Hey Guys,

iam a trainee in IT in my second year and for the next half year of my traineship. So next half year i try to learn as much as possible about windows client/server. 

I set up a BareMetal-Hyper-Visor with Hyper V 2019 and now wanna connect to it remotley with my Windows 10 Client. 

I followed instructions here: 

Both Computers are in the same Workgroup called hyper and i enabled on both machines ping. Both machines can ping each other. From the network side everything looks ok. 

The Computers are still not  in a domain, because i want to virtualize the domaincontroller on the Hyper Visor. 

But i struggle get remote connection done. I followed the instructions: 

Connect to a Windows Server 2016 or Windows 10 remote host outside your domain, or with no domain Remotely manage Hyper-V hosts | Microsoft Learn

Step: 2 Set-Item WSMan:\localhost\Client\TrustedHosts -Value "fqdn-of-hyper-v-host"


I Entered this into Powershell:

Set-Item WSMan:\localhost\Client\TrustedHosts -Value "HyperVServer1"

What is "fqdn-of-hyper-v-host"? Is this the name of the hyper V host?

The Output was:

Set-Item : The client cannot connect to the destination specified in the request. Verify 

that the service on the destination is running and is accepting requests. Consult the 

logs and documentation for the WS-Management service running on the destination, most 

commonly IIS or WinRM. If the destination is the WinRM service, run the following 

command on the destination to analyze and configure the WinRM service: "winrm 

quickconfig". 

At line:1 char:1 

+ Set-Item WSMan:\localhost\Client\TrustedHosts -Value "fqdn-of-hyper-v ... 

+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 

    + CategoryInfo          : NotSpecified: (:) [Set-Item], InvalidOperationException 

    + FullyQualifiedErrorId : System.InvalidOperationException,Microsoft.PowerShell.Comm 

   ands.SetItemCommand

I already tried installing installing WinrM on the hyper V host but still the same Problem. 

Can someone help me with this?
