I use PowerCLI in the PowerShell ISE. PowerShell Version 4. PowerCLI Version 5.5 R1.
I noticed that I am missing some PowerCLI commands in the ISE, but not when I directly open up the vSphere PowerCLI.
Commands I am missing: Get-PowerCLIHelp, Get-VICommand, Get-PowerCLICommunity.
This is weird, as when I open ISE, I immediately run the following command. Add-PSSnapin vmware.vimautomation.core
I do have use of PowerCLI Commands, but I am missing a few of them in ISE.
What is it that I need to do in order to run all of the PowerCLI commands?
I would like to work with this in the PowerShell ISE as I switch between PowerShell and PowerCLI.
Thanks,
These are just functions defined in the initialisation script.
No pssnapin nor module I'm afraid.

These are in fact functions that are defined in the PowerCLI initialisation script (%programfiles%\VMware\Infrastructure\vSphere PowerCLI\Scripts\Initialize-PowerCLIEnvironment.ps1 or %programfiles(x86)%\VMware\Infrastructure\vSphere PowerCLI\Scripts\Initialize-PowerCLIEnvironment.ps1 ).
If you don't want to run the script, you could add those function definitions to your profile script

Is there a module, or a snapin that I could add to it ? Rather than adding each function?
