Re: V2T migration - Host won't be migrated because NSXV is not installed on it

I think you will run into problems with the migration if you just accept those specific warnings. I imagine if it thinks NSX-V isn't installed it won't run the uninstall-V / install-T process correctly as part of the migration coordinator.

Which versions of NSX-V and NSX-T are you running/migrating to? The migration coordinator is limited to NSX-V versions 6.4.4, 6.4.5, 6.4.6, 6.4.8 and above. https://docs.vmware.com/en/VMware-NSX-T-Data-Center/3.1/migration/GUID-8C3E2019-D5A9-48F6-B9EC-A9E91B0A6649.html

You can use this as a basis if you like? It uses Posh-SSH and minimum PowerShell version 5.1.

There's also this script which could be modified to just export the info. They use Posh-SSH as well.
