Hello All,
I'm seeing a strange issue when trying to add a new-disk to a VM through powershell
I use the following commands:
Add-PSSnapin VMware.VimAutomation.Core
connect-viserver -server $MyVC
$server='MyServer'
$vm=get-vm $server
$NewDisk= New-HardDisk -VM $VM -CapacityGB $DiskSize -StorageFormat $StorageFormat
When I execute it, the disk gets added but the following is thrown into the output:
New-HardDisk : 24/06/2013 11:04:22 | New-HardDisk | An item with the same key has already been added. |
At line:1 char:11
+ $NewDisk= New-HardDisk -VM $VM -CapacityGB $DiskSize -StorageFormat $StorageForm ...
+ | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | |
+ CategoryInfo | : NotSpecified: (:) [New-HardDisk], ViError | |
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : Client20_VirtualDeviceServiceImpl_NewVirtualHardDisk_ReconfigError,VMware.VimAutomation. |
ViCore.Cmdlets.Commands.VirtualDevice.NewHardDisk
When I rerun the command in the same powershell session then it gets executed without error.
Has anyone seen this behavior before?
Could this be a bug?
I've been looking for this error but this seems to be something very generic..
Many thanks in advance!
Filip
