Get-NcCommands ONTAP Data Collector: Part 2 of 2 (Collect-NcDataSVM.ps1)

Continuing from the previous post ... a few Get-NcCommands erred with “This cmdlet must be directed to a data vserver”. The following (simpler) script handles those. My learned list of this Get-NcCommands - that need to be directed to a data vserver - from running against an ONTAP 8.3.2 SIM was:

Get-NcCifsHomeDirectorySearchPath,Get-NcCifsOption,Get-NcCifsSecurity,Get-NcFcpNodeName,Get-NcFileInodeInfo,Get-NcIscsiNodeName,Get-NcIscsiTargetAlias,Get-NcNameServiceUnixGroupFileOnly,Get-NcNameServiceUnixUserFileOnly,Get-NcNfsExport,Get-NcNfsSecurityFlavor,Get-NcSnapshotRestoreStatus,Get-NcVolCloneSplit,Get-NcVolFlexgroupAggrLayout,Get-NcVolLimit,Get-NcVolRoot
