Trying to connect to Flash Array throws error

[noaboa97]

Hello

I tried to connect to PureStorage Flash Array with PoweShellSDK2 and immediately get the error:

Connect-Pfa2Array : Could not load file or assembly 'System.ComponentModel.Annotations, Version=4.2.0.0,
Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=someToken' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file
specified.
At line:1 char:1

    + CategoryInfo          : NotSpecified: (:) [Connect-Pfa2Array], FileNotFoundException
    + FullyQualifiedErrorId : System.IO.FileNotFoundException,PureStorage.Rest.PowerShell.ConnectArrayCmdletx

I installed .Net 4.8 as well as .Net Core 2.1 as mentioned in the release notes. But that didn't help.

Does anyone know why this error shows up and how I can resolve it?

So it seems this issue only appears in the newest version for me.

Installing the last version solved the issue for me.

uninstall-module PureStoragePowerShellSDK2 -force
install-module PureStoragePowerShellSDK2 -force -MaximumVersion 2.33.187
