Environment

NetIQ PlateSpin Forge 4.x, 11.x
NetIQ PlateSpin Migrate 11.x, 12.x
NetIQ PlateSpin Protect 10.x, 11.x

Situation

 The replication fails during the "Refreshing Server Details" or "Create failover VM" stage with the message ERROR: "An error occurred in the Operations Framework server: Method not found".

Resolution

Uninstall the product. Before uninstalling, it may be desirable to export the already added workloads. Follow KB https://support.microfocus.com/kb/doc.php?id=D7970601 for details on how to export the workloads and import them. 
Log back into the PlateSpin server with a local account in the local group Administrators. If it's possible, it is ideal to login as the local user Administrator.
Review the product's installation guide to install any and all missing prerequisites. 
Reinstall the product.
If applicable, import the workloads that were exported. 
 

Cause

The product may not be installed correctly despite the installation not failing completely, likely due to missing prerequisites.
