Stack overflow Powercli 5.1 Release 2 and PowerCLI VUM 5.0

All,

  I am trying to use Powercli Update manager 5.0 release, but when I run Get-Baseline I get a stack overflow and it closed out my window.

Do I have to run the older version of powercli?

That's what I was afraid of.  There isn't any way to run 2 versions of powercli on same machine is there?

You can not install two versions of PowerCLI on the same machine. What you can do however, is to use VMware ThinApp or Microsoft App-V to create virtualized PowerCLI installations of different versions. Then you can run these on your machine.
