How do I create a new certificate for Windows Admin Center??
I just now observed that our internal WAC certificate was only two months old and it's already expired. Can I simply create and use our own self-signed certificate and use it?? Do I install it like normal certificates within the Certificates MMC and WAC will automagically use it??

So, im getting ready to Migrate 10TB of data. Both servers are running Server 2019 Both have the Admin center installed, and "Storage Migration Service" is installed on both. I have it to a stage where i want to "validate Source and Destination Devices" when i go to validate it, it gives these 2 errors. **************************** The destination proxy is registered.

I installed WAC into a Win2k19 server, with all the defaults except WinRM was set up as https, not the default. I can add servers, but not connect to any of them. All the servers I put in have PS 5.x and WinRM enabled. I get the following not-so-helpful messages: To perform a single sign-in using your Windows account, you might need to set up Kerberos constrained delegation. -- the above command is supposed to do this, admin center is logged in as essexarc\administrator Error 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". I tried this: Set-ADComputer -Identity (Get-ADComputer dc1) -PrincipalsAllowedToDelegateToAccount (Get-ADComputer ac1) where ac1 is the WAC server, dc1 is a server I want to manage. Haven't found anything on the interwebs. Thank you, Tomtlyczko2Feb 26, 2025Copper Contributor6KViews2likes4CommentsStorage Migration Service Error 36890
Hello Really hoping someone can help, I have found similiar posts but they are much older and usually resolution has been to update Storage Migration Extension (I am using 4.1.0) I am receiving Error 36890 and gets stuck at loading once I reach the start the transfer stage (more details below) Source Server is 2008 R2 and Destination is Server 2022 Standard, Current server is a DC but my understanding is I will need to demote before we start the cutover?

Windows Server is consuming more than 50.000000 %
Windows Server is consuming more than 50.000000 % of physical memory, which exceeds your configured threshold. I'm getting this alert on a server that still has 90GB RAM free. I cannot find anywhere in Windows Admin Center to actually configure this. I found a post on this forum that has this same subject, but it's solution does not seem correct in my case. When I check the parameter set as the solution, mine is set to 0.10, which I guess is 10%. But it should be 0.50 if it's the correct parameter. And the solution sets it t a whole number. So it makes even less sense. Get-StorageSubSystem Cluster* | Set-StorageHealthSetting -Name Microsoft.Health.Setting.Node.AvailableToSystemMemoryLimit -Value 95 My setting: PS C:\Windows\system32> Get-StorageSubSystem Cluster* | Get-StorageHealthSetting -Name Microsoft.Health.Setting.Node.AvailableToSystemMemoryLimit Name Value PSComputerName ---- ----- -------------- Microsoft.Health.Setting.Node.AvailableToSystemMemoryLimit 0.100BFAndrewFeb 19, 2025Copper Contributor34Views0likes0CommentsWindows Admin Center 2410: cannot add computers
After a fresh installation of Windows Admin Center 2410, I cannot add any servers, clusters, PCs etc. WAC gives me "You can add this computer to your list of connections, but we can't confirm it's available" when I enter a computer name (either of FQDN or computer name alone). When I change to the Search Active Directory tab, I get: "We can’t search Active Directory because the Windows Admin Center computer isn’t joined to an Active Directory domain. It’s also possible that your account doesn’t have permission to read from Active Directory." The account I use is a domain admin, and the server running WAC is definitely joined to the AD DS. The server had the previous version of WAC installed where everything worked. Now, with the new version, that's no longer the case...ahinterlFeb 17, 2025Brass Contributor3.7KViews8likes14CommentsUpdate Windows Admin Center
