Wait for command prompt - Enter-PSSession

Question

Enter-PSSession -ComputerName ServerName
Restart-Service DNS -PassThru
Exit-PSSession
I am trying to restart the DNS Server service on several remote machines using a foreach loop.  The problem is the the script does not wait until the command prompt shows up after executing the "Enter-PSSession -ComputerName ServerName". 
I have not been able to fine a way to tell the script to wait for the prompt before continuing the script.   Thank you for any assistance that can be provided.

Answer 1

You can use
Invoke-Command rather than entering a PS-Session.
Something like this may do what you need:
$servers = @("Server1.fqdn.example.com","Server2.fqdn.example.com","Server3.fqdn.example.com")
$scriptblock = "Restart-Service DNS"
foreach ($server in $servers) {
Invoke-Command -ScriptBlock $scriptblock -ComputerName $server
Replace the server names in $servers with your actual server names. This assumes of course you have PSRemoting enabled which you would need for the PSSessions.
