POWERSHELL - HOW TO REBOOT THE SERVERS VIA POWERSHELL (IN DOMAIN)
We can reboot multiple servers from powershell at the same time. In my example, I will be rebooting 2 servers which are part of a domain from a single computer.
Please follow the below steps to perform the same:-
1) I have created a text file name Servers.txt which has the name of all the 2 servers and as an example, I am keeping it in C drive which will be restarted.
2) Now I have created a variable $vmlist and will store the contents of the file Servers.txt kept on the C Drive which has the names of the Servers which will be re-started. This needs to be done from power shell.
Note:- In my case, I am running from domain administrator account.
3) You can check the Content of the file Servers.txt by running the below command:-
Command:- echo $vmlist
4) Now to reboot the servers,type in the below command from one of the remote computers. In my example, I am doing it from the DC.
Command:- Restart-Computer –ComputerName $vmlist -Force -Verbose
5) Out of running the above command:-
