vShield Edge Version Discovery with PowerCLI
When upgrading vShield Manager, your vShield Edge devices will not be upgraded until you restart them. If you are in a situation where you need to do manual scheduled upgrades, this script will help you keep track of all the old versions running in your environment.
Note: This is a vSphere PowerCLI script should work with both vCloud Director or regular vShield installs.
