How to Force Log In To Remote Desktop Computer When The Session is Already Full

Use the below command in Run

mstsc /v:[SERVERNAME] /admin

That should force you into the server if the session is full.


No content databases in the web application were available to store your site collection

Recently I had tried deleting a site collection and tried restoring the site with the same URL and I got the below error

Restore-SPSite https://sitecollectionurl -Path "E:\filename.bak" -Force

“ Restore-SpSite : The operation that you are attempting to perform cannot be completed successfully. No content databases in the web application were available to store your site collection. The existing content databases may have reached the maximum number of site collections, or be set to read-only, or be offline, or may already contain a copy of this site collection. Create another content database for the Web application and then try the operation again “


How to fix this

Restore-SPSite https://sitecollectionurl -Path "E:\filename.bak" -Force –DatabaseServer "DBServerName" -DatabaseName "DBName"

And it worked this time. Site was successfully restored.
This happened because I was trying to restore or create a new site with the same url that was deleted some time back. There is a chance it has not been removed from the database permanently

Alternatively, to delete the old site, do the below steps

Get-SPDeletedSite

If the site exist with the same URL remove using

Remove-SPDeletedSite -Identity
