ISSUE: Server Manager remote management error for clustered servers
Dear Windows Server Insider Team,
After long puzzles someone finally found a solution that Windows Server 2022 and vNext will appear "online" with no errors in Server Manager.
Warning: do not recompile WMI MOFs, especially when not broken, there's is an article on techcommunity.microsoft.com about it. Refer [1]
Scenario:
Windows Server 2022
Azure Stack HCI 22H2
Windows Server vNext
Part of Hyper-V fail-over cluster
Issue:
Server Manager reports nodes as Online.
Yet indicating an error /limitation
Refer [2]
Reproducible:
yes, 100% on cluster nodes
Impact:
Errors in event log
Customers might needlessly try to troubleshoot or contact support
Workaround:
Add the Cluster computer account to the local Event Log Reader group of each Cluster nodes.

Thanks for your great description! Workaround2 helped a lot!
Dear EldenChristensen do you know if this item is already in triage and a fix is coming for vNext or even earlier versions? there are meanwhile several techcommunity articles about people tinkering around with this issue. This could harm more than solving the issue (registry changes and needless MOF recompiling). Thank you very much for your time!
Deleted To get rid of the errors in Server Status you just need to add the Cluster Object to "Event Log Readers" as described in Workaround 2. Then those warning messages will no longer appear and the server will be shown as "Online".
About the others - I personally won't do a thing since each and every Server 2022 is showing those Warning Messages in Eventlog. I wouldn't mess with the registry and MOF Files either.
I have updated the original post and removed other workarounds with the one named by Christian_Feuerstein.
Thank you for adding a concise solution, which can be implemented best by group policy GPP, to make it transparent and lasting.
