The issue had to do with an entry in the mssqlrbs_resources.rbs_internal_blob_stores table not being created for some very strange reason. Oddly enough, the log file did not report anything related to this omission. I was able to get it working by uninstalling RBS, removing the RBS Provider File group from SQL, deleting the mssqlrbs tables, and rebuilding the RBSFilestreamProvider in the PRIMARY filegroup. I then reinstalled RBS and all is well. Cheers! DMM Nevermind!

Everything described above worked perfectly, in that the RBS log file reports a successful installation and the additional tables were added to the content database in SQL Server. However, the PowerShell script only seemingly works. I have narrowed it down to the following call: $rbss.GetProviderNames() This call returns nothing, which I assume means that the RBS Filestream Provider was not correctly configured. Scanning the RBS log, I can't find any reported errors or failures anywhere. Do you think you might know how/when/why the array driving the GetProviderNames() method is populated? MSDN has the entire SPRemoteBlobStorageSettings object marked as "Internal Use Only." so no help can be found there. Any information you can provide would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
