Test-AdfsFarmBehaviorLevelRaise error WinRM

I tried to raise the ADFS FBL with Test-AdfsFarmBehaviorLevelRaise:
Database configuration successfully retrieved.
Verified that the server is the primary node in the WID farm.

Test-AdfsFarmBehaviorLevelRaise : Database upgrade cannot be performed on *. Error: Connecting to remote server * failed with the following error message : WinRM cannot process the request. The following error occurred while using Kerberos authentication: Cannot find the computer ***. Verify that the computer exists on the network and that the name provided is spelled correctly.

The configuration database cannot be upgraded. Database upgrade cannot be performed on *. Error: Connecting to remote server *.
Successfully verified that new built-in relying party trusts can be created.

*** - primary server.

I checked that Windows Remote Manager service is running.
I checked that TCP 5985 is not blocked.

I am running the command on the primary server. I have checked the ADFS service is in good health before I run this command.
I am using a domain account to raise the FBL.

Any advice on how I can raise the FBL?

    Are you running it from an elevated PowerShell console?
