Hi Robin,

powernsx is only for NSX-V (for v-Sphere)

There is official module with "High API level" on PowerCLI (using Connect-nsxtserver and Get-NsxtService, you can look https://cloudmaniac.net/powercli-nsx-t-module/) or there is a unofficial module psNSXT ;-)

Closing as issue is not related to NSX-v
