HCW Error when configuring the mail flow
HI Guys,
Trying to work this issue arround came accross a senario. I created a new org admin account, did not assign any permission. Then try to run the Hybrid Wizard, It worked. While i try the old admin account same error. Test it guys maybe it will work for you.
Vimal - can clarify more please. When you say "I created a new org admin account, did not assign any permissions" do you mean you created a new account in your local AD and then added it to the Exchange Org admin Security group within AD then run the HCW? If so, what do you mean that you did not assign any permissions?
Please kindly elaborate-
I am willing to try this method at this point with a little more background on the requirements.

- Hi Ron, I created an office 365 only account with a UPN of tenant.onmicrosoft.com as the username. add user role as org admin. In the HCW wizard use the new account to signing to office365.
Just had a chance to do this, no luck. I received a different error this time, but it was on the same set-inboundconnctor command.
WinRM cannot complete the operation. Verify that the specified computer name is valid, that the computer is accessible over the network, and that a firewall exception for the WinRM service is enabled and allows access from this computer.
Still waiting for my call back from MS after getting it transferred to another group.
- No luck on the new account for me. When you say org account, you mean in the on-premises server, right? Or did you use a new account in Exchange Online?
Tom- I'm certain it is something on their end. The error is:
A variable that cannot be referenced in restricted language mode or a Data section is being referenced. Variables that can be referenced include the following: $PSCulture, $PSUICulture, $true, $false, and $null
+ CategoryInfo : InvalidOperation: (:) [], RuntimeException

Since it is a remote session, I don't think we have any control over this.We plan on removing the connector via PS instead of the ECP late on a Friday night. Let it "marinate" thru the night to allow for that connector to "purge" from theTenant. Then re-run the HCW on Saturday morning with fingers crossed that it had enough time to delete. I asked and was told if it still errors at that time, that it is ok to continue to try to run the HCW until success every couple of hours. In other words, not harm or ill effect to continue to try setup the HCW. Not exaclty the best way or definitely a flaw on this whole process IMO as obviously others are experiencing the same issues even with different type of HCW deployments. Very frustrating to say the least and of course does not instill confidence with our leadership with the problems we have experienced just trying to lay the tracks in preparation for a migration.
This will push back our migration at least another week now.
I'll update with our progress.
- Just to confirm creating a new org admin accounts work for 2 of my clients
Creating new Admin Account in Office 365 and re-run Hybrid config wizard worked.
For Me it is not change ,
Surprizingly even if you do direct connection to Office 365 portal via ps and give the command get-hybriddatacenterips , it gives the same Dump error,
I am not sure how changing admin account resolve this issue , unless there is cache thing being cleared,
