Hey there,
what i try and what i do..
I have a script which will configure some Settings of my ESXi Hosts from the vCenter view and also will create local ESXi User... for this task i connect to the ESXi Host directly..
Soo..what i do ..
----
1. Connect to my vcenter...
2. Start my script...
3. All Setting will be aplied to the first esxi host in the list...
4. Connect to esxi
Connect-VIServer $esx_Host.Name -User $rootpwd.User -Password $rootpwd.Password -wa 0
create a user...
Disconnect-VIServer -Server $esx_Host.Name -Confirm:$false
5. The loop starts again.. and..
Get-VMHost : 29.06.2018 15:30:31 Get-VMHost You are not currently connected to any servers. Please connect first using a Connect cmdlet.
----
I try this on the cli ...
Connect-VIServer <vcenter> (OK)
Connect-VIServer <esxi host> (OK>
Disconnect-VIServer -Server <esxi Host> (Ok)
Get-VMHost
Get-VMHost : 29.06.2018 15:30:31 Get-VMHost You are not currently connected to any servers. Please connect first using a Connect cmdlet.

Get-VMHost -Server <vcenter> (works)

---- --------------- ---------- ------ ----------- ----------- ------------- ------------- -------
So the connection to the vcenter is still there.. is it possible to recover this connection as default connection?

What is the DefaultVIServerMode in your PowerCLI COnfiguration?
Do a Get-PowerCLIConfiguration, it should say Multiple, if not, change it with Set-PowerCLIConfiguration
