Trouble with Add-DhcpServerv4FailoverScope and remote powershell

[Joseph M Durnal]

When I would try to run the following:

[dhcpserver01.contoso.local]: PS C:\Users\josephdurnal\Documents> Add-DhcpServerv4FailoverScope -Name "Active-Active" -ScopeId 10.0.1.0


I would get:

Failed to update failover relationship Active-Active on server DHCPSERVER.
+ CategoryInfo : PermissionDenied: (dhcpserver.contoso.local:root/Microsoft/...v4FailoverScope) [
Add-DhcpServerv4FailoverScope], CimException
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : WIN32 5,Add-DhcpServerv4FailoverScope


I went to another server with DHCP management tools installed and ran:

PS C:\Users\josephdurnal> Add-DhcpServerv4FailoverScope -Name "Active-Active" -ScopeId 10.0.1.0 -ComputerName dhcpserver.contoso.local

That worked fine. Logged in to the server with the same credentials used for the remote powershell
