Hi,

I am using Ansible PywinRm to connect and run powershell on the remote windows 2012 R2 server.

I am getting the error

# access denied on new cluster command on adding the second node to the cluster.

Below are the connection details

import winrm  
s = winrm.Session(‘192.X.X.X’,auth=(‘administrator@CORP.LOCAL’, ‘anything’), transport=‘kerberos’)  
r = s.run\_cmd(‘ipconfig’, [‘/all’]) — works fine  
r = s.run\_ps(“”“New-Cluster -Name sqlaagcluster -Node firstcomputer.CORP.LOCAL,secondcomputer.CORP.LOCAL -StaticAddress 192.X.X.X”“”) — access denied on the second computer

Please help.

Thanks,  
Ashish
