PowerCLI 11.0.0 has been released and there are a ton of fantastic new additions. Over 20 new cmdlets have been added to help automate vCloud Director networking, virtual TPM settings, Host Profile configurations, and VMware Cloud on AWS networking. More than 10 cmdlets have been enhanced to add newly released features. Plus, a handful of updates to improve the overall quality and reliability.
There are also a handful of updates which are all due to community feedback! There has been an update to the output when using New-VM combined with the ‘Confirm’ parameter so that the output matches that of the created VM. An update to Get-View has been added to help resolve a Vim error being received when the ‘Property’ parameter was specified. Another fix was when Get-VM would result in an error of ‘Value cannot be null’. The last big issue, there has been an update to the way Get-NetworkAdapter outputs a NSX-T logical network backed portgroup.
