Running PowerShell script with arguments

Question

I've been trying to run a PowerShell script with CMD without success.

The script i'm running:

C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe -command 'C:\Program Files\Tivoli\TSM\start-tdpsql-instance.ps1' -dpsqloptfile h:\tsm\dsm.opt -dpsqlcfgfile h:\tsm\tdpsql.cfg

But unfortunately, i get an error message:

You must provide a value expression on the right-hand side of the '-' operator.
At line:1 char:58
+ 'C:\Program Files\Tivoli\TSM\start-tdpsql-instance.ps1' - <<<< dpsqloptfile h
:\tsm\dsm.opt -dpsqlcfgfile h:\tsm\tdpsql.cfg
+ CategoryInfo          : ParserError: (:) [], ParentContainsErrorRecordEx
ception
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : ExpectedValueExpression

Do you have any ideas why it isn't processing my arguments?
