Investigating Get-NcNetInterface

Trying to see if it is possible in the Data ONTAP PowerShell Toolkit 3.0.0.90 to do the equivalent of the Clustered ONTAP CLI command:

::> network interface revert *

I compiled the following notes below. The closest I got to replicating the above was the below, and unfortunately this does not work:

$lifs = Get-NcNetInterface

foreach ($lif in $lifs){ $q = Get-NcNetInterface -template; $q.InterfaceName = $lif.InterfaceName; $a = Get-NcNetInterface -template; $a.CurrentNode = $lif.HomeNode; $a.CurrentPort = $lif.HomePort; Update-NcNetInterface -Query $q -Attributes $a }

I’m a massive fan of the Data ONTAP PowerShell Toolkit, but looks like it is missing a command like the following which would be super useful (later versions will have something like this for sure):

Revert-NcNetInterface

And Finally: An Output

Image: The closest I got to replicating “net int revert *” - report success only where the LIF was already in the right place!

Even more finally: after updating to the very latest (at the time of writing) Data ONTAP PowerShell Toolkit - 3.0.1.101 - my attempt at replicating “net int revert *” in PowerShell still does not work…
