Incorrect credentials

raffs — Wed, 04 Jun 2025 14:09:04 GMT

I have PS toolkit 4.2.0.0

When i use the tollkit to connect to a ontap cdot 9.1p3 using a local user , i connect successfuly , and i am able to run commands without any "iincorrect credentials" errors being displayed.

When i perform the same process as a domain user "a------\n000111" - i get occassional "incorrect credentials" for exactly the same commands,

GLOBAL:Valid_ClusterMgmtIP = @("10.99.99.99")
$netapp_filer_name=[System.Net.Dns]::GetHostByAddress($Valid_ClusterMgmtIP).HostName

"netapp_filer_name = $netapp_filer_name"

try
{
"running command : Connect-NcController -name $netapp_filer_name -credential $credentials"
$script:connect_to_primary_netapp_filer=Connect-NcController -name $netapp_filer_name -credential ACCOUNT-01\n103999 -ErrorAction Stop
"Connection to $connect_to_primary_netapp_filer : successful"

}
catch
{
"`tThe Login to the Netapp Filer : $netapp_filer using its FQDN name didnt work"
break
}

PS C:\Users\d------>

The error / warning result is that the count of volumes isn't as expected.

Anyone in the netapp community seen this issue before ?

I am getting a similar error message. I am not using different accounts to log in. Once I connect to Netapp, I am trying to upgrade the controller using the Get-NCclusterImageUpdate command and it fails using the incorrect credential.
