Description

The New-PSSessionOption cmdlet creates an object that contains advanced options for a user-managed session (PSSession). You can use the object as the value of the SessionOption parameter of cmdlets that create a PSSession, such as New-PSSession, Enter-PSSession, and Invoke-Command.

Without parameters, New-PSSessionOption generates an object that contains the default values for all of the options. Because every property can be edited, you can use the resulting object as a template and create standard option objects for your enterprise.

You can also save a SessionOption object in the $PSSessionOption preference variable. The values of this variable establish new default values for the session options. They are effective when no session options are set for the session and they take precedence over options set in the session configuration, but you can override them by specifying session options or a SessionOption object in a cmdlet that creates a session. For more information about the $PSSessionOption preference variable, see about_Preference_Variables.

When you use a SessionOption object in a cmdlet that creates a session, the session option values take precedence over default values for sessions set in the $PSSessionOption preference variable and in the session configuration. However, they do not take precedence over maximum values, quotas or limits set in the session configuration. For more information about session configurations, see about_Session_Configurations.

Examples

Example 1: Create a default session option

This command creates a SessionOption object with the default values.

New-PSSessionOption

MaximumConnectionRedirectionCount : 5
NoCompression                     : False
NoMachineProfile                  : False
ProxyAccessType                   : IEConfig
ProxyAuthentication               : Negotiate
ProxyCredential                   :
SkipCACheck                       : False
SkipCNCheck                       : False
SkipRevocationCheck               : False
OperationTimeout                  : 00:03:00
NoEncryption                      : False
UseUTF16                          : False
Culture                           :
UICulture                         :
MaximumReceivedDataSizePerCommand :
MaximumReceivedObjectSize         :
ApplicationArguments              :
OpenTimeout                       : 00:03:00
CancelTimeout                     : 00:01:00
IdleTimeout                       : 00:04:00

Example 2: Configure a session by using a session option object

This example shows how to use a SessionOption object to configure a session.

$pso = New-PSSessionOption -Culture "fr-fr" -MaximumReceivedObjectSize 10MB
New-PSSession -ComputerName Server01 -SessionOption $pso

The first command creates a new SessionOption object and saves it in the value of the $pso variable. The second command uses the New-PSSession cmdlet to create a session on the Server01 remote computer. The command uses the SessionOption object in the value of the $pso variable as the value of the SessionOption parameter of the command.

Example 3: Start an interactive session

This command uses the Enter-PSSession cmdlet to start an interactive session with the Server01 computer.

Enter-PSSession -ComputerName Server01 -SessionOption (New-PSSessionOption -NoEncryption -NoCompression)

The value of the SessionOption parameter is a New-PSSessionOption command that has the NoEncryption and NoCompression parameters.

The New-PSSessionOption command is enclosed in parentheses to make sure that it runs before the Enter-PSSession command.

Example 4: Modify a session option object

This example demonstrates that you can modify the SessionOption object. All properties have read/write values.

$a = New-PSSessionOption
$a.OpenTimeout

Days              : 0
Hours             : 0
Minutes           : 3
Seconds           : 0
Milliseconds      : 0
Ticks             : 1800000000
TotalDays         : 0.00208333333333333
TotalHours        : 0.05
TotalMinutes      : 3
TotalSeconds      : 180
TotalMilliseconds : 180000

$a.UICulture = (Get-UICulture)
$a.OpenTimeout = (New-Timespan -Minutes 4)
$a.MaximumConnectionRedirectionCount = 1
$a

MaximumConnectionRedirectionCount : 1
NoCompression                     : False
NoMachineProfile                  : False
ProxyAccessType                   : IEConfig
ProxyAuthentication               : Negotiate
ProxyCredential                   :
SkipCACheck                       : False
SkipCNCheck                       : False
SkipRevocationCheck               : False
OperationTimeout                  : 00:03:00
NoEncryption                      : False
UseUTF16                          : False
Culture                           :
UICulture                         : en-US
MaximumReceivedDataSizePerCommand :
MaximumReceivedObjectSize         :
ApplicationArguments              :
OpenTimeout                       : 00:04:00
CancelTimeout                     : 00:01:00
IdleTimeout                       : 00:04:00

Use this method to create a standard session object for your enterprise, and then create customized versions of it for particular uses.

Example 5: Create a preference variable

This command creates a $PSSessionOption preference variable.

$PSSessionOption = New-PSSessionOption -OpenTimeOut 120000

When the $PSSessionOption preference variable is set in the session, it establishes default values for options in the sessions that are created with the New-PSSession, Enter-PSSession, and Invoke-Command cmdlets.

To make the $PSSessionOption variable available in all sessions, add it to your PowerShell session and to your PowerShell profile.

For more information about the $PSSessionOption preference variable, see about_Preference_Variables. For more information about profiles, see about_Profiles.

Example 6: Fulfill the requirements for a remote session configuration

This example shows how to use a SessionOption object to fulfill the requirements for a remote session configuration.

$skipCN = New-PSSessionOption -SkipCNCheck
New-PSSession -ComputerName 171.09.21.207 -UseSSL -Credential Domain01\User01 -SessionOption $SkipCN

The first command uses the New-PSSessionOption cmdlet to create a SessionOption object that has the SkipCNCheck property. The command saves the resulting session object in the $skipCN variable.

The second command uses the New-PSSession cmdlet to create a new session on a remote computer. The $skipCN check variable is used in the value of the SessionOption parameter.

Because the computer is identified by its IP address, the value of the ComputerName parameter does not match any of the common names in the certificate that is used for Secure Sockets Layer (SSL). As a result, the SkipCNCheck option is required.

Example 7: Make arguments available to a remote session

This example shows how to use the ApplicationArguments parameter of the New-PSSessionOption cmdlet to make additional data available to the remote session.

$team = @{Team="IT"; Use="Testing"}
$TeamOption = New-PSSessionOption -ApplicationArguments $team
$s = New-PSSession -ComputerName Server01 -SessionOption $TeamOption
Invoke-Command -Session $s {$PSSenderInfo.ApplicationArguments}

Name                 Value
----                 -----
Team                 IT
Use                  Testing
PSVersionTable       {CLRVersion, BuildVersion, PSVersion, WSManStackVersion...}

Invoke-Command -Session $s {
  if ($PSSenderInfo.ApplicationArguments.Use -ne "Testing") {
    .\logFiles.ps1
  }
  else {
    "Just testing."
  }
}

Just testing.

The first command creates a hash table with two keys, Team and Use. The command saves the hash table in the $team variable. For more information about hash tables, see about_Hash_Tables.

Next, the New-PSSessionOption cmdlet, using the ApplicationArguments parameter, creates a SessionOption object saved in the $team variable. When New-PSSessionOption creates the session option object, it automatically converts the hash table in the value of the ApplicationArguments parameter to a PrimitiveDictionary so the data can be reliably transmitted to the remote session.

The New-PSSession cmdlet starts a session on the Server01 computer. It uses the SessionOption parameter to include the options in the $teamOption variable.

The Invoke-Command cmdlet demonstrates that the data in the $team variable is available to commands in the remote session. The data appears in the ApplicationArguments property of the $PSSenderInfo automatic variable.

The final Invoke-Command shows how the data might be used.

Parameters

-ApplicationArguments

Specifies a PrimitiveDictionary that is sent to the remote session. Commands and scripts in the remote session, including startup scripts in the session configuration, can find this dictionary in the ApplicationArguments property of the $PSSenderInfo automatic variable. You can use this parameter to send data to the remote session.

For more information, see about_Hash_Tables, about_Session_Configurations, and about_Automatic_Variables.

Type:PSPrimitiveDictionary
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-CancelTimeout

Determines how long PowerShell waits for a cancel operation (CTRL+C) to finish before ending it. Enter a value in milliseconds.

The default value is 60000 (one minute). A value of 0 (zero) means no time-out; the command continues indefinitely.

Type:Int32
Aliases:CancelTimeoutMSec
Position:Named
Default value:60000
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-Culture

Specifies the culture to use for the session. Enter a culture name in <languagecode2>-<country/regioncode2> format (like ja-JP), a variable that contains a CultureInfo object, or a command that gets a CultureInfo object.

The default value is $Null, and the culture that is set in the operating system is used in the session.

Type:CultureInfo
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-IdleTimeout

Determines how long the session stays open if the remote computer does not receive any communication from the local computer. This includes the heartbeat signal. When the interval expires, the session closes.

The idle time-out value is of significant importance if you intend to disconnect and reconnect to a session. You can reconnect only if the session has not timed out.

Enter a value in milliseconds. The minimum value is 60000 (1 minute). The maximum is the value of the MaxIdleTimeoutms property of the session configuration. The default value, -1, does not set an idle time-out.

The session uses the idle time-out that is set in the session options, if any. If none is set (-1), the session uses the value of the IdleTimeoutMs property of the session configuration or the WSMan shell time-out value (WSMan:\<ComputerName>\Shell\IdleTimeout), whichever is shortest.

If the idle time-out set in the session options exceeds the value of the MaxIdleTimeoutMs property of the session configuration, the command to create a session fails.

The IdleTimeoutMs value of the default Microsoft.PowerShell session configuration is 7200000 milliseconds (2 hours). Its MaxIdleTimeoutMs value is 2147483647 milliseconds (>24 days). The default value of the WSMan shell idle time-out (WSMan:\<ComputerName>\Shell\IdleTimeout) is 7200000 milliseconds (2 hours).

The idle time-out value of a session can also be changed when disconnecting from a session or reconnecting to a session. For more information, see Disconnect-PSSession and Connect-PSSession.

In Windows PowerShell 2.0, the default value of the IdleTimeout parameter is 240000 (4 minutes).

Type:Int32
Aliases:IdleTimeoutMSec
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-IncludePortInSPN

Includes the port number in the Service Principal Name (SPN) used for Kerberos authentication, for example, HTTP://<ComputerName>:5985. This option allows a client that uses a non-default SPN to authenticate against a remote computer that uses Kerberos authentication.

The option is designed for enterprises where multiple services that support Kerberos authentication are running under different user accounts. For example, an IIS application that allows for Kerberos authentication can require the default SPN to be registered to a user account that differs from the computer account. In such cases, PowerShell remoting cannot use Kerberos to authenticate because it requires an SPN that is registered to the computer account. To resolve this problem, administrators can create different SPNs, such as by using Setspn.exe, that are registered to different user accounts and can distinguish between them by including the port number in the SPN.

For more information, see Setspn Overview.

This parameter was introduced in Windows PowerShell 3.0.

Type:SwitchParameter

Default value:209715200
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-MaximumRedirection

Determines how many times PowerShell redirects a connection to an alternate Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) before the connection fails. The default value is 5. A value of 0 (zero) prevents all redirection.

This option is used in the session only when the AllowRedirection parameter is used in the command that creates the session.

Type:Int32
Position:Named
Default value:5
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

Type:Int32
Aliases:OpenTimeoutMSec
Position:Named
Default value:180000 (3 minutes)
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-OperationTimeout

Determines the maximum time WinRM waits for positive connection tests from a live connection before initiating a connection time-out. For more information on WinRM, see the Windows Remote Management Documentation.

OperationTimeout does not impose a time limit on commands or processes running in a remote session and does not affect other remoting protocols like SSH.

The default value is 180000 (3 minutes). A value of 0 (zero) means no time-out.

Type:Int32
Aliases:OperationTimeoutMSec
Position:Named
Default value:180000 (3 minutes)
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-OutputBufferingMode

Determines how command output is managed in disconnected sessions when the output buffer becomes full.

If the output buffering mode is not set in the session or in the session configuration, the default value is Block. Users can also change the output buffering mode when disconnecting the session.

If you omit this parameter, the value of the OutputBufferingMode of the SessionOption object is None. A value of Block or Drop overrides the output buffering mode transport option set in the session configuration. The acceptable values for this parameter are:

Outputs

PSSessionOption

Notes

If the SessionOption parameter is not used in a command to create a PSSession, the session options are determined by the property values of the $PSSessionOption preference variable, if it is set. For more information about the $PSSessionOption variable, see about_Preference_Variables.

The properties of a session configuration object vary with the options set for the session configuration and the values of those options. Also, session configurations that use a session configuration file have additional properties.
