Connect-PSSession

Short description
Reconnects to disconnected sessions

Syntax


Description
The Connect-PSSession cmdlet reconnects to user-managed Windows PowerShell sessions ("PSSessions") that were disconnect
ed. It works on sessions that are disconnected intentionally, such as by using the Disconnect-PSSession cmdlet or the I
nDisconnectedSession parameter of the Invoke-Command cmdlet, and those that were disconnected unintentionally, such as 
by a temporary network outage.


Connect-PSSession can connect to any disconnected session that was started by the same user, including those that were 
started by or disconnected from other sessions on other computers.


However, Connect-PSSession cannot connect to broken or closed sessions, or interactive sessions started by using the En
ter-PSSession cmdlet. Also you cannot connect sessions to sessions started by other users, unless you can provide the c
redentials of the user who created the session.


For more information about the Disconnected Sessions feature, see about_Remote_Disconnected_Sessions.


This cmdlet is introduced in Windows PowerShell 3.0.
