WFA - Intermittent Error - Could not get credentials for xx-xxxx

d_ellis — Wed, 04 Jun 2025 22:38:07 GMT

Hello,

Is anyone aware of solutions outside of ensuring IIS and W3SVC have been disabled for this intermittent error? It still persists for me even with upgrading WFA to the latest version. The particular workflow where we are experiencing the error is leverging the following cmdlets.

Set-NaVolSize

Get-NaVolSize

Get-NaSnapshotReserve

Get- NaAggrSpace

Thanks,

David

Hi David,

Kindly get in touch with NetApp Global Support and raise a customer case. WFA is already looking to find root cause on this bug.

Your inconvinience is regretted.
