powercli, Setting all VMs to instal the latest vmware tools

I'm likely missing something,, or using the wrong words when I search.. Can I use powercli to configure all vm's to update vmware tools to the attached version? I don't really want to go through them all and check a box....

What do you mean with "attached version"?
Is that an ISO file you attach to each VM?

Basically you can use the Update-Tools cmdlet, like discussed in Solved: Re: Updating VMWare tools on all Windows VM's - VMware Technology Network VMTN

Sorry.... In Vcenter, there is a configuration to upgrade vmware tools at reboot.  Is there a corresponding config in powercli that I can use to set all vms to upgrade?
