Hi,

PowerCLI - Are there cmdlets to browse datastore for files/directories and creating them?

If yes, can you please let me know.

I took a peek at cmdlet reference, but didnt find any...

You can use the Datastore provider.

It's documented in the vSphere PowerCLI Administration Guide that was installed with PowerCLI.

There is more up-to-date doc available in the vSphere 5 Documentation Center, see the about_vimdatastore entry

Or you can just do
