PSEXEC for get ComputerName in remote Server

I have Windows 7 machine named MY_MACHINE.
I want connect to Windows Server 2012 named REMOTE_SERVER.
I use psexec 2.11 version.

When I test, I cannot get the OK result that is Computer Name = REMOTE_SERVER

First test:

C:\Tests\Tools>PsExec \\REMOTE_SERVER.OTHERDOMAIN.local -u OTHERDOMAIN\ONE_USER
