Deploy Remote Server Administration Tools

 

Applies To: Windows Server 2012, Windows Server 2012 R2

This topic supports both Remote Server Administration Tools for Windows® 8.1 and Remote Server Administration Tools for Windows® 8.

To help ease remote server management, you can download and install Remote Server Administration Tools. Remote Server Administration Tools includes Server Manager, Microsoft Management Console (MMC) snap-ins, consoles, Windows PowerShell® cmdlets and providers, and some command-line tools for managing roles and features that run on Windows Server.

Remote Server Administration Tools includes Windows PowerShell cmdlet modules that can be used to manage roles and features that are running on remote servers. Although Windows PowerShell remote management is enabled by default on Windows Server 2012 R2 and Windows Server 2012, it is not enabled by default on Windows 8.1 or Windows 8. To run cmdlets that are part of Remote Server Administration Tools against a remote server, run Enable-PSRemoting in a Windows PowerShell session that has been opened with elevated user rights (that is, Run as Administrator) on your Windows client computer after installing Remote Server Administration Tools.
