Get-vsancomponent object reference not set to an instance of an object

[Zsoldier]

Anyone running into issues w/ this cmdlet?  Running the below syntax and I keep getting errors.

get-vsancomponent -vsanobject (get-vsanobject -vm nakawindows -type:vdisk)

Get-VsanComponent Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

It doesn't seem to matter any object produced by get-vsanobject, cluster/vm, or otherwise returns this error.

Powershell version: 7.1.2

VMware.PowerCLI 12.2.0.17538434

Nope, working perfectly for me.



Which OS are you running this in?

[Zsoldier]

MacOS.  Guess I'll have to find a windows system to see if I have problems there.

Powershell core for you too right?

[Zsoldier]

Hmm, get same response on a windows machine w/ latest powershell core and vmware.powercli module.

@LucD - What version is your target environment?

[LucD]

VCSA 7.0 U1d (build 17491160)
VSAN 7.0 U1

[LucD]

Same response?
You mean same error or same as me?

[Zsoldier]

Same error on my setup.  Target is 6.7U3.  Wonder if it's a target version problem now... <sigh>

I would in any case suggest opening an SR

Hi Guys,

Same issue here, Get-VsanObject working fine but Get-VsanComponent is giving that error. It seems to happen only when the vSAN Cluster is not healthy or some Components have reduced availability.

Any news from anyone to overcome this situation?.

Thanks.
