Next, in Powershell (assuming you have already set your execution policy):

If your SQL Server is on same machine as BizTalk this should work:

<pre>Add-PSSnapIn -Name BiztalkFactory.PowerShell.Extensions

#Verify it works by listing the BizTalk Applications 
cd "Biztalk:\Applications\"
Get-ChildItem | ft -auto 
</pre>

If you SQL Server is on a different machine than the BizTalk server, then add the New-PSDrive statement as below (StackOverflow)

<pre>
Add-PSSnapIn -Name BiztalkFactory.PowerShell.Extensions
New-PSDrive -Name BizTalk -Root BizTalk:\ -PsProvider BizTalk -Instance MySqlServer -Database BizTalkMgmtDb

#Verify it works by listing the BizTalk Applications 
cd "Biztalk:\Applications\"
Get-ChildItem | ft -auto 
</pre>
