Server manager: Configuration refresh message

Question

After installing the January SharePoint Server 2019 core update and running the configuration, I restarted my dev server. When going back in my server manager has a notification below. Also, my IIS manager appears to no longer be connected as it now shows "Start page" instead of showing my server and web applications.

SRV-SHAREPOINT: Services refresh: The system cannot access information for one or more services because of insufficient access rights or other reasons. For more information, see the operational channel in the ServerManager-Management Provider log on the target server.

These are the three errors from the Event log showing:

8321 - A certificate validation operation took 12028.2441 milliseconds and has exceeded the execution time threshold. If this continues to occur, it may represent a configuration issue. Please see http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=246987 for more details.

7034 - The AppFabric Caching Service service terminated unexpectedly. It has done this 8 time(s).

6398 - The Execute method of job definition Microsoft.Office.Server.UserProfiles.LMTRepopulationJob (ID 9f5d53fa-c6c7-4471-ae7f-f9fc00bdb472) threw an exception. More information is included below.

Hi @Tevon2.0 ,

This error is typically displayed when standard users have attempted to get information that, by default, they do not have access to collect and view in Server Manager. If the standard user should be able to access the information, run the Enable-ServerManagerStandardUserRemoting cmdlet on the target server. For more information about how to use this cmdlet, see Enable-ServerManagerStandardUserRemoting in the Windows PowerShell cmdlet Help topics.

By the way, as you said installing SharePoint update results in this issue. But as per my knowledge, these issues are nothing to do with SharePoint updates and more like related to your operating system. So, is there any issue reflected at the SharePoint like you cannot access some SharePoint sites and give error or anything else?
