Yes, we are trying to install PowerPath via remote vCLI, and yes it is still supported. Yet, it is NOT supported via the old method of retaining the package / zip file on a remote server ( Windows ) in this case.
VMware stated that it is now necessary to have zip package, vib files local to either a datastore the host can seee or local file system of the vSphere host.
Hi! If you are trying to install PowerPath via remote vCLI, that is still supported. Check the PowerPath/VE 5.7 Install and Admin guide on Powerlink. The information starts on page 59.

Make sense?
