Establish a Remote Session to the AdminStudio Machine

AdminStudio 2025 | 29.0 | AdminStudio PowerShell Cmdlets

Powershell cmdlets are enabled with AdminStudio Enterprise Edition and with Workflow Manager.

To establish a remote session with a machine that has AdminStudio installed, perform the following configuration steps as mentioned below. These instructions need to be performed on both the AdminStudio-installed machine and the machine initiating the remote session.

To establish a remote session:

  1. Enable PS remoting in both machines (AdminStudio-installed machine and the machine initiating the remote session) by running following cmd:
    • Enable-PSRemoting -Force
  2. Machines should be added to trusted list of VM's to establish connection between remote VM and AdminStudio Installed VM.
    • Set-Item wsman:\localhost\client\trustedhosts *(Provide IP address of the VM)
    • Example: Set-Item wsman:\localhost\client\trustedhosts "00.00.000.000"
  3. Restart the WinRM service.
    • Restart-Service WinRM
  4. After setting up the Win RM connections, User need to establish remote connection to the AdminStudio VM to run the cmdlets.
    • While establishing remote connection we need to add the -ConfigurationName Microsoft.PowerShell32, as AdminStudio dll's are 32-bit configurations.

Sample:

Function Create_RemotePSSession($HostName,$UserName,$Password)

\{

$cred = New-Object System.Management.Automation.PSCredential -ArgumentList @($username,(ConvertTo-SecureString -String $password -AsPlainText -Force))

$Session=New-PSSession -ComputerName $HostName -Credential $cred -ConfigurationName Microsoft.PowerShell32

$session

}
