Having this code in powershell:

$Servers = "computer.domain.com" # Open Session $Session = New-PSSession -ComputerName $Servers # Create Daily Checkpoints. Invoke-Command -Session $Session -ScriptBlock {Get-Vm * | Checkpoint-Vm -SnapshotName "Daily Snapshot" –AsJob}

My snapshot is created but with default name, why is -SnapshotName parameter ignored?

Doing this from PS ISE works as expected...

  • @MichaelBrown No error just the given name is not used. Is there any log I can check on remote host, that shows what command was executed? Commented Mar 16, 2017 at 7:26
  • @MDMarra Not really. It could be set for month in windows scheduler. It will be done in middle of the night and there will be second task, that deletes these checkpoints older than... Commented Mar 16, 2017 at 8:14
