Windows Distributed Copy and Execute

July 14, 2009 in Scripting by Rod | No comments

A customer requested to have a a quick and dirty script copied from d:\scripts to c:\temp and executed across a few hundred XP boxes ( not a cluster in this case ). Just in case you are looking to do this:

For %%a in (10.2.0.1 10.2.0.2 10.2.03) do start Robocopy d:\scripts\ \\%%a\C$\temp /e
psexec @hostlist c:\temp\doit.bat

WinRM – Remote Execution in PowerShell 2.0

July 5, 2009 in PowerShell by Rod | No comments

I found that WinRM limits the number of concurrent shells while developing some PowerShell tools that connect around to a bunch servers in parallel. You may get an error like:

“Connecting to remote server failed with the following error message : The WS-Management service cannot process the request. This user is allowed a maximum number of 4 concurrent shells, which has been exceeded. Close existing shells or raise the quota for this user.”

This is how to configure and override the default of 5:

PSH>winrm quickconfig
PSH>winrm get winrm/config
PSH>winrm set winrm/config/winrs `@`{MaxShellsPerUser=`”50`”`}
