    ————————– EXAMPLE 1 ————————–

    C:\PS>Enter-PSSession -computername Server01

    Server01\PS> Exit-PSSession

    C:\PS>

    Description
    ———–
    These commands start and then stop an interactive session with the Server01 remote computer.

    ————————– EXAMPLE 2 ————————–

    C:\PS> Enter-PSSession -session $s

    Server01\PS> Exit-PSSession

    C:\PS> $s

    Id Name            ComputerName    State    ConfigurationName
    — —-            ————    —–    —————–
    1 Session1        Server01        Opened Microsoft.PowerShell

    Description
    ———–
    These commands start and stop an interactive session with the Server01 computer that uses a Windows PowerShell session (PSSession).

    Because the interactive session was started by using a Windows PowerShell session (PSSession), the PSSession is still available when the interactive session ends. If you use the ComputerName parameter, Enter-PSSession creates a temporary session that it closes when the interactive session ends.

    The first command uses the New-PSSession cmdlet to create a PSSession on the Server01 computer. The command saves the PSSession in the $s Variable.

    The second command uses the Enter-PSSession cmdlet to start an interactive session using the PSSession in $s.

    The third command uses the Exit-PSSession cmdlet to stop the interactive session.

    The final command displays the PSSession in the $s Variable. The State property shows the PSSession is still open and available for use.

    ————————– EXAMPLE 3 ————————–

    C:\PS>Enter-PSSession -computername Server01

    Server01\PS> exit

    C:\PS>

    Description
    ———–
    This command uses the Exit keyword to stop an interactive session started by using the Enter-PSSession cmdlet. The Exit keyword has the same effect as using Exit-PSSession.
