The cmdlets are registered with SharePoint on all servers when CopyMove is installed. Hereafter, they are immediately available for use within the SharePoint 2016 Management Shell. PowerShell scripts that are not executed from the Management Shell must first add the PowerShell Snapin Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell. The following PowerShell snippet loads it if necessary.

Important Note: The process account running a cmdlet must have full access to the SharePoint Content Database(s) that the cmdlet needs to retrieve data from or write data to. Read access is not enough as auditing, if enabled, will require the cmdlet to write to the content database(s).
