Agenda Introduction to Power. Shell …Within the Context of Management Power. Shell Goals and Themes Power. Shell 2. 0 GUI over Power. Shell (Demo) Production Scripting (Demo) Community Feedback Interlude - Power. Shell. Community. org Power. Shell 2. 0 (continued) Universal Automation Environment Demo – Compellent Technologies

Today’s IT Challenges Increasing demands from the business Reliance on technology for business-critical operations Always-available, anywhere Increasing complexity Adding capabilities adds management burden 80% of IT cost is managing existing systems Trends of the future magnify challenges Move to Datacenters – large scale, virtualization remote management Outsourcing – lower skilled, high turnover users

Windows Server 2008 R 2 Streamlined Management Scenarios Datacenter Automation Server Migration Rich Server Management • Power. Shell: Universal Code Execution Model, GUI over Power. Shell, Production Scripting • WMI: Discoverability through PS, Profile discovery, CIM update • WS-Man: Remote Shell, Support for hosted environments (Web proxy traversal, Federated Auth using Live ID), Hardware Management (out-of-band management in-band with OS), Resource management • BITS: Lightweight server • PS cmdlets across all! • • • Known fact: most customers do not perform in-place upgrade Migration is a complex problem – both from technical and process perspective WS 7 – pragmatic approach – focus on understanding the problem and building foundation Goal: consistent documentation across all roles, Stretch: scriptable solution for core roles Lays foundation for more complete and richer solution in the future Server Manager creates consistency and enables integration Goal: Further improve Server Manager, adding incremental value Key features: PS cmdlets to add/remove roles/features, remoting, Best Practice Analyzers Incubating next-gen UX – Active Directory User Management

Server Manager & Power. Shell Integration Server Manager Power. Shell Cmdlets: Get-Windows. Feature Add-Windows. Feature Remove-Windows. Feature Leverages Power. Shell features/reach Richer command line experience (auto-completion, wildcards, object pipeline, etc) Remoting Availability on Server Core
