Upgrading many CloudMigrator servers can be a time-consuming process. This can be streamlined by making using of PowerShell and WinRM whereby multiple servers can be upgraded remotely without even needing to log onto the server.
The following PowerShell script can be used to perform a remote upgrade of a server. How to call the script is detailed in the comments at the top of the script.
