All,
I have one basic script to connect vcenter and poweroff all VMs, two days ago when i ran this script i received below error on powershell window.
If i understood correctly, Stop-VM command was not sent to vCenter but my all VMs were started shutting down, Please correct if i am wrong. What is the meaning of this error and if commands are not sent to vCenter then why my VMs started shutting down.
Note - before running stop-vm command, vCenter was connected successfully.
Shutting down VMs
Stop-VM : 4/5/2019 3:10:36 AM Stop-VM An error occurred while making the HTTP request to https://vCenter/sdk. This
could be due to the fact that the server certificate is not configured properly with HTTP.SYS in the HTTPS case. This
could also be caused by a mismatch of the security binding between the client and the server.
