Get-hnsnetwork missing in agent v2.3.[12] for Windows

Rancher
1

When I try to add a windows worker node to a cluster (via the rancher UI, which gives a powershell command to run), the powershell command fails with the message

get-containernetwork : The term ‘get-containernetwork’ is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script, file, or operable program

Starting an interactive powershell in the container, I can see that the root cause is that none of the hostnetworkingservice powershell commands are present, specifically get-hnsnetwork.

On the docker host, these commands are available and get-hsnnetwork yields results.

I’m running Windows Server 2019, version 1809 Build 17763.805 with Docker EE.

I’m basically following the instructions out of the box, although I admit that I’m a beginner with Rancher. Am I missing something, or this an issue?

I know this is a few months late, but in case anyone else comes across this:

If you’re running this in an Amazon AWS Windows server, make sure you use Powershell and not Powershell for AWS. Powershell for AWS does not have the required cmdlets.
