I needed to copy the same file to multiple machines so I tried this:
$computers = ‘W16CN01’, ‘W16CN02’
$s = New-PSSession -ComputerName $computers
Copy-Item -Path ‘C:SourceWindows 2016 TP5Cumulative Update for Windows Server 2016 Technical Preview 5 (KB3163016)AMD64-all-windows10.0-kb3163016-x64_83d6e9bca94a64a5d9be3d81cdb182e540285848.msu’ -Destination C:Scripts -ToSession $s
Remove-PSSession –Session $s
It failed with:
Copy-Item : Cannot convert ‘System.Object[]’ to the type
‘System.Management.Automation.Runspaces.PSSession’ required by parameter
‘ToSession’. Specified method is not supported.
