The Remote Procedure Call (RPC) is unavailable when trying to remotely shutdown a computer

Hello!
I operate on a Windows Server 2012 R2(Which is the server for Active Directory)  and I am trying to remotely shutdown a Windows 8.1 computer(which is in the domain).
I am using PowerShell to do this task, but after I introduce the command ( Stop-Computer -ComputerName Name) I get this error :   Stop-Computer : The RPC server is unavailable. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x800706BA)
If you could help me with this, I would appreciate.
Thanks.

Additional information for "Computer : The RPC server is unavailable. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x800706BA):"
In addition to making sure the firewall is allowing traffic (disable to test it to see if that works). YOu can check to make sure that this is allowed:
Windows Firewall: Allow remote administration exception.
Ensure that the remote Windows client machine is registered into DNS with one IP address. This will ensure proper DNS hostname resolution.
Ensure that the DC has only one IP address.
Also, make sure the following services are running on the remote Windows client and are set to automatically start at startup:
Remote Procedure Call (RPC)
TCP/IP NetBIOS Helper
Windows Management Instrumentation

  • WMIProviderException: An error occurred when attempting to connect to the report server remote procedure call (RPC) end point

    I am getting the following error message while trying to configure a database for a Reporting Service Server.  Both SQL Server and Reporting server are 2012 named instances.  I have 2014 instances as well on the same server.

    Can someone help me on this please?

    Hi Jaigi,
    According to your description, you want to change a report server database for Reporting Services. But it fails on the last step and returns a error. Right?
    In this scenario, it seems you are creating a report server database on another server via remote connection. Based on the error message, it has issues on executing the script for generating new database. Please check if you have permission to connect the
    server and create a new database. Also please check if the Reporting Services Windows services is working properly.
    If you have any question, please feel free to ask.
    Best Regards,
    Simon Hou

  • TS3406 why do i get the message (LG-HBM760,I phone, speaker)when trying to make a call?

    why do i get the message (LG-HBM 760,iPhone,speaker) when trying to make a call?

    If you have a bluetooth device connected to the phone, it is allowing you to select the audio device you want to use to handle the call with. There should be a checkmark by the device it is going to use, and you can change that if you like.

  • I'm new to Mac and the program/all called Numbers. I'm trying to use both Average and small in the same formula. What's I'm trying to do is take 20 cells, find the 10 lowest numbers, then get the average and after that multiply it by .96

    I'm new to Mac and the program/all called Numbers. I'm trying to use both Average and small in the same formula. What's I'm trying to do is take 20 cells in a column,  find the 10 lowest numbers, then get the average and after that multiply it by .96  I used to use Excel and the formula worked fine in that. Here is my Formula
    =(average(small(H201:H220,{1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10})))*.96
    This formula worked in Excel and when I converted my spreadsheet over to Numbers, this formula no longer works.
    The best that I have been able to do so far is use small in 10 different cells, then get the average of the 10 cells and finally multiply that average by .96  So instead of using 1 cell, I'm using 12 cells to get my answer.
    This is a formula that I will be using all the time. The next cell would be =(average(small(H202:H221,{1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10})))*.96
    Hoping I explain myself well enough and that someone can help me.
    Thanks

    You can still do it in one cell but it will be more unruly than the Excel array formula.
    =average(small(H201:H220,1),small(H201:H220,2),small(H201:H220,3),...,small(H201:H220,10))*0.96
    where you would, of course, replace the "..." with the remaining six SMALL functions.

  • HT1923 did anyone get the apple application support was not found when trying to instal?

    I am having trouble instaling itunes.  has anyone got the apple application support was not found when trying to instal itunes?  it looks like it is not installing all of files to my computer and it can not reach a certain folder

    With the Error 2, let's try a standalone Apple Application Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of the issue.
    Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
    http://www.rarlab.com/
    Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
    Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleApplicationSupport.msi to do a standalone AAS install.
    Does it install properly for you?
    If instead you get an error message during the install, let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

    3. Resetting the crawl index and run a full crawl .

  • Help. Just got the latest and greatest ipod touch.  When trying to setup icloud, my email address is verified but when I touch settings, icloud, account tries unsuccessfully to verify account.

    Help. Just got the latest and greatest ipod touch.  When trying to setup icloud, my email address is verified but when I touch settings, icloud, account tries unsuccessfully to verify account.

    Why am I sometimes asked to verify my Apple ID by email?
    When you create a new Apple ID or make certain changes to your account, Apple will require you to sign in by following the link in a verification email. This is to help protect your identity and keep your account secure. Some Apple services, such as FaceTime and GameCenter, require email validation.
    How do I verify my Apple ID by email?
    Simply follow the link in the verification email that says "Verify Now." Sign in with your current Apple ID and password, then click Verify Address. You can also verify by signing in at My Apple ID. You'll receive an email prompting you to verify.
