PowerCli - InvokeVMScript AUTH ERROR

Hello,

I'm trying to call a script in a virtual machine. I need to launch this script as administrator

my command :

Invoke-VMScript -vm $VM -ScriptText $Myscript -ScriptType BAT -GuestUser "Administrator" -GuestPassword "Password"

I got this error

"An untrusted certificate authority was detected While processing the smartcard certificate used for authentication. Please contact your system administrator.

I can't understand why, i'm already connect to my vCenter...

any idea?

Did you already try setting the InvalidCertificateAction to Ignore with the Set-PowerCliConfiguration cmdlet ?

After one hour, nothing more... and the script does nothing (i try a echo toto > c:\test.txt and nothing happend)

The command i'm using :

Invoke-VMScript -vm $VM ScriptText "runas /user:$GuestUser $MYSCRIPT" -ScriptType BAT -GuestUser $GuestUser -GuestPassword $GuestPassword
