I have a long standing Hyper-V test environment running on Server 2008 R2 core. Recently decided to try Server Manager remotely from a Windows 7 machine to manage the 2008 Core.
Both machines are in the same workgroup and successfully configured for Remote Desktop. The Remote Server Administration Tool for Windows 7 are installed.
Run Server Manager on Windows 7 then try connecting to Hyper-V server and I get this error:
TechNet: Remote Management with Server Manager
On Hyper-V Server
Ensured that I had done the following
- From sconfig.cmd
- selected 4) Configures Remote Management the server
- then 3) Allow Server Manager Remote Management
this had no effect on the error there was no need to reboot the server as I had already installed PowerShell but did so anyway but still could not connect with Server Manager
On Windows 7 Client
net start winrm
winrm set winrm/config/client @{TrustedHosts="RemoteComputerName"}
Replace RemoteComputerName with server name
This failed on initial attempt
I should have run the following command first because machines where in workgroup not domain.
reg add HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System /v LocalAccountTokenFilterPolicy /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f
Running the winrm command again and Server Manger could connect to my Hyper-V server.
Still got errors on Server Manager components but a step forward.
