you need the ONTAP PowerShell Toolkit. Try Install-Module -Name NetApp.ONTAP

And reinstalled again and it worked

Hi @quasi frigate I have tried the command you suggested but using Netapp.Ontap it seems to do nothing, if i use DataOnTap ( from an old version of the guide ) it seems to download but i cannot import the modules.

It’s not finding the Netapp docs powershell module.
Have you tried doing what it said

Import-module NetAppDocs

??

So you did not follow the installation guide.
Rtfm. They give different examples on how to install. Online and offline. I’ve done both and it listed the requirements

#

Read The “Fine” Manual

jolly crag So you did not follow the installation guide. Rtfm. They give different example...

To be honest I couldnt find an installation guide later than 2011 and RTFM means something different to me.

If you are allowed, it is on the support site. It is allowed by netapp and partners to download. If you are not either, then you should ask NetApp or a NetApp partner to get you the netappdocslite module and hte install guide.

#

and rtfm can be a little more vulgar. I use it too frequently so I try to make it a little nicer

#

From that long ago (2011), it may jut not work well anymore.
