      Having installed Powershell 6.0 Core on our linux agents, there is no longer a program called "powershell". It is called "pwsh", and as such anything calling "powershell" will fail.

      Example:

      Fails:

      sh('powershell -version')

      Works:

      sh('pwsh -version')

      A workaround is to make a symbolic link between pwsh -> powershell.

      ln -s /usr/bin/pwsh /usr/bin/powershell
