I get two errors from SCOM. The Test-Mailflow works locally on the exchange
box with success but not from SCOM. Any ideas are appreciated.

Alert: An error occurred while running the Test-Mailflow (Local) cmdlet.

Hey James,

So you an run these ps scripts with your id and they work, but when the
agent tries to execute they fail with can't find GC. Did you set up your
Exchange run as accounts in SCOM? Does local host have admin rights on the
box? Just wondering if it is a permissions issue with the ops manager agent
and what credentials it's using to launch the scripts.
