Description: Test-WSMan is a Windows PowerShell cmdlet used to check if the WSMan (Windows Remote Management) service is active and running on a remote machine. This cmdlet is essential for remote system administration, as it allows system administrators to ensure that the necessary infrastructure for remote management is available before attempting other operations. When executing Test-WSMan, a connection is established with the WSMan service on the specified machine, providing information about the service’s availability and configuration. If the service is running, the cmdlet returns details about the service version and other relevant parameters. Otherwise, an error is generated indicating that the service is unavailable. This cmdlet is particularly useful in environments where multiple servers are managed, as it allows administrators to efficiently diagnose connectivity and configuration issues. Additionally, Test-WSMan is part of the management tool suite, making it a valuable resource for automating tasks and implementing remote management scripts.
