c# programatically exporting transport rule

Question

Exporting transport rule programmatically

Hi ,

I am trying to export transport rule programmatically.

My code works for simple commands like

get-exchangeserver, get-TransportRule etc but if I try to give command importing rules to some file it gives error that the given command is not recognized as cmdlet, script….

My code is as below ( I have tried giving both windows authentication or user ‘s authentication who is exchange admin)

WSManConnectionInfo connectionInfo = new WSManConnectionInfo(   serverUri,

                                                                            SHELL_URI,

                                                                            creds);

            try

            {

                using (Runspace rs = RunspaceFactory.CreateRunspace(connectionInfo))

                {

                    PowerShell psh = PowerShell.Create();

                    psh.Runspace = rs;

                    rs.Open();

psh.AddCommand("$file = Export-TransportRuleCollection -ExportLegacyRules" +"Set-Content -Path " + @"C:\LegacyRules3.xml" + "-Value file.FileData -Encoding Byte");

                

psh.Invoke();

I am using c# and exchange server 2010 PowerShell version is 1.0 the remoite os is winodws 7.

Any idea what correction I should do?

Hi,

Can you try

psh.AddScript

instead of 

psh.AddCommand

Hi Laeeq Qazi,

I tried code from below link:

http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/sbappdev/thread/3c143111-eb14-4235-8084-5edec8202f8b/

and now my code works for remote connection, but now I am trying for running the code directly on exchnag server and facing issue that is getting same error that the given command is not recognized as cmdlet, script….

I have set ExecutionPolicy unrestricted still facing issue, below is not sure what is the problem,

Let me know if you have sample code  to call script through c# exchange server(i.e not by remote method)
