Re: VIObject error message

Not 100% sure that I understood what you were trying to do, but I suspect it was to get the path to the standalone ESXi.

Try it like this

####################
write-host"Standalone hosts:"-foregroundcolorgreen
#TM hosts not in cluster
$hostlist=Get-VMHost|where{$_.ExtensionData.Parent.Type-ne"ClusterComputeResource"}
foreach ($host1in$hostlist) {
  #get folder
  $path=@($host1.Name)
  $parent=Get-View$host1.ExtensionData.Parent
  While ($parent.parent){ 
    $parent=Get-View$parent.parent
    if("Datacenters","host"-notcontains$parent.Name){
      $path+=$parent.Name
    }
  }
  [array]::Reverse($path)
  $path= [string]::Join('/',$path)
  write-host"$path"


   $out=get-vmhost$host1|get-vmhosthba|get-scsilun|get-scsilunpath|
  Select-ExpandPropertySanID-unique-ErrorAction"SilentlyContinue"


  write-host"$out"
  write-host" "
}
