Invoke-RDUserLogoff

  • Reference
Module:
RemoteDesktop

Ends a user session and closes all running applications.

Syntax

Invoke-RDUserLogoff
      [-HostServer] <String>
      [-UnifiedSessionID] <Int32>
      [-Force]
      [<CommonParameters>]

Description

The Invoke-RDUserLogoff cmdlet ends a user session and closes any running applications.

To end a session without closing applications use the Disconnect-RDUser cmdlet.

To get the ID for the user session that you are ending, use the Get-RDUserSession cmdlet. Because the user session ID is unique only within the context of a session host, a different session within a deploymenthost server can share the same user session ID. The host server and session ID that you specify in this cmdlet uniquely identify a session within a deployment.

Examples

Example 1: End a session connected to an RD Session Host server

PS C:\> Invoke-RDUserLogoff -HostServer "rdsh-1.contoso.com" -UnifiedSessionID 2

This command ends the user session that has the ID 2, which is connected to the host server named rdsh-1.contoso.com.

Example 2: End a session connected to an RD Virtualization Host server

PS C:\> Invoke-RDUserLogoff -HostServer "rdvh-1.contoso.com" -UnifiedSessionID 14 -Force

This command ends the user session that has the ID 14, which is connected to the virtualization host server named rdvh-1.contoso.com. Because the command includes the Force parameter, it ends the session without prompting for user confirmation.

Parameters

-Force

Forces the command to run without asking for user confirmation.
