Snap-in installed but cmdlets not visible

Sorry, I wasn't clear.

 

 

The installation and registration of the snap-in works. As does my script (it removes nodes from a pool during code deployment), however the script only works the first time. Here's what happens

 

 

I open the myscript.ps1 in powershell ISE and run it. It h runs through the code block in my first post:

 

 

 if ( (Get-PSSnapin | Where-Object { $_.Name -eq "iControlSnapIn"}) -eq $null ) { Add-PSSnapIn iControlSnapIn } $success = Initialize-F5.iControl -HostName $bigip -Username $user -Password $pass 

 

 

and, doesn't find the snap in so it runs the Add-PSSnapIn command returns success and goes on to execute the remainder of the script.

 

 

If I then run this command, I see that the snap-in is present in my current runtime

 

 PS C:\Windows\system32> Get-PSSnapin | Where-Object { $_.Name -eq "iControlSnapIn"} Name : iControlSnapIn PSVersion : 2.0 Description : iControl Snap-in for F5 Device Management 

 

 

However calling an F5 specific cmdlet after that doesn't work after that. Example:

 

 

 PS C:\Windows\system32> Get-Command -Module iControlSnapin Initialize-F5.iControl Get-Command : The term 'Initialize-F5.iControl' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program. Check the spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is correct and try again. At line:1 char:12 + Get-Command <<<< -Module iControlSnapin Initialize-F5.iControl + CategoryInfo : ObjectNotFound: (Initialize-F5.iControl:String) [Get-Command], CommandNotFoundException + FullyQualifiedErrorId : CommandNotFoundException,Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.GetCommandCommand 

 

Subsequent runs of my script also fail after this because of it's dependacy on F5 cmdlets
