multithreading using PowerShell

Question

Using powershell can we run something in form of threads?

Actually what I'm doing is connecting to multiple servers & reading a few properties. Connecting to them in sequence causes much wait which can be avoided if I can create threads which will then connect to the individual machines & domp their answers to a centralised location in the end.

So can we do this in PS I know its possible in VB.


And sorry if I posted this in the wrong list - I cant find one for PS specific...

Hi yup,
As far as I know, SQLPS is only a powershell provider provide by SQL Server. It do not extend the capability for powershell. I am not sure how powershell deal with multithread issue. You can find more information for powershell at this fourm:http://social.technet.microsoft.com/forums/en-US/winserverpowershell/threads/
