Description

The Debug-Job cmdlet lets you debug scripts that are running within jobs. The cmdlet is designed to debug PowerShell Workflow jobs, background jobs, and jobs running in remote sessions. Debug-Job accepts a running job object, name, ID, or instance ID as input, and starts a debugging session on the script it is running. The debugger quit command stops the job and running script. The exit command detaches the debugger, and allows the job to continue to run.

Examples

Example 1: Debug a job by job ID

This command breaks into a running job with an ID of 3.

Debug-Job -ID 3

Id     Name            PSJobTypeName   State         HasMoreData     Location             Command

          Entering debug mode. Use h or ? for help.

          Hit Line breakpoint on 'C:\TestWFDemo1.ps1:8'

          At C:\TestWFDemo1.ps1:8 char:5
