This issue has been solved. See solution.

Hi there,

Got a EV installed on a Windows 2003 32-bit server and up-and-running.

I am trying to run the Windows Powershell command from the Guide to set the vault store in backup modus.

The command returns the following error message:

" no windows powershell snap-ins are available for version 1"

Anyone has an idea what I am doing wrong or am forgetting?

Btw: the command I run is (OCW Vault Store and OWWNLEV001, are my vaultstore name and servername):

powershell -psconsolefile "D:\Program Files\Enterprise Vault\EVShell.psc1" -command "& {set-vaultstorebackupmode –name ‘OCW Vault Store' -evservername OWWNLEV001 -evobjecttypevaultstoregroup}"

I think this is what you need.

"No Windows PowerShell Snap-ins are available for version 1" error received when running the pre-backup/post-backup scripts after upgrading or installing Enterprise Vault (EV) 8.0
Details:
Exact error message:

EV installed on Windows Server 2008 x64 or Windows Server 2003 x64:
 

WARNING: The following errors occurred when loading console C:\Program Files (x86)\Enterprise Vault\EVShell.psc1:
Cannot load Windows PowerShell snap-in
Symantec.EnterpriseVault.PowerShell.Snapin because of the following error:
No Windows PowerShell Snap-ins are available for version 1.
EV installed on Windows Server 2003 x86:
 
WARNING: The following errors occurred when loading console C:\Program Files\Enterprise Vault\EVShell.psc1:
Cannot load Windows PowerShell snap-in
Symantec.EnterpriseVault.PowerShell.Snapin because of the following error:
No Windows PowerShell Snap-ins are available for version 1.
Resolution:
The Enterprise Vault Management Shell must be launched from Start > Programs > Enterprise Vault > Enterprise Vault Management Shell in order to create the required registry entries before running any Enterprise Vault cmdlets directly from the Windows PowerShell or the pre-backup/post-backup scripts.  You must be logged on with the Vault Service Account or an account with permissions to create registry entries.  

To verify the registry entries were created, open Windows Registry Editor (regedit) and locate the following:

x86 Server:
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\PowerShell\1\PowerShellSnapIns\Symantec.EnterpriseVault.PowerShell.Snapin

x64 Server:
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\PowerShell\1\PowerShellSnapIns\Symantec.EnterpriseVault.PowerShell.Snapin
