iControl Powershell

I am working in on several automation tasks for the windows side of vmware and am having some issue with iControl Powershell. I have installed the snapins, all is grand it the world, initialize-icontrol, peach it works, and then start issuing get-'commands' and PS is kicking back "you must first successfully call initialize-icontrol, which I have done again and again. I am using PS 1.0 from Microsoft and the latest PS Snap-in's installer from here.

 

 

Any one want to give me some pointers??

 

 

Thanks!

    Ok, I am fixed. I should have looked deeper before I posted. It's initialize-f5.icontrol....

    Sorry about the confusion. The PowerShell project is in a state of flux. I've just updated the scripts to make use of the Cmdlet so there should be no more reflection and powershell profile dependencies to get things working.

     

     

    All the Cmdlets are now namespace prefixed with "F5." before the nouns.
