Exchange 2016 Remote PowerShell connection issues

[Vignesh Mudliar]

Hello,

I am looking for some advice on this issue. We have several Exchange servers and they all connect to a set of 6 Exchange 2016 servers. The connection is made remotely to PowerShell via the PowerShell URL. However, since the past 1 week, we have had reports of intermittent connection issues with Winrm errors on the servers trying to do so. This started a day before we noticed time sync issues on our AD domain controllers. That issue has since been fixed, and all the Exchange servers have been rebooted.

I don’t see any errors in our Exchange server event viewers. I did search for event 1035 which is related to time sync/difference issues, but didn’t find any. Any ideas?

Thank you!

Sounds like a networking issue. Check if the remote servers are reachable in your PowerShell script before you connect via Remoting. If ping fails, log the error.
