Hi all,
I’m a dev and I’ve been jazzed by the DSC and I’m trying to getting a simple DSC push working, but running into an error.
I spun up 2 Windows Server 2012 R2 VMs in the cloud and on the target I changed the firewall restriction on the WRM rule to all IPs (its just for testing). Then on the other VM I was able to validate this by running (Test-WSMan -ComputerName 52.4.84.1) and getting a valid response. I then generated the mof files and executed “Start-DscConfiguration -wait -verbose -path .\WebSiteConfig”. That failed with the error below:
[blockquote]VERBOSE: Perform operation ‘Invoke CimMethod’ with following parameters, ‘‘methodName’ =
SendConfigurationApply,‘className’ = MSFT_DSCLocalConfigurationManager,‘namespaceName’ =
root/Microsoft/Windows/DesiredStateConfiguration’.

[/blockquote]
I made sure that I was running the shell as Administrator as still no go. After reading up some more, I ran a cim command (Get-CimClass -ComputerName 52.4.84.1 -ClassName Win32_Process) to see if that works and that too failed
Get-CimClass : Access is denied.

But, if I execute the same command on the target VM I get back a valid response. So I don’t know if it’s a firewall issue or some other configuration I need to apply on the target. I would really appreciate any pointers!!!
Thanks
