using -template switch with get-nc commands

[stephen2]

Has anyone used the -template switch with the nc-get commands?

I am trying to use get-ncvserver -template to retrieve only cluster and data vservers, not node vservers. I tried using the exact syntax from the posh documentation as follows:

  $v = Get-NcVserver -Template

  $v.State = "running"

  $v.VserverType = "cluster"

  Get-NcVserver -Query $v

  Get-WFALogger -Info -message $("Vservers : "+$v)

However, the only thing returned is:

Vservers : DataONTAP.C.Types.Vserver.VserverInfo

I suspect this might be a usage problem.

Found the answer - you don't need to use -template.

Just test the result  $vserver.vservertype  - it will return admin, data, node
