Ok... it is a very old release of NSX...

other cmdlet work ?

MartinEtcheverry commented 5 years ago

well get-nsxservice is working, sorry i was just starting with powernsx. so i don't know much about the commands.

There is something on the Edge don't like by the API...

You don't have a special configuration ?

Do you have multiple Edge ?

MartinEtcheverry commented 5 years ago

Hi, thank you for the reply! as i know the nsx doesen't have any special config. the edges are pretty simple configs , only ha in some , but nothing more . i will create a new "clean" vm to discard the running environment. you have any sugestion about the versions of powershell / powercli , to better support powernsx?

alagoutte commented 5 years ago
