Description
When i try running xSqlServerSetup with the feature RS_SHPWFE (Reporting
Services Add-in for SharePoint Products) the dsc-configuration throws "Set-Tar
getResouce failed" even though the feature actually gets installed.
It looks like the Test-TargetResource can't handle this feature and will always consider it not installed even though it actually is.
The result of this is that the Set-TargetResource always triggers and always fails, while the setup is actually OK.
