While this is a true statement, it appears the issue resides with PowerCLI Get-VMHostHardware, not actually with vDoc. @arielsanchezmora should close this :)

I've filed an Aha! powercli request for the first cmdlet - Kyle did confirm it's not yet ported. Give it an upvote and it will get more priority!
