Hey everyone,
how can I add a datasource to Remote Desktop Manager via PowerShell?
I am trying it the following way:
$nyDatasource = New-RDMDataSource -SQLServer -Database "RemoteDesktopManager" -Name "test" -Server "testserver\RDM" -IntegratedSecurity Set-RDMDataSource -DataSource $nyDatasource Set-RDMCurrentDataSource -DataSource $nyDatasource
If I then issue another
Get-RDMDatasource
the datasource is displayed.
However, when I close PowerShell and reopen it and then use
Get-RDMDatasource
the datsource is gone.
This also happens when I open RDM. The datasource is not there.
Am I missing something or is there a bug?
Cheers,
Mark
PS: Where can I find the documentation for these Cmdlets anyway?
I've tried around a little bit more.and found out that this only happens when there is no %LOCALAPPDATA%\Devolutions\Remote Desktop Manager folder. When I open RDM once and then close it again, the Cmdlets work as expected.
What would I have to do to add a datasource to a fresh configuration?
Hi
You are using it correctly, PowerShell should be able to operate without RDM being installed.
That being said, I was able to produce your issue on my end and I know what is happening.
I'll work on a fix.

Hi, me again.
I fix for your issue will be available in the next release.
Your data source will now save and load correctly without using RDM first.
