Get-PvsDiskInfo : The specified vDisk does not exist.

[pmatula]

Hello,
I've a new pvs 7.13 server and imported the devices without a vdisk assignment.
When I start the script I get the message:

PS C:\scripts> .\Citrix-PVS77-Farm-Health-toHTML.ps1
Begin with Citrix Provisioning Services HealthCheck

Read some PVS Farm Parameters

Check PVS Target Devices

  • FullyQualifiedErrorId : Citrix.PVS.SnapIn.InvalidDiskLocator,Citrix.PVS.SnapIn.GetPvsDiskInfo

Is there any workaround/fix?

Thanks

Does it fail completely? Or continues? For some of machines (the ones with no vdisk assigned) in my infra, it also fails, but the report continues on.

[pmatula]

wow. fast response.

no the report doesn't continue. (But I have no device with a vdisk assigned - I have not even a vdisk)
But the report worked without devices.

So quick workaround would be adding "-ea silentlycontinue" with no quotes after every invoke of Get-PvsDiskInfo as another parameter. This may cause some problems in the script. I did not have an opportunity to test it on 7.13 I may need to deploy one on test environment.

[pmatula]

Thanks.
When you need a tester, send me an email 👍

Read the prerequisites in the powershell script... You have to register a DLL, the command you have to run is listed in the powershell scrip. Get Outlook for iOS<https://aka.ms/o0ukef>

@ryanchauvin I don't understand what you mean?

[ryanchauvin]

Run this in powershell first, just one time, then run the script from Sacha: set-alias installutil C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v4.0.30319\installutil.exe installutil "C:\Program Files\Citrix\Provisioning Services Console\Citrix.PVS.SnapIn.dll"

Well, I did this already. As I described the script works without devices.
I added "empty" devices (so no vDisk) and the script aborted. But I have the prerequisites already (otherwise the script wouldn't run in any situation)

i need help in modifying the script to individual sites instead of using vdisk store
