We are starting to rollout .net 4.5 on our production servers so seems as a well worth add on.<br />
There are a few servers that we cant because we have an old version of biztalk.<br />
<br />
But regardless, i still need to prepare a well defined argument to get upper mgmt to approve this change and the server reboots are a hard sell specially in health care.

<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
We have recently been given the green light to use Powershell.<br />
Most of our servers are running 2008 r2 and we want to use powershell cmdlets when possible vs wmi calls from powershell.<br />
But we need to configure WinRM on the target servers which many are production.<br />
Is there an impact, issue, pitfall to setting this up.<br />
I will have to make a very detailed request for this and need to have all my ducks in a row to field any questions or push back that may come.<br />
<br />
Any advise is greatly welcomed<br />
Thanking everyone in advance
