PowerCLI Host Property MaxEVCMode is not present

[DavidPeyton]

Not sure if this is due to the fact that EVC mode on this cluster is not enabled but when we run Get-VMHost <VMHostName> | Get-Member there is not a 'MaxEVCMode' Property. DO I need to look somewhere else for this?

Thanks!

Hi David,

Have you found an answer to this question yet? I have the same issue, even when I have EVC enabled.

UPDATE: I figured it out. You need to specify " | Get-View" and not just "Get-VMHost", like so:

$vmHost = Get-VMHost "Host-Name-Here.example.com" | Get-View

$vmHost.Summary.CurrentEVCModeKey
$vmHost.Summary.MaxEVCModeKey

It also works for clusters:

$cluster = Get-Cluster "Cluster Name" | Get-View

$cluster.Summary.CurrentEVCModeKey
