Set PowerShell "Plugin\Microsoft.PowerShell\Quotas\MaxMemoryPerShellMB" using Group Policy

  • 772

I want to apply the following PowerShell settings on many servers:

Set-Item WSMan:\localhost\Shell\MaxMemoryPerShellMB 12345
Set-Item WSMan:\localhost\Plugin\Microsoft.PowerShell\Quotas\MaxMemoryPerShellMB 12345

I found https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh751276(v=sc.12).aspx and tested that the Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Windows Remote Shell\Specify maximum amount of memory in MB per Shell setting changes localhost\Shell\MaxMemoryPerShellMB, but is there a way to change localhost\Plugin\Microsoft.PowerShell\Quotas\MaxMemoryPerShellMB ?

  1. You should be able to set the value on a test system using the PS commands you listed and then go into the registry to:

    HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WSMAN\Plugin\Microsoft.Powershell

    There find the key ConfigXML and copy the Value. Use this value in a GPO that sets Computer Configuration, Preferences, Registry.
