[SOLVED] Test if powershell remoting is enabled

Test if powershell remoting is enabled

I have been looking and can't find specifically what I am looking for, I need a way that I can test about 900 machines and tell whether or not powershell remoting is enabled, I figured out that with the script below I can verify that powershell is installed but it doesn't check that it can actually remotely manage the machine, any ideas?

function Check-PSVersion
{

[CmdletBinding()]
Param (
    [Parameter(Mandatory = $true)]
    $ComputerName
)
if (Test-Path $ComputerName)
{
    $Computers = Get-Content $ComputerName
}
Else
{
    $Computers = $ComputerName
}

Foreach ($Computer in $Computers)
{
    Try
    {
        Write-Host "Checking Computer $Computer"
        $path = "\\$Computer\C$\windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe"
        if (test-path $path) { (ls $path).VersionInfo }
        else
        {
            Write-Host "Powershell isn't installed" -ForegroundColor 'Red'
        }
        Write-Host "Finished Checking Computer $Computer"
    }

    catch { }
}
}

Solution

You can use the Test-WSMan cmdlet to check whether the WinRM service is running on a remote computer.

[bool](Test-WSMan -ComputerName 'ComputerName' -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue)
