Summary<\/b>: Learn how to continue a script after a remote system restart by using Windows PowerShell.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Hey, I am configuring MPIO to automatically claim the iSCSI Bus Type, which requires a restart. However, I want to continue
           automating afterward, so how do I continue my script from that point?<\/p>\n

\"Hey, Introduced in Windows PowerShell 4.0, you can use Restart-Computer<\/b> with the Wait<\/b> and For<\/b> parameters.
           By default the Restart-Computer <\/b>cmdlet uses DCOM as the protocol to perform the restart, so if WSMan is your
           only management protocol, you’ll have to use the Protocol<\/b> parameter and specify WSMan<\/b> (as the following
           example illustrates). The Wait<\/b> parameter is used to “Wait<\/b>” “For<\/b>” “PowerShell<\/b>” to respond before continuing
           further in the script.<\/p>\n

Invoke-Command -ScriptBlock {Enable-MSDSMAutomaticClaim -BusType iSCSI} -ComputerName SVR01
Restart-Computer -Protocol WSMan -Wait -For PowerShell -ComputerName SVR01
<\/span>Invoke-Command -ScriptBlock {Set-Service -Name MSiSCSI -StartupType Automatic} -ComputerName SVR01<\/span><\/p>\n
