ConnectPSSessionCommand Class

Definition

Namespace:

Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands

Assembly:

System.Management.Automation.dll

Package:

System.Management.Automation v7.4.0

This cmdlet connects PS sessions (RemoteRunspaces) that are in the Disconnected state and returns those PS session objects in the Opened state. One or more session objects can be specified for connecting, or a remote computer name can be specified and in this case all disconnected remote runspaces found on the remote computer will be be connected and PSSession objects created on the local machine.

The cmdlet can be used in the following ways:

Connect a PS session object: > $session = New-PSSession serverName > Disconnect-PSSession $session > Connect-PSSession $session

Connect a PS session by name: > Connect-PSSession $session.Name

Connect a PS session by Id: > Connect-PSSession $session.Id

Connect a collection of PS session: > Get-PSSession | Connect-PSSession

Connect all disconnected PS sessions on a remote computer > Connect-PSSession serverName

Properties

AllowRedirection	The AllowRedirection parameter enables the implicit redirection functionality.
ApplicationName	This parameters specifies the appname which identifies the connection end point on the remote machine. If this parameter is not specified then the value specified in DEFAULTREMOTEAPPNAME will be used. If thats not specified as well, then "WSMAN" will be used
Authentication	Use basic authentication to authenticate the user.
CertificateThumbprint	Specifies the certificate thumbprint to be used to impersonate the user on the remote machine.
CommandOrigin	This property tells you if you were being invoked inside the runspace or if it was an external request. (Inherited from InternalCommand)
CommandRuntime	Holds the command runtime object for this command. This object controls what actually happens when a write is called. (Inherited from Cmdlet)
ComputerName	Computer names to connect to.
ConfigurationName	If this parameter is not specified then the value specified in the environment variable DEFAULTREMOTESHELLNAME will be used. If this is not set as well, then Microsoft.PowerShell is used.
ConnectionUri	A complete URI(s) specified for the remote computer and shell to connect to and create a runspace for.
ContainerId	Overriding to suppress this parameter
Credential	Specifies the credentials of the user to impersonate in the remote machine. If this parameter is not specified then the credentials of the current user process will be assumed.
CurrentPSTransaction	Gets an object that surfaces the current PowerShell transaction. When this object is disposed, PowerShell resets the active transaction. (Inherited from Cmdlet)
Events	Gets the event manager for the current runspace. (Inherited from PSCmdlet)
Host	Gets the host interaction APIs. (Inherited from PSCmdlet)
Id	Session Id of the remoterunspace info object. (Inherited from PSRunspaceCmdlet)
InstanceId	RemoteRunspaceId to retrieve corresponding PSSession object
InvokeCommand	Provides access to utility routines for executing scripts and creating script blocks. (Inherited from PSCmdlet)
InvokeProvider	Gets the instance of the provider interface APIs for the current runspace. (Inherited from PSCmdlet)
JobManager	Manager for JobSourceAdapters registered. (Inherited from PSCmdlet)
JobRepository	Repository for jobs. (Inherited from PSCmdlet)
MyInvocation	Contains information about the identity of this cmdlet and how it was invoked. (Inherited from PSCmdlet)
Name	Name of the remote runspaceinfo object
PagingParameters	If the cmdlet declares paging support (via SupportsPaging), then PagingParameters property contains arguments of the paging parameters. Otherwise PagingParameters property is null. (Inherited from PSCmdlet)
ParameterSetName	The name of the parameter set in effect. (Inherited from PSCmdlet)
Port	Port specifies the alternate port to be used in case the default ports are not used for the transport mechanism (port 80 for http and port 443 for useSSL)
Session	The PSSession object or objects to be connected.
SessionOption	Extended session options. Used in this cmdlet to set server disconnect options.
SessionState	Gets the instance of session state for the current runspace. (Inherited from PSCmdlet)
Stopping	Is this command stopping? (Inherited from Cmdlet)
ThrottleLimit	Allows the user of the cmdlet to specify a throttling value for throttling the number of remote operations that can be executed simultaneously.
UseSSL	This parameter suggests that the transport scheme to be used for remote connections is useSSL instead of the default http.Since there are only two possible transport schemes that are possible at this point, a SwitchParameter is being used to switch between the two.
VMId	Overriding to suppress this parameter
VMName	Overriding to suppress this parameter

Methods

ShouldContinue(String, String, Boolean, Boolean, Boolean)	Confirm an operation or grouping of operations with the user. This differs from ShouldProcess in that it is not affected by preference settings or command-line parameters, it always does the query. This variant offers Yes, No, YesToAll and NoToAll. (Inherited from Cmdlet)
ShouldContinue(String, String, Boolean, Boolean)	Confirm an operation or grouping of operations with the user. This differs from ShouldProcess in that it is not affected by preference settings or command-line parameters, it always does the query. This variant offers Yes, No, YesToAll and NoToAll. (Inherited from Cmdlet)
ShouldContinue(String, String)	Confirm an operation or grouping of operations with the user. This differs from ShouldProcess in that it is not affected by preference settings or command-line parameters, it always does the query. This variant only offers Yes/No, not YesToAll/NoToAll. (Inherited from Cmdlet)
ShouldProcess(String, String, String, ShouldProcessReason)	Confirm the operation with the user. Cmdlets which make changes (e.g. delete files, stop services etc.) should call ShouldProcess to give the user the opportunity to confirm that the operation should actually be performed. This variant allows the caller to specify the complete text describing the operation, rather than just the name and action. (Inherited from Cmdlet)
ShouldProcess(String, String, String)	Confirm the operation with the user. Cmdlets which make changes (e.g. delete files, stop services etc.) should call ShouldProcess to give the user the opportunity to confirm that the operation should actually be performed.
