Hi,

A script which is working fine fails within Powershell. Why?

This is the error.

export-fimconfig : The type initializer for 'Microsoft.ResourceManagement.WebSer
vices.Client.ResourceManagementClient' threw an exception.

At C:\temp\tncs.ps1:100 char:30
+ $CurObject = export-fimconfig <<<<  -Credential $Credential `
    + CategoryInfo          : NotSpecified: (:) [Export-FIMConfig], TypeInitiali
zationException
    + FullyQualifiedErrorId : System.TypeInitializationException,Microsoft.Resou
rceManagement.Automation.ExportConfig

PowerShell activity is run under FIMService's account credentials. By default FIMService account doesn't exist on FIM Service/Portal so it is unable to query FIM at all.

In this case FIMService is added to the portal. It's already running Ps scripts from the Poweshell activity. That can't be the problem.
