Unable to add connectors in Service Manager

Hi everyone , I am back with a new blog and this time its SCSM(System Center Service Manager) . This blog is something to do with a restriction in Service Manager . The issue happens when we install SCSM and try to add connector like AD connector ,Orchestrator connector to name a few . When you try to add the connector you will receive the following exception error message:

exception error: TargetInvocationException

To get around the error message and successfully add connectors in Service Manager please follow along :

1, Run regedit.exe

2, Go to register key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa\FipsAlgorithmPolicy

3, Set Enabled = 0.

4, Restart the server

5, Try to create AD connector again.

After following the above mentioned steps you will be able to successfully create an connector .

Hope this helps 🙂
