VS installer's startup is not instantaneous and there's some lag in the
CI/CD pipeline. Adjust strategy to wait for startup (20 seconds max) to
make the script more robust. (Doesn't seem to get triggered, but that
doesn't mean it won't happen in the future.)
Add the the following command line flags:
--force: Forces VS instance termination, if any are running.
(Unclear impact. Paranoia.)
--norestart: Delay reboot, if reboot needed. (Probable reason why
(Most likely reason why installs were incomplete.)
--installWhileDownloading: Self-explanitory. (Unclear impact.)
"Get-VSSetupInstance/Select-VSSetupInstance" will report a VS
instance ID if successful, e.g.:
DEBUG: Get-VSSetupInstance/Select-VSSetupInstance
InstanceId : 8d19910a
DisplayName : Visual Studio Enterprise 2022
InstallationVersion : 17.6.33815.320
InstallationPath : C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\Enterprise

Useful output in the GH CI/CD log for future debugging.
Open SIMH machine simulator
This is the codebase of SIMH, a framework and collection of computer system simulators.
SIMH was created by Bob Supnik, originally at Digital Equipment Corporation, and extended by contributions of many other people. It is now an open source project, licensed under an MIT open source license (see LICENSE.txt for the specific wording). The project gatekeepers are the members of the SIMH Steering Group. We welcome and encourage contributions from all. Contributions will be covered by the project license.
The Open SIMH code base was taken from a code base maintained by Mark Pizzolato as of 12 May 2022. From that point onward there is no connection between that source and the Open SIMH code base. A detailed listing of features as of that point may be found in SIMH-V4-status.
