4 years ago Ok, looking at the error message you get this goes wrong at this stage:
Set-RDCertificate, in the beginning of the code, indeed calls Get-RDServer (which seems to be unavailable in your error).
The reason it's possible that command cannot be found is not entirely clear to me, it could be related to the fact that in the module where this command is defined (C:\windows\system32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\Modules\RemoteDesktop\Deployment.psm1) it's called Get-Server, not Get-RDServer. The RD prefix is only added as soon as the RemoteDesktop module is loaded.
Since this module loads the RemoteDesktop module explicitly, I would not expect any issues there though, but in this case it's clear there are issues.
Would you be so kind to help testing a change in the code? Maybe if we load the module in the global context, this prevents the issue. What you would need to do locally on your machine is change this line:
and make it:
Import-Module -Name RemoteDesktop -Global
Then test it with your configuration. Thanks in advance!

ISSUE DESCRIPTION I'm using Ansible to run the xRDCertificateConfiguration resource and only when applying a certificate to the RDWebaccess role I get the following error message.
Failed to invoke DSC Set method: Failed to apply certificate from path ''C:\windows\temp\rds-cert.pfx'' to role ''RDWebAccess'' on connection broker ''hostnamel''. Error: ''The term ''Get-RDServer'' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program. Check the spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is correct and try again.'''
Suggested solution to the issue
I figured this was an issue due to the box not being ready so I added a delay of 60 seconds and 10 retires and unfortunately the result is the same.
The DSC configuration that is used to reproduce the issue (as detailed as possible)
Output of successfully applying a certificate to other roles
