ConnectorTypePS

class connector_types.connector_type_ps.ConnectorTypePS

Access a Windows Remote Management (WinRM) service.

This connector type enables you to interact with a Windows Remote Management (WinRM) service. See Windows Remote Management for information about WinRM.

note

Cancelling an active execution created by a PS connector might not be possible if the third party system, that is running the script, doesn't respond. In this case Cloudomation Engine sends the signal to cancel the process on the third party system but as long as the script is running on said system, the execution status will be shown a running in Engine. To cancel the execution you have to kill the process directly in the non-responsive system.
