Get-TrustAuthorityKeyProviderServerCertificate times out before task completes

[DSeaman]

I have a problem with the Get-TrustAuthorityKeyProviderServerCertificate command. I'm using it as:

Get-TrustAuthorityKeyProviderServerCertificate -KeyProviderServer $kp.KeyProviderServers

and the task takes about 60 seconds to complete (according to the vCenter task console), but the powershell command times out after 30 seconds:

I think the failure is due to the timeout after 30 seconds. But I haven't found the proper PowerCLI command to extend the timeout. Any idea on how I can get the command to successfully run?

Same issue. Have you solved the problem?

vSphere 8 and the issue persists. I can't continue to set up a Trust Authority without this crucial step.

Are there any alternative ways to export the Trusted Key Provider Server certificate?
