I have a pretty new version of PowerCLI (5.5 Rel 1) and vCenter is 5.5 as is ESXi.
I also verified Automation.Core is installed:
PowerCLI C:\Windows\system32> Get-PSSnapin VMware.VimAutomation.Core
Name : VMware.VimAutomation.Core
PSVersion : 2.0
Description : This Windows PowerShell snap-in contains Windows PowerShell cmdle
ts for managing vSphere.
but after connecting to vCenter, I get error trying to run:
PowerCLI C:\Windows\system32> $Results = ForEach ($DRSRule in $DRSRules)
>> {
>> "" | Select-Object-Property @{N="Cluster";E={(Get-View- Id $DRSRule.Clust
er.Id).Name}},
>> @{N="Name";E={$DRSRule.Name}},
>> @{N="Enabled";E={$DRSRule.Enabled}},
>> @{N="DRS Type";E={$DRSRule.KeepTogether}},
>> @{N="VMs";E={$VMIds=$DRSRule.VMIds -split ","
>> $VMs = ForEach ($VMId in $VMIds)
>> {
>> (Get-View -Id $VMId).Name
>> }
>> $VMs -join ","}}
>> }
>>
The term 'Select-Object-Property' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, fu
nction, script file, or operable program. Check the spelling of the name, or if
a path was included, verify that the path is correct and try again.

Is 'Select-Object-Property not installed? If not, where do I get it, please?
