I fixed it to Get-Cluster -Name $cluster | Get-VM | % { (Get-View $_.ID).UpgradeTools_Task($installerArgs) } But the actual installation process was not initiated :( While I was logged in to the VM which should be upgraded a message dialog popped up telling me something about MSI comand line paramters... Regards, daniel Hi Hal,

this is not working for me. I fixed it to

Get-Cluster -Name $cluster | Get-VM | % { (Get-View $_.ID).UpgradeTools_Task($installerArgs) }

But the actual installation process was not initiated :(
While I was logged in to the VM which should be upgraded a message dialog popped up telling me something about MSI comand line paramters…

Regards,

daniel
