Describe the bug

When trying to run the above PowerCLI command we are receiving intermittent timeouts after100 seconds.

Does anyone know how to increase the timeout? We have a relatively large inventory of 5000 VMs which I think may be the cause.

e.g.

Exception calling "VirtualMachine_List" with "2" argument(s): "The request channel timed out while waiting for a reply after 00:01:39.9989887. Increase the timeout value passed to the call to Request or increase the SendTimeout value on the Binding. The time allotted to this operation may have been a portion of a longer timeout."

function Get-MachinesByVCenter ($MachineList,$VcId) {

[VMware.Hv.MachineId[]]$machines = $null $virtualMachine_helper = New-Object VMware.Hv.VirtualMachineService $vcMachines = $virtualMachine_helper.VirtualMachine_List($services,$vcId) $machineDict = @{} foreach ($vMachine in $vcMachines) { $machineDict.Add($vMachine.name,$vMachine.id) } foreach ($machineName in $machineList) { if ($machineDict.Contains($machineName)) { $machines += $machineDict.$machineName } } return $machines }

Reproduction steps

1. Add-HVDesktop -PoolName Project_Windows_10 -Machines VWMRXPRJ10DV007 -Vcenter acprdtewwvcs02.*.com -HvServer $hv
