If you encounter a problem in PowerCLI that you cannot resolve, you can open a support request for VMware.

Generate and download a PowerCLI support bundle in the form of a ZIP file and attach it to your VMware support request.

Procedure

  1. Create a variable with the script that produced the error. 
    $errorcode = {
    $vm = Get-VM vCLS*
    Start-VM $vm
}
  2. Generate and download the support bundle by running the Get-ErrorReport cmdlet. 
    Get-ErrorReport -ProblemScript $errorcode -Destination .\Downloads -ProblemDescription "VM would not power on"

    Optional: Тo limit the size of your support bundle, include the MaxDataDepth parameter which specifies object data depth for the report. For example, to limit object data depth to one level, add -MaxDataDepth 1 to the above example.

Results

The ZIP file that contains environmental information about the error is saved at the specified destination.
