Powershell on server core

Post by desmith »

I had been using powershell on server core with v5 for some basic reporting. Post update to v7 I get the prompt "New patch 7.0.0.3604 is available. Would you like to install it?" after Connect-VBOServer

Even without the path installed on a server with desktop experience, I don't get the prompt, but server core has the 7.0.0.3604 patch for the module installed, and nothing I've tried will get rid of that prompt.

If I say yes at the prompt I just get "Please close all running PowerShell sessions to proceed with the update", if I say no, everything appears to work OK, but this prevents me from using the cmdlets in a script.

I'm sure the answer will be "core isn't supported", but it looks like the only issue is something bugged in the version detection, and a lack of options to disable confirmation in the connect cmdlet.
