    I run this command to backup a database to a network path.
    Invoke-ASCmd -Server $ASServer -Query ($ASBackupQry.Replace('$(Database)', $Database))

    I know the path does not exist and will trigger the an error
    <return xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xml-analysis"><root xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xml-analysis:empty"><Exception xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xml-analysis:exception" /><Messages xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xml-analysis:exception"><Error ErrorCode="-1056833536" Description="File system error: The following error occurred during a file operation:  An unexpected network error occurred. . (networkpath.abf)." Source="Microsoft SQL Server 2016 Analysis Services" HelpFile="" /></Messages></root></return>

    I run this in a try/catch, but it does not trigger the catch.  $ErrorActionPreference is set to stop.  My work around is to send the output to a string object and then search for exception and trigger the catch manually. 

    Am I doing something wrong?
