Display Session State Information

Solution: Use the Get-SPSessionStateService cmdlet.

The Get-SPSessionStateService cmdlet provides the current information regarding session state within your SharePoint farm. Execute the cmdlet with no parameters, as shown in Listing 18.4. If the Session State Service is enabled, the database information is displayed, as shown in Figure 18.1. If the Session State Service is not enabled, the database information is blank, as shown in Figure 18.2 (this is the default after installing a new farm).
