Server Manager problem: Online - Data retrieval failures occurred

Hello,

I'm using Windows Server 2022 and I have this problem: data retrieval on Server Manager.
Is there a fix for this issue?

Obs:

  • this is a test lab
  • all servers are domain members
  • I'm connecting on all servers with the domain Administrator account.
  • tested with both Firewall on and off
  • do NOT recommend this workaround: delete/rename the registry keys HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WINEVT\Channels\xxx

Thank you.

    At the top of this article the recommendation says:

    I do NOT recommend this workaround:
    delete/rename the registry keys HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WINEVT\Channels\xxx

    Sorry for being such a stickler for details here, but are you recommending I delete everything in that registry folder or are you suggesting I delete a single item called "xxx" because I do not see an object called xxx, but there must be maybe 400 folders in there. Maybe even more than that.

    Are you suggesting I wipe out the entire ** HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WINEVT\Channels\ ** section? or perhaps rename it to channels-old

    Do I understand you correctly?

    Hi, after backup I just deleted REG_DWORD "Enabled"=dword:00000001 that's enough so that the error no longer appears.

    Experiencing the same issue. Built out 3 separate 2 node clusters. One cluster is physical and the other two are virtualized. Clean installs on all the nodes. However 4 of the 6 nodes have this error, 2 do not. Even the local server retrieving its own data in server manager generates the error on itself, not just remote mgt servers. Only thing in common for the 6 installs, is each reused a computer name/account that exists in the domain. Also seeing the same issue as @ZacZG with Administrative Events in event viewer.

    Very frustrating for sure.

    Same problem here, server 2022, 2 node cluster, no errors when logged in as local administrator.
    Anyone found the solution?
