Brand new windows 2012 domain, server manager unable to remotely manager other member servers.


i created new 2012 vm, installed adds, dns, gave account domain admin , enterprise admin rights.  then created 2 more vms generated sids, joined domain, added them server manager on dc , unable remotely admin of member servers.

server manager says - online - data retrieval failures occured.

if right click on member server "add roles , features" , "restart server" options greyed out.  why these options greyed out?

the remote powershell option not work , gives me following error: "the winrm client recieved  http server error status 500 remote service did not include other information cause fo failure."

invalidarugment:  (test-2012-app2.web.local:string) [enter-pssession], psremotingtransportexception

fullyqualifiederrorid:  createremoterunspacefailed

i turned windows firewall off on 3 servers rule out.  i @ complete loss on why functionality not working.  windows remote management enabled on 3 servers.

i solved issue.

i built 2 more 2012r2 servers in production.  these servers winrm worked out of box.   realized in test lab have proxy server internet access.

i had run command netsh winhttp set proxy xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:xxxx force windows update use proxy server download updates.  i think breaking winrm , why 500 errors.

kind of bummer can't set proxy , have winrm function @ same time...
