Problem: Cannot to deploy a logical switch (vSwitch) to a Windows Server 2016 node.
Environment: 2x10GB Network Cards – IBM Flex Chassis (not that matters…)
Error:
An internal error has occurred trying to contact the ‘hypervserver01.domain.com’ server: : .
WinRM: URL: [http://hypervserver01.domain.com:5985], Verb: [INVOKE], Method: [GetFinalResult], Resource: [http://schemas.microsoft.com/wbem/wsman/1/wmi/root/scvmm/AsyncTask?ID=1001]
Unknown error (0x80041008)
Recommended Action
Check that WS-Management service is installed and running on server ‘hypervserver01.domain.com’. For more information use the command “winrm helpmsg hresult”. If ‘hypervserver01.domain.com’ is a host/library/update server or a PXE server role then ensure that VMM agent is installed and running. Refer to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2742275 for more details.
Solution: In my case, I tried the following. Ultimately, it came down to my last case (enabling the physical network card).
- Disable Windows Firewalls on both SCVMM and the Hyper-V 2016 server
- Change the default WinRM port to 5985
winrm set winrm/config/Listener?Address=*+Transport=HTTP '@{Port="5985"}'
- Enable the secondary physical port
SCOM & Other Geeky Stuff 
An outstanding share! I have just forwarded this onto a colleague who has been doing a little homework on this. And he in fact ordered me breakfast because I discovered it for him… lol. So allow me to reword this…. Thanks for the meal!! But yeah, thanks for spending the time to talk about this topic here on your website.
