Powershell & licence

avatar

Hello,

We are using RDM (including 10 user licences) and we are running a PowerShell script (using the Windows task scheduler) on the databse server (Microsoft SQL).

The problem we are facing is that we are obliged to attribute a RDM licence to the Windows user (AD domain account) that is running the script whereas this user does not use RDM daily.

The code is:

$DataSource = Get-RDMDataSource -Name "XXXXX"
Register-RDMFromDataSource $DataSource
Set-RDMCurrentDataSource $DataSource

Is there another solution?

Thanks in advance.

Regards

Hello,

With a Devolutions Server or a Password Hub Business data source, it is possible to use Application key to connect to the data source in the RDM PowerShell module, but that option is unfortunately not possible with a SQL (or Azure SQL) data source. The user used for the automation will need to have an RDM license assigned.

Best regards,
