Connect-HVserver error

[AreasCorp]

Hi all,

I'm getting this error when I try to connect with the Horizon Api :

Connect-HVServer : The request channel timed out while waiting for a reply

after 00:01:39.9989768. Increase the timeout value passed to the call to

Request or increase the SendTimeout value on the Binding. The time allotted to

this operation may have been a portion of a longer timeout.

At D:\ListadoVDD.ps1:53 char:1

+ Connect-HVServer -server myserver.fqdn.corp -User $vcAdmin

-Password $v ...

+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

~~~

    + CategoryInfo          : NotSpecified: (:) [Connect-HVServer], Exception

    + FullyQualifiedErrorId : System.Exception,VMware.VimAutomation.HorizonVie

   w.Commands.Cmdlets.ConnectHVServer

Any ideas?

Thank you very much.

Can you open the Admin Page from that same station where you run the Connect-HVServer cmdlet?

Both are going to the same Connection Server, using the same protocol, so both should be working, or not working afaik.

[AreasCorp]

Yes I do. I can open the view admin page from the station runnin the power cli.

Thank you.

Try disabling the Web timeout (default is 300 seconds) with

Set-PowerCLIConfiguration -Scope AllUsers -WebOperationTimeoutSeconds -1 -Confirm:$false

Note that you'll have to stop/start your PowerShell session to activate the new setting.

There have been mentions that the -1 value didn't work, in that case try setting the timeout to high value, for example 3000.

Got the same error after the change:

Connect-HVServer : The request channel timed out while waiting for a reply

after 00:01:39.9843939. Increase the timeout value passed to the call to

Request or increase the SendTimeout value on the Binding. The time allotted to

Which PowerCLI and which Horizon View version are you using?

[AreasCorp]

Hi again,

Horizon 7.03 and powercli 6.5 R1.

Thank you.

[LucD]

The only difference I see, is that I'm using 6.5.1 (which comes after 6.5R1).

But other than that I see no way to replicate the error you are seeing.

You could try a PowerCLI upgrade?

[AreasCorp]

Updated to 6.5.1 and got the same error:

I'm afraid not, besides trying from another PC.

Looks like an issue, perhaps you should raise a SR.

[FranklinS]

I am currently experiencing this same issue.  Did you ever find the solution?
