Hello Kyle,
I read your blog https://blogs.vmware.com/PowerCLI/2018/10/new-release-powercli-11-0-0.html, where I wanted to post this first, but for some reasons the blogs Webserver throughout ‘Access Denied
You don't have permission to access "http://blogs.vmware.com/PowerCLI/wp-comments-post.php" on this server.” to post.’
Therefore I am contacting you this way,- sorry for that, however I hope you can help me.

I am trying to get “PowerCLI 11” working on CentOS 7.6.1810.
I tried the following:
1a)Installation of “dotNet 2.2” (all operations as root)

rpm -Uvh https://packages.microsoft.com/config/rhel/7/packages-microsoft-prod.rpm
yum install aspnetcore-runtime-2.2

1b) I also tried the same with “dotNet 2.0”

wget https://download.microsoft.com/download/3/a/3/3a3bda26-560d-4d8e-922e-6f6bc4553a84/dotnet-runtime-2.0.9-linux-x64.tar.gz
mkdir /opt/microsoft/dotNet
tar xvfz ../downloads/dotnet-runtime-2.0.9-linux-x64.tar.gz
mv * /opt/microsoft/dotNet
  1. Installation of Powershell 6.1.0
yum install libunwind libcurl openssl-libs libicu
curl -L -o /tmp/powershell.tar.gz https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell/releases/download/v6.1.0/powershell-6.1.0-linux-x64.tar.gz
mkdir -p /opt/microsoft/powershell/6.1.0
tar zxf /tmp/powershell.tar.gz -C /opt/microsoft/powershell/6.1.0
chmod +x /opt/microsoft/powershell/6.1.0/pwsh
ln -s /opt/microsoft/powershell/6.1.0/pwsh /usr/bin/pwsh
  1. Installation of PowerCLI 11
wget https://vdc-download.vmware.com/vmwb-repository/dcr-public/bcf68905-9a91-47d0-bae0-633341cb176c/05735056-17f1-42c4-b909-312eb92ad423/VMware-PowerCLI-11.0.0-10380590.zip
unzip –x VMware-PowerCLI-11.0.0-10380590.zip
mkdir –p /root/.local/share/powershell/Modules/
mv VMware* /root/.local/share/powershell/Modules/
  1. Installing the Modules (Failes)
    pwsh
    PS /root/myusername/tmp> $PSVersionTable.PSVersion
Major  Minor  Patch  PreReleaseLabel BuildLabel
-----  -----  -----  --------------- ----------

… I also tried to explicitly install just the “VMware.PowerCLI” Module, which fails in the same way. What am I doing wrong? Please help.
