将-ea与Add-PSSnapin一起使用时Powershell停止工作

Question

i just encountered this strange behaviour:

The following line causes powershell to stop working:

Add-PSSnapin Microsoft.Exchange.Management.PowerShell.E2010 -Erroraction Silentlycontinue

while the following works fine:

Add-PSSnapin Microsoft.Exchange.Management.PowerShell.E2010

This is the problem signature found in the Eventviewer:

P1: powershell.exe

P2: 6.3.9600.17090

P3: System.NullReferenceException

P4: System.TypeInitializationException

P5: unknown

P6: oft.Exchange.Diagnostics.SystemTraceControl.Update

P7: unknown

Does anyone have a clue why this happens? The system runs on Server 2012R2

Thanks in advance

Answer 1

I had this exact issue on Server 2012 R2. I was able to get it working by leveraging the -name argument.

Add-PSSnapin -name "Microsoft.Exchange.Management.PowerShell.E2010"
