Solved: Re: Bug ?

Just came across something... wasn't sure if it was a Toolkit issue or PowerShell issue....

Please see below the output... trying to filter licenses and can't seem to do it properly...

Licenses masked to prevent misuse...

MS PowerShell 2.0

DataONTAP Toolkit v1.6

Try this instead:

Get-NaLicense | where { $_.Licensed }

and

Get-NaLicense | where { !$_.Licensed }

Also, this works:

Get-NaLicense | where { $_.Licensed -eq $true }

and

Get-NaLicense | where { !$_.Licensed -eq $false }

You are comparing a boolean value to a string. In PoSH, any non-blank string more or less equates to "true". To get your statement to work with strings, you'd do a where { $_.Licensed -eq "" } to get false.

Thanks... this works...

My mistake was treating it as a string...
