Network - IO Devices against vSAN HCL

[lElOUCHE_79]

I have this script
https://communities.vmware.com/t5/VMware-PowerCLI-Discussions/Get-HBAs-amp-NIC-details-along-with-cl...

that retreive informations for NICs, I'm asking if we can add a check based on the vSAN HCL provided by vmware on this link https://partnerweb.vmware.com/service/vsan/all.json

Place a Write-Host inside the Catch block

Catch {
  Write-Host $global:esxcli
  Write-Host $global:vmhbald
}

[lElOUCHE_79]

       # Get driver vib package version

        Try{

        $driverVib = $global:esxcli.software.vib.get.Invoke(@{vibname = "net-"+$vmnicDetail.DriverInfo.Driver})

        }Catch{

            Write-Host $global:esxcli

        $driverVib = $global:esxcli.software.vib.get.Invoke(@{vibname = $vmnicDetail.DriverInfo.Driver})

        }

        $Info.VibVersion = $driverVib.Version

    }

    } elseif ($device.DeviceClass -eq "MassStorageController" -or $device.DeviceClass -eq "SerialBusController"){

    # Identify HBA (FC or Local Storage) with PCI slot Id

    # Todo: Sometimes this call fails with: Get-VMHostHba  Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

    $global:vmhbaId = $device.VMHost | Get-VMHostHba -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue | Where-Object { $_.PCI -like '*'+$device.Id}

    $Info.Device = $global:vmhbaId.Device

    $Info.Driver = $global:vmhbaId.Driver

    # Get driver vib package version

    Try{

        $driverVib = $global:esxcli.software.vib.get.Invoke(@{vibname = "scsi-"+$global:vmhbaId.Driver})

    }Catch{

        Write-Host $global:vmhbald

        $driverVib = $global:esxcli.software.vib.get.Invoke(@{vibname = $global:vmhbaId.Driver})

    }

    $Info.VibVersion = $driverVib.Version

    }

Same issue, even I added the below in the 2 catch block

  Write-Host $global:esxcli
  Write-Host $global:vmhbald

[LucD]

So there is no output from either of these Write-Host lines?
To make sure add some extra characters

  Write-Host "|$($global:esxcli)|"
  Write-Host "|$($global:vmhbald)|"

[lElOUCHE_79]

No output

I added a debug option on the top of the script and I got error messagerelated to this line

$global:vmhbaId = $device.VMHost | Get-VMHostHba -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue | Where-Object { $_.PCI -like '*'+$device.Id}

I also added the below  in the catch block and same error

  Write-Host "|$($global:esxcli)|"
  Write-Host "|$($global:vmhbald)|"

[LucD]

But you should see those 2 vertical bars on the console

[lElOUCHE_79]

trust me always some rror message

        # Get driver vib package version

        Try{

        $driverVib = $global:esxcli.software.vib.get.Invoke(@{vibname = "net-"+$vmnicDetail.DriverInfo.Driver})

        }Catch{

            Write-Host "|$($global:esxcli)|"

            Write-Host "|$($global:vmhbald)|"

        $driverVib = $global:esxcli.software.vib.get.Invoke(@{vibname = $vmnicDetail.DriverInfo.Driver})

        }

        $Info.VibVersion = $driverVib.Version

    }

    } elseif ($device.DeviceClass -eq "MassStorageController" -or $device.DeviceClass -eq "SerialBusController"){

    # Identify HBA (FC or Local Storage) with PCI slot Id

    # Todo: Sometimes this call fails with: Get-VMHostHba  Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

    $global:vmhbaId = $device.VMHost | Get-VMHostHba -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue | Where-Object { $_.PCI -like '*'+$device.Id}

    $Info.Device = $global:vmhbaId.Device

    $Info.Driver = $global:vmhbaId.Driver

    # Get driver vib package version

    Try{

        $driverVib = $global:esxcli.software.vib.get.Invoke(@{vibname = "scsi-"+$global:vmhbaId.Driver})

    }Catch{

        Write-Host "|$($global:esxcli)|"

        Write-Host "|$($global:vmhbald)|"

        $driverVib = $global:esxcli.software.vib.get.Invoke(@{vibname = $global:vmhbaId.Driver})

    }

    $Info.VibVersion = $driverVib.Version

    }

$Info.Supported = $DeviceFound

$AllInfo += $Info

@LucD 

did you get any chance to find what's wrong?

[LucD]

No , I can't replicate what you are seeing.
