Int16 against

[pendurkov]

I have environment with devices with over 300 000 ids and when i add new machine i got that.

PS C:\Windows\system32> Set-NetboxVirtualMachine -Primary_IP4 $NBip.id -Id $vm.id
Set-NetboxVirtualMachine : Cannot process argument transformation on parameter 'Primary_IP4'. Cannot convert value
"334039" to type "System.UInt16". Error: "Value was either too large or too small for a UInt16."

Could you please, advice what i am missing

I apologize. In my early development and learning, this was a limitation I unintentionally added long ago by setting the ID parameter type to uint16. You can manually edit the Netbox.psm1 file and update the Set-NetboxVirtualMachine function $Id parameter type to [int64] to workaround this for now until I can push out a new release. Between other work and life commitments I have not been able to focus on this in some time.

Moved to issue #49

Thanks for reply and all work, Ben. I tried to change but probably it`s a big deeper. When i run the standard function New-NBVirtualMachine - VM is created into Netbox, eth0 is created, IP is created too, but unable to assign the IP to eth0 . I even tried to change all UInt16 to int64 into psm1 but still got that.

do you have to reimport module with force ? import-module ... -force

[pendurkov]

HI Alex, I usually edit the psm1, then save and close all powershell windows and do import-module netboxps etc. Now i tried with -force parameter but still no luck.
