Enable-DbaAgHadr (and maybe other commands) failing with "Get-RunspaceData -wait" on a new maschine without WinRM configured

[andreasjordan]

Verified issue does not already exist?

I have searched and found no existing issue

What error did you receive?

When using PowerShell ISE:

This fixes the issue:

PS C:\Users\initialAdmin> 'y' | winrm quickconfig
WinRM service is already running on this machine.
WinRM is not set up to allow remote access to this machine for management.
The following changes must be made:

Create a WinRM listener on HTTP://* to accept WS-Man requests to any IP on this machine.

Make these changes [y/n]?
WinRM has been updated for remote management.

Created a WinRM listener on HTTP://* to accept WS-Man requests to any IP on this machine.

But I think dbatools should also work on local systems without winrm...

This is the script I have used to setu up the maschine:

@FriedrichWeinmann - Can you help here?

[FriedrichWeinmann]

Not this week, but I've put it on my pile for next week, when I'm less busy transporting kids to theme parks (the tragic burden of Unclehood. Having to make the ultimate sacrifice and visit theme parks ;) ).
Just for clarification: This is all running from an elevated console against localhost, right?
On a computer not yet configured for remoting.

Also, SQL2022 is its native hostname or an additional CNAME added?
If you run this first, do you get the same results?

Set-DbaCmConnection -ComputerName SQL2022 -DisabledConnectionTypes CimRM, WMI

[andreasjordan]

SQL2022 is the one and only Azure VM that my script deploys. I RDP into that maschine.

Will try your suggestion on the next test run.

Same result:
