[nd39475]

Code: Select all

Connect-VBRServer -server veeamServer.domain.com -port 9392

↑ no longer connects using my environment's user-session credentials automatically.

Code: Select all

Connect-VBRServer -server veeamServer.domain.com -port 9392 -User myusername

↑ echos password in plain-text, and also does not successfully connect.

Code: Select all

cmdlet Connect-VBRServer at command pipeline position 1
Supply values for the following parameters:
Password: typingmypassword
Connect-VBRServer : PowerShell client update environment initialization failed: Failed to connect to Veeam Backup & Replication server:

the only thing that works now is

Code: Select all

Connect-VBRServer -server veeamServer.domain.com -port 9392 -Credential $(Get-Credential)

↑ which is okay, but different.

Hi nd39475,

I was not able to reproduce with my 12.2 server and a remote console -- the error provided sounds like a pretty standard connection issue, so if the working method you have isn't suitable, please open a Support Case and allow Veeam Support time to review the issue. Be sure to include logs for Support to review. (Use the 3rd radio option, select the Veeam Server from the host list)

Please share your case number here if you create a case.

Thanks!
