PowerShell goes to work
I was working this past weekend. PowerShell saved me lots of time and effort for instance:
- use the Quest cmdlets to move subnets between sites. One by hand isn’t too bad but by the time you have tens of the things it gets tedious.
- moving DCs between sites
- checking replication is working properly & forcing a replication so I can test (both those scripts are in my book)
- checking the contents of GPOs
- adding accounts to AD & local groups
- etc
The more you use it the more you find to do with it – I haven’t quite got to the point of 2+2 in PowerShell but its only a matter of time ;-)
