Hi guys,

I am trying to access an embedded script resource in my management pack in a console task using its internal identifier of the form below.  [I've used this syntax in a discovery script]

        $fileresource[name="RunCustomApp.ps1"]/path$

Has anyone done this using VSAE 2012 against SCOM 2012 or know why mine throws the following error.

Here is the console task def.

   

<ConsoleTask ID="RunCustomApp" Accessibility="Public" Enabled="true" Target="Windows!Microsoft.Windows.Computer" RequireOutput="true" Comment="Test Console App. Task">
         <assembly>res.custom.app</assembly>
         <handler>shellhandler</handler>
         <parameters>
              <argument name="workingdirectory" />
              <argument name="application">%windir%\system32\windowspowershell\v1.0\powershell.exe</argument>
              <argument>$FileResource[name="RunCustomApp.ps1"]/path$</argument>
         </parameters>
</consoletask>

 The error is:

At line:1 char:15
+ $FileResource[Name=RunCustomApp.ps1]/Path$
+               ~
Array index expression is missing or not valid.
At line:1 char:15
+ $FileResource[Name=RunCustomApp.ps1]/Path$

Thanks,

Paul
