Configuration Item (Query SCVMM server failing)

Question

Hi
I have created a configuration item that runs as a powershell script to check if a virtual machines hard drives are dynamic or static. I can get the powershell script to work by running locally on the server in question. However when it is ran as a configuration
item it reports back as access is denied. I have ran winrm quickconfig on the VMM server and we have no Windows Firewall turned on. The servers are all in the same data center and subnet. Please can I have some pointers on how to get the below
script working.
Many thanks
$vguest = $env:COMPUTERNAME
invoke-command -computername VMMSERVERNAME -scriptblock
{param($Vgu)
Add-PSSnapin microsoft.systemcenter.virtualmachinemanager
(get-vm -vmmserver VMMSERVERNAME $vgu).virtualharddisks

ForEach-Object {if ($_.VHDType -eq "DynamicallyExpanding") {write-host "Compliant"}
else
{write-host "Non-Compliant"}
} -argumentlist $vguest

Hi,
Have you changed the Windows PowerShell Script Execution Policy?
The Set-ExecutionPolicy cmdlet enables you to determine which Windows PowerShell scripts (if any) will be allowed to run on your computer. Windows PowerShell has four different execution policies:
Restricted - No scripts can be run. Windows PowerShell can be used only in interactive mode.
AllSigned - Only scripts signed by a trusted publisher can be run.
RemoteSigned - Downloaded scripts must be signed by a trusted publisher before they can be run.
Unrestricted - No restrictions; all Windows PowerShell scripts can be run.
