Send-RDUserMessage
Send-RDUserMessage
Sends a system message to a specified user session.
Syntax
Parameter Set: Default
Send-RDUserMessage [-HostServer] <String> [-UnifiedSessionID] <Int32> [-MessageTitle] <String> [-MessageBody] <String> [ <CommonParameters>]
Detailed Description
The Send-RDUserMessage cmdlet sends a system message to a specified user session. Because the user session ID is unique only within the context of a session host, a different session host server can share the same user session ID. The host server and session ID that you specify by using this cmdlet uniquely identify a session within a deployment.
Parameters
-HostServer<String>
Specifies the name of the server that hosts the session. For session collections the host server has the name of the Remote Desktop Session Host (RD Session Host) server. For virtual desktop collections the host server has the name of the Remote Desktop Virtualization Host (RD Virtualization Host) server.
