ONTAP PowerShell commands run in debug mode.

[DavidTatFMG]

All of my ONTAP PowerShell commands are, by default, running in debug mode. The commands all work, they are just prefaced with debug trace information. I'm running DataONTAP 9.8.0 & NetApp.ONTAP 9.13.1.2306. Sample output follows:

connect-nccontroller -Name johnnacm01 -Credential $(Get-Credential)

what about the following variable? default is "SilentlyContinue"

PS C:\temp> $DebugPreference
SilentlyContinue
PS C:\temp>

[DavidTatFMG]

Thanks for the reply, Christian...

PS C:\PowerShell> $DebugPreference
SilentlyContinue

[Christian_Ott]

did that solve your problem? was that the right approach? If not, than I can't help you any further 😞

Hi Christian, unfortunately it did not. The odd thing is if I run the same ONTAP cmdlets from Powershell ISE they work fine, it's only when I run them from a Powershell window they run in debug mode.

Hi David,

Have you tried turning off debug logging?

Set-NaToolkitConfiguration -LogLevel OFF

PARAMETERS
    -LogLevel <String>
        The log level.  Possible values: DEBUG, ERROR, WARN, OFF.

Hope that helps

That did it, Matt! Thank you.
