Call Remote Systems using Windows Powershell

Powershell for Remote Systems

Windows Powershell is a good component in the windows system. We can use powershell to call a remote system to execute a application without interfere the remote system. It is more secure and flexible.

How do connect a Remote PC using Powershell?

We need an IP, UserID and Password for the remote PC also install Powershell in local PC.

Start a Powershell with Administrator privileges option. Select a Powershell option in the windows and right click it. There is an option for Administrator privileges.

Type the following commands in the powershell prompt.

get-service winrm

Enable-PSRemoting -force

You need to add a trusted hosts(Remote Hosts) in the powershell.

winrm s winrm/config/client '@{TrustedHosts="192.168.0.49"}'

Here 192.168.0.49 is an IP address for remote host.

$s=new-PSSession -Computername 192.168.0.49 -Credential Administrator

Then windows system Login wizard appeared, it shows the Login ID and Password text boxes. Provide the correct credentials in the wizard.

Type the command

Enter-PSSession $s

Now it shows remote login command prompt, you can change the directory, start /stop services and applications.

Here I start remote application job using the following commands.

Add-PSSnapin VeeamPSSnapin

$job=get-VBRJob | where {_.Name -eq "Backup Job 4"}

Start-VBRJob -Job $job

It start the job and return the results.

If you want to set the timeout for certain period.

Start-sleep 60

Here 60 is 60 seconds.

It is written in 100% Pure Java, and thus can be run on any platform with none or minimal changes. Any and every part of the report is customizable using the API.
