Thanks @utildayael for pointing me in the right direction.
I ended up retro fitting a normal powershell script into Solarwinds.
I'm attaching the template in case this would be worthy of publishing up to the user community here. This works exactly as designed.
I kept a few portions of the original script, which had a 'warning' threshold, so someone could further modify the script if they wish. One key piece of information is for my use case, where I needed the credentials to pass through completely, that you cannot use cmdlets that do not have a -Credential switch. An example would be Get-Service, which doesn't have a -Credential switch.
Thanks for the help! =)
