Netapp Docs connect error with cDOT

When trying to run NetappDocs against a cDOT array the script returns the below error. I'm able to SSH in via putty.

PS C:\Users\t15jr5p> Get-NtapClusterData -Name '10.72.66.82' -Credential (Get-Credential) -Verbose | Format-NtapClusterData -Verbose | Out-NtapDocument -WordFile 'c:\temp\nyl_ntapclus_lab01.Docx' -ExcelFile 'C:\temp\nyl_ntapclus_lab01.xlsx' -Verbose

For powershell to work in cdot, you need to create a security login access to ontapi.

Also, ensure your domain-tunnel is working in 8.3 if you are using domain authentication

Hi, I'm using version 4.1 with an cDOT 8.3.1 and the cmdlet "Get-NtapClusterData" does not exist.

(Get-NtapClusterData &colon; The term 'Get-NtapClusterData' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file,.....)

Is this some kind of addon? Where can I get it?

Thanks!

Hello!

You'll want to start a new topic for new questions in the future...it usually leads to much better visiblity and faster responses.

That being said, I beleive that cmdlet is a part of the NetAppDocs package, avaialable from the toolchest here.

Hope that helps.
