Splunk PowerShell Modula Input always returns fallback result

[tnicklau]

Hello Community,

I have setup a PowerShell modular input; executing a script every 5 minutes.

Running the script on the splunk (enterprise) server in PS ISE - I get the following output:
host :
Server_IP :
Page_Return_Code : 200
Page_Return_Message : OK
Page_Execution_Time : 1800
Page_Login_Result : Good
source : PowerShell/Connectivity

I can assume, the script itself is working fine.

Calling the same from splunk, I get:
host=""
Server_IP=""
Page_Return_Code="-1"
Page_Return_Message="DOWN"
Page_Execution_Time="2222"
Page_Login_Result="Bad"
source="PowerShell/Connectivity"

Question 1)
Executing the script via splunk modular input, why do I get the opposite result? Do I need to tell the input someplace, to execute the script always on the splunk server?

Question 2)
How to I get splunk to automatically separate the 'Event' into fields?

Snippets from the PS script (server and IP values have been omitted):

Definition of the Splunk return object

$SplunkObject = [PSCustomObject]@{
host = '
Server_IP = ''
Page_Return_Code = ''
Page_Return_Message = ''
Page_Execution_Time = ''
Page_Login_Result = ''
source = "PowerShell/Connectivity"
}
.....

Return values to Splunk Event Adapter

Write-output $SplunkObject
