I'm trying to execute the following statement on remoter server:
Invoke-Command -ComputerName server1 -ScriptBlock {Get-Process}
but I get an error message:
[server1] Connecting to remote server failed with the following error message : The client cannot connect to the destination specified in the request. Verify that the serv
ice 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". For more
information, see the about_Remote_Troubleshooting Help topic.
+ CategoryInfo : OpenError: (:) [], PSRemotingTransportException
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : PSSessionStateBroken
What is the reason for this and how to fix it?
There is 2 basical reason:
1) remote computer has not Powershell installed
2) PSremoting is not enabled on remote PC (to enable it read my comment in you answer)

But the command fails with the following error :

Can someone help to mitigate this?
I just missed the statment in the error :
WinRM firewall exception will not work since one of the network
connection types on this machine is set to Public. Change the network connection type to either Domain or Private and
try again.
Turning the network to Private from public did the job
I'm working on a script which will install the windows failover cluster from a remote server
Remote server is hosting windows server 2016.
Cluster contains 2 Nodes Node1 and Node 2 of Windows server 2019
I ran below cmdlet from the remote server and when the node OS was Win 2016 then it created the failover cluster fine without any error, but when the node OS was Windows Server 2019 and the remote server from where I'm running the cmdlet OS is 2016 then I get below error
New-Cluster -Name "newcluster" -Node "win201906","win201905" -StaticAddress "10.0.3.22"
The clustered role was not successfully created. For more information view the report file below.
Report file location: C:\windows\cluster\Reports\Create Cluster Wizard winclus2021 on 2020.08.06 At 19.32.37.htm
New-Cluster : An error occurred while performing the operation.
An error occurred while creating the cluster 'winclus2021'.
An error occurred creating cluster 'winclus2021'.
The parameter is incorrect
file containing the error is generic
As an alternative I thought of running the new-cluster command on the node itself using invoke-command but it gives the error message
Invoke-Command -ComputerName Servername {
New-Cluster -Name $using:Clustername -Node $using:Clusternodes -StaticAddress $using:Clusip
}
There was an error adding node 'win201906' to the cluster

Above permission error incorrect as I'm running the cmdlet using domain joined account which is local admin on both the nodes. And I've logged in with that same account on that remote server.
Can you please suggest a better way of creating cluster from a remote server? as both of the above method seems to be difficult to achieve

Before your question and suggestions; just controlled WinRM service local and remote machines, I enabled PSRemoting and Set-Item TrustedHosts on remote machine.
