I have a development server with 3 instances: Default, A and B. It is
a physical server, non clustered. Whenever the
syspolicy_purge_history job runs at 2 am, I get failed login alerts.
Looking at the job steps, all are successfully completed. It appears
that some point during the step "Erase Phantom System Health Records"
is when the failed logins occur.
syspolicy_purge_history on instance B works OK.
syspolicy_purge_history on the Default instance seems to want to
connect to instance B, resulting in:
Error: 18456, Severity: 14, State: 11. Login failed for user
'Machinename\sqlsvc-B'. Reason: Token-based server access validation
failed with an infrastructure error. Check for previous errors.
[CLIENT: <local machine>] .
No errors are reported by Powershell.
syspolicy_purge_history on the A instance seems to want to connect to
the Default instance resulting in
Error: 18456, Severity: 14, State: 11. Login failed for user
'Machinename\sqlsvc-Default'. Reason: Token-based server access
validation failed with an infrastructure error. Check for previous
errors. [CLIENT: <local machine>] .
Then it tries to connect to the B instance, resulting in
Error: 18456, Severity: 14, State: 11. Login failed for user
'Machinename\sqlsvc-B'. Reason: Token-based server access validation
failed with an infrastructure error. Check for previous errors.
[CLIENT: <local machine>] .
No errors are reported by Powershell.
I tried the steps posted here hoping they would fix it.

virtual server nor is it in a cluster. Do you have any
suggestions? Thanks.
