I have multiple Win2016 servers running PS client. I would suspect your
issue may be related to permissions of Program Files where you are running
the ps1 script. It will want to create some sub-folders for data collection.

I use a C:\Utils folder with user modify permission to run my scripts
without any issues.

Hi,

I wanted to know if anyone is able to get xymonpsclient.exe to work on
window server 2016.

When I run the xymonclient.ps1 install it works, but once I run
xymonclient.ps1 start I get the following error:

start-service : Failed to start service 'XymonPSClient (XymonPSClient)'.
At C:\Program Files\xymon\xymonclient.ps1:3814 char:60

   ServiceCommandException

Any help would be great.

Thanks

Alex
