Error while loading while connecting using NetApp.ONTAP module on Linux.

Does the module supports Linux?

PWSH: Connect-NaController mycontroller

Connect-NaController: Unable to load shared library 'kernel32.dll' or one of its dependencies. In order to help diagnose loading problems, consider setting the LD_DEBUG environment variable: libkernel32.dll: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory.

I also tried using another module called dataontp but it threw pssapin errors on my Linux machine every time I tried importing.

Import-Module: Could not load type 'System.Management.Automation.PSSnapIn' from assembly 'System.Management.Automation, Version=7.2.1.500, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35

Also, the “Na” commands are for 7 mode controllers. Look at the “Nc” commands when you get powershell working
