Connect-PSSession

Short description
Reconnects to disconnected sessions

Syntax


Description
The Connect-PSSession cmdlet reconnects to user-managed Windows PowerShell sessions ("PSSessions") that were 
disconnected. It works on sessions that are disconnected intentionally, such as by using the Disconnect-PSSession 
cmdlet or the InDisconnectedSession 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 
Enter-PSSession cmdlet. Also you cannot connect sessions to sessions started by other users, unless you can provide 
the credentials 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.
