Hi All,

Following this kb article (1030265), I was able to set the value using the below command:

PowerCLI> $myesxcli.system.settings.kernel.set("iovDisableIR","TRUE"), However when I try to list the properties getting the below error.

PowerCLI C:\> $myesxcli.system.settings.kernel.list("iovDisableIR")

Message: A specified parameter was not correct: argument[0];

There are two parameter, the first one is a Boolean named 'delta'.
Its purpose "Only display options whose values differ from their default".

Try like this

$esxcli.system.settings.kernel.list($false,'iovDisableIR')
