I found the issue to be with multiple vCenter server connections within Horizon 7 administrator portal settings. We had an issue with the vCenter connection previously and created a duplicate. Removed the duplicate entry and it works properly. Now my script runs perfectly. I can change the status of the Desktop Pools and add machines through a script nicely.
