Deletion of a session does not delete the subconnections (Powershell)

Hello,

When we want to delete an entry that has sub entries, we need to first get the list of the sub entries, delete them and finally delete the parent.

The following sample should list all sub entries.

$parent = Get-RDMSession -Name '<Parent entry name>'
$subEntries = Get-RDMSession | Where-Object { $_.ParentID -eq $parent.ID}

Let us know if that helps.

Best regards,

Hello all

Okay, I wasn't aware of that. I thought that if I remove the parent, the child connections will also be deleted because they disappear in RDM. Now I am running a cleanup script that has already deleted more than 3000 lost child sessions.
Could you please at least update the PowerShell documentation for the Remove-RDMSession function with a warning that the subconnections will not be deleted when the parent is removed?

Thank you for your response and I will update my script accordingly.

Best regards

Hello,

I will ask the engineering team to add that information in the Remove-RDMSession cmdlet help documentation.

Let us know if you have further questions about this.

Best regards,

Hello,

Our engineering will fix the Remove-RDMSession cmdlet to also delete the children entries at the same time.

Once the fix will be available, we will post it here.

Thank you for your patience.

Hello,

The new Devolutions.PowerShell module version 2023.2.0.6 contains a fix so when using the Remove-RDMSession, it will also delete its sub entries.

Let us know if that works as expected on your end.

Best regards,
