Server Requirements

Open a Windows PowerShell session as administrator.

Configure the station to receive remote commands:
```
Enable-PSRemoting –Force
```
Enable Credential Security Service Provider (CREDSSP) authentication on the local server:
```
Enable-WSManCredSSP –Role Server
```
Increase the maximum number of PS shells per user to 25:
```
winrm set winrm/config/winrs '@{MaxShellsPerUser="25"}'
```

Increase the max memory per shell to 600MB:

winrm set winrm/config/winrs '@{MaxMemoryPerShellMB="600"}'

Return all users who have the SharePoint_Shell_Access role:
```
Get-SPShellAdmin
```
If the desired user is not listed, you can add a specified service account to the SharePoint_Shell_Access role for a given database:

Replace Domain\Username with the desired user and ContentDatabaseName with the desired content database.
```
Enter Add-SPShellAdmin -UserName Domain\Username -Database (Get-SPContentDatabase -Identity “ContentDatabaseName”)  
```
You will need to run this command for all content databases for the user(s) who need access.
To grant access to all Content Databases:
```
Get-SPDatabase | Add-SPShellAdmin DOMAIN\UserName
```
Return all users who have the SharePoint_Shell_Access role and confirm the desired user is now listed:
```
Get-SPShellAdmin
```

Open the permissions dialog box and enter:

 Set-PSSessionConfiguration -Name Microsoft.PowerShell32 –ShowSecurityDescriptorUI

Add the desired user(s) and ensure they have Read and Execute permissions.
Click OK to save the changes.
Once the server requirements have been met, please review the Client Requirements.
