest was introduced in Windows PowerShell 3.0.
So, with Orchestrator 2012 R2, I would set OnlyUseLatestClr in the Registry of the System(s) with Orchestrator Runbook Service:
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft.NETFramework
Reg_DWORD: OnlyUseLatestCLR
Value: 1
Hi Stefan , I cannot possibly thank you enough for suggesting this. This seem to have solved the issue but not entirely. I can now run the script successfully when triggered through runbook tester but the issue still lingers when ran normally in the orchestrator. Any suggestions please ?
Hi @Sourav Mukherjee ,
thank you for you feedback! You're welcome!
When you run an Orchestrator Runbook with Runbook Tester it runs with the context (system and user) Runbook Designer is started. Otherwise the Runbook must be checked in and will be executed with a system which runs "Orchestrator Runbook Service".
I guess the system which executes the Runbook with Orchestrator Runbook Service is different from the system with Runbook Tester. OnlyUseLatestCLR must be set on every system which runs "Orchestrator Runbook Service".
Best regards,
Stefan
Hi,
can you paste the script here?
Which System Center Orchestrator Version do you use? Before System Center 2019 Orchestrator "Run .Net Script" Activity ist started Powershell Version 2.0.
AD-cmdlets for example require a higher version (3).
You can set OnlyUseLatestClr:
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft.NETFramework
Reg_DWORD: OnlyUseLatestCLR
Value: 1
Some cmdlets require 64bit. Until Version 2019 "Run .Net Script" Activity runs in 32-bit. Try to invoke the script with powershell {your script}.
The cmdlets must be available on Orchestrator Runbook Server.
Regards,
Stefan
Thank you for your response. I have tried invoking the whole script but still no luck. Pasting the script below FYR.
Could you please tell me , what else I could do to solve this. The 
script works like a charm in powershell ISE.
The version of the orchestrator is 2012 R2 .
I would recommend you to upgrade the SCORCH 2012 R2 to SCORCH 2016 or later and then use the following method to run the PowerShell script with 64 bit.

The other reason to upgrade is SCORCH 2012 R2 product will be soon out of support in 4 months.
