I have the below script segment that looks into a specific folder called "csd" on the specific vCenter server.... Connect-VIServer ''myvcente01'' #-Alllinked $folderName = 'csd' $result = @() $folder = Get-View -ViewType Folder -Filter @{Name=$folderName} -Server ''myvcente01'' $vms = Get-view  -ViewType VirtualMachine -SearchRoot $folder.MoRef foreach ($vm in $vms) {     if($vm.config.hardware.NumCoresPerSocket -ne $null){         $cores = $vm.config.hardware.NumCoresPerSocket     }     else{         $cores = 1     }     $obj = new-object psobject     $obj | Add-Member -MemberType NoteProperty -Name ServerName -Value ($vm.Name)     $obj | Add-Member -MemberType NoteProperty -Name CPUs -Value ($vm.config.hardware.NumCPU)     $obj | Add-Member -MemberType NoteProperty -Name Sockets -Value ($vm.config.hardware.NumCPU/$cores)     $obj | Add-Member -MemberType NoteProperty -Name CPUPersocket -Value $cores     $obj | Add-Member -MemberType NoteProperty -Name RAMAssigned -Value ([math]::Round($vm.Config.Hardware.MemoryMB/1KB))     $obj | Add-Member -MemberType NoteProperty -Name OSProfile -Value $vm.Config.GuestFullName     $result += $obj } $result | Export-Csv -Path c:\temp\cputest_ddc_csd.txt -NoTypeInformation DisConnect-VIServer 'myvcente01' I am getting the below error... Get-View : Cannot convert 'System.Object[]' to the type 'VMware.Vim.ManagedObjectReference' required by parameter 'SearchRoot'. Specified method is not supported. At C:\Temp\Get-VM-CPU-Cores-OSProfile-vCenterAffinity.ddc-csd.ps1:6 char:55 + $vms = Get-view  -ViewType VirtualMachine -SearchRoot $folder.MoRef +                                                       ~~~~~~~~~~~~~     + CategoryInfo          : InvalidArgument: (:) [Get-View], ParameterBindingException     + FullyQualifiedErrorId : CannotConvertArgument,VMware.VimAutomation.ViCore.Cmdlets.Commands.DotNetInterop.GetVIView I confirmed the folder does not have duplicate names anywhere on 'myvcente01'. Withing that folder "csd" there a other subfolders with VM's. Not sure if that means anything though. I would like those VM's in subfolders included in the output.

I have the script below... $result = @() $vms = Get-view  -ViewType VirtualMachine foreach ($vm in $vms) {     if($vm.config.hardware.NumCoresPerSocket -ne $null){         $cores = $vm.config.hardware.NumCoresPerSocket     }     else{         $cores = 1     }     $obj = new-object psobject     $obj | Add-Member -MemberType NoteProperty -Name ServerName -Value ($vm.Name)     $obj | Add-Member -MemberType NoteProperty -Name CPUs -Value ($vm.config.hardware.NumCPU)     $obj | Add-Member -MemberType NoteProperty -Name Sockets -Value ($vm.config.hardware.NumCPU/$cores)     $obj | Add-Member -MemberType NoteProperty -Name CPUPersocket -Value $cores     $obj | Add-Member -MemberType NoteProperty -Name RAMAssigned -Value $VM.MemoryGB     $result += $obj } $result | Out-File c:\temp\cputest.txt It runs but Memory is not populating. I must calling the value/property wrong. Also, how can I format the output to CSV? Thanks

The math indicates a VM does not have a CPU? Thanks
