Get-licenseDatamanager error

[selva_0087]

Hi All,

I'm exploring the licensing part with Get-licenseDatamanager command. I'm running PowerCLI 11.2. I connect to my vCenter server and then run command Get-LicenseDatamanager, I get below error:

Get-LicenseDataManager : 6/12/2019 1:56:40 PM   Get-LicenseDataManager          The underlying connection was closed: Could not establish trust relationship for the SSL/TLS secure channel.

At line:1 char:11

+ $Licens = Get-LicenseDataManager -Server lqap4242.lss.emc.com

The InvalidCertificateAction is set to Ignore. Not sure what else am I missing here. Please help. TIA.

Is the InvalidCertificateAction set to Ignore in all three scopes?
Do a Get-PowerCLIConfiguration.

Could it be that you are trying to use a TLS protocol (i.e. TLS v1.0) that the environment doesn't allow.
See Mike's post vSphere and TLS 1.2

Yes, its set to Ignore for all three Scope:

Scope    ProxyPolicy     DefaultVIServerMode InvalidCertificateAction  DisplayDeprecationWarnings WebOperationTimeout

                                                                                                  Seconds

-----    -----------     ------------------- ------------------------  -------------------------- -------------------

Session  UseSystemProxy  Multiple            Ignore                    True                       300

User                     Multiple            Ignore

AllUsers                                     Ignore

And what about the TLS protocol version?
