The following VMware blog does not correlate with the manual: Saying Farewell to Snapins! - VMware PowerCLI Blog - VMware Blogs but unfortunately, running >Get-Module –ListAvailable VM* returns nothing. The latest release notes 7.0.3 seem to indicate that the plugin\module names have changed as well. And so I would expect the API to follow the 7.0.3 numbering but it is at 7.0.2
The online manual states that there is an InitViewCmdlets.ps1 in the C:\Program Files\VMware\VMware View\Server\extras folder but all I find is:
Directory: C:\Program Files\VMware\VMware View\Server\extras\PowerShell Mode LastWriteTime Length Name ---- ------------- ------ ---- -a--- 11/27/2016 7:55 PM 12581 add-snapin.ps1 -a--- 11/27/2016 7:55 PM 1146 uninstall-snapin.ps1
Running add-snapin.ps1 results in the following error:
PS C:\Program Files\VMware\VMware View> C:\Program Files\VMware\VMware View\Server\extras\PowerShell\add-snapin.ps1 Loading VMware View PowerCLI add-PSSnapin : No snap-ins have been registered for Windows PowerShell version 4.
