FailoverCluster powershell cmdlets not running through Orchestartor

Question

Hello
I have a simple powershell script :
import-module failoverclusters
get-cluster "clusterName"
The above script runs perfectly fine when I run it on powershell cmd. But when I add the same script to an activity in Orcehstrator, it fails giving this error : The term 'Get-Cluster' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or
operable program. Check the spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is correct and try again.
In fact none of the failover cluster commands work through Orchestrator activity.
Please help me with this.
Thanks
Avanti
Get-Cluster "VLCMUAT2SQL.parttest.extranettest.microsoft.com"

Answer 1

Yes, and in Orchestrator, by default, it's version 2. In your PS console, try this:
powershell
-version 2
And run your cmdlet. Tell me if the command works in command with PS version 2.
Edit: I tried in my environment, and this is the error:
PS C:\Windows\system32> powershell.exe -version 2

Get-Cluster : The term 'Get-Cluster' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable prog
ram. Check the spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is correct and try again.

Try this with your Orchestrator, it should works:
$result = PowerShell {Import-Module FailoverClusters
Get-Cluster -Name ClusterName}
$result
