Exit Code Handling with PowerShell
The exit code of a PowerShell script is usually expected as the result of the execution of the script. However, the program powershell.exe returns the exit code of the execution of the powershell.exe itself - and this in most cases 0.
...
The example below shows how it works:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<job title="How to get the exit code from a powershell script"
name="PowerShellExitCode">
<script language="shell">
<![CDATA[
powershell.exe -noprofile -command "write-output test; exit 123 "
echo %errorlevel%
exit %errorlevel%
]]>
</script>
<run_time/>
</job>
|
...
The statement exit %errorlevel% passes the exit code to JobScheduler. If this statement is missing then JobScheduler will not know about the exit code and will assume that it is zero (0).
