Below is the WFA command code we corrected, changed below line in the code

Get-WFALogger -Info -message $("Found registry configuration for $SourceVFilerName: $pfiler")

Get-WFALogger -Info -message $("Found registry configuration for $($SourceVFilerName): $pfiler")

After which getting execution failed at the vfiler DR resync step as before but without any error , recently we changed the pstk version, upgraded powershell etc for supporting ontap 8.2.5 version.
