Using powershell script to request several servers at same time?

Votes:

0

I've created a powershell script, which requests if all servers made their last backup -> Script is working fine. Now I'm creating a sensor and adding this to the main server, but instead of the result everything is ok I'm getting this error message "Systemfehler: Cannot open log Veeam Agent on machine WJZ-SRV100. Windows has not provided an error code. At C:\Program Files (x86)\PRTG Network Monitor\custom sensors\EXE\VeeamLog.ps1:6 char:14 + ... $veeam = Get-EventLog -ComputerName $server -LogName 'Veeam (Code: PE022)"

What parameters are you using for the script? Did you already try to use the security context option?

Hi Stephan,

thank you for the response, I'm using no parameters. What security context option do you mean?

In the sensor settings, you have a section "Security Context". When this is set to "Use credentials of parent device", is the sensor working afterwards?
