I needed to copy a folder to virtual machine on the DMZ network segment.
The firewall rule blocks any access to VM, well I used the Copy-VMGuestFile Powercli Command.

Connect-VIServer <vcenter server FQDN or IP>

$vm = Get-VM -Name <VM target>

Get-Item “<Source Path>” | Copy-VMGuestFile -Destination “<Destination Path on VM>” -VM $vm -LocalToGuest -GuestUser <User VM Guest> -GuestPassword <Password User VM Guest>

After the first tentative I receive this error:

Copy-VMGuestFile : 09/12/2021 11:08:40 Copy-VMGuestFile The request was aborted: The request was cancelled.
At line:1 char:27

Probably it is a time out error and I try to change the WebOperation Timeout Seconds.

PS C:\Windows\system32> Set-PowerCLIConfiguration -WebOperationTimeoutSeconds -1

Scope ProxyPolicy DefaultVIServerMode InvalidCertificateAction DisplayDeprecationWarnings WebOperationTimeout

After the change the error it is resolved
