How to pass local variable to Invoke-Command's -ScriptBlock

Question

I am trying to execute following PowerShell script from Server-2 against Server-1 (i.e. Remote server):

$DBServer = \'Server1\' 

Invoke-Command -ComputerNam         


        

Answer 1

All,
So, finally I figured it out how to pass local variable to -ScriptBlock while using with the Invoke-Commandagainst the remote server.

Here is the code I used and it worked like a charm:

Write-Host "Workflow command was: "$HaloSourceCommandLine

Invoke-Command -ComputerName $DBServer -ScriptBlock {
param ([string] $t1 = $HaloSourceCommandLine, [string] $t2 = $HaloSourceExecutableLocation)

    $status = Start-Process $t2 $t1 -Wait -PassThru
    $ExitCodeInfo = $status.ExitCode
        if ($ExitCodeInfo -ne 0) 
        { 
            Throw "The command exited with error code: $test2"
        }
        else
        {
            Write-host "Workflow executed successfully."    
        }
} -ArgumentList $HaloSourceCommandLine,$HaloSourceExecutableLocation

Hopefully this will help to others if they are having issue executing -ScriptBlock against remote server via Invoke-Command

Thanks, HP
