Windows Server remote server admin tools
I added the RSAT tools using the server manager module
PS> Get-Command -Module servermanager
CommandType Name
----------- ----
Alias Add-WindowsFeature
Alias Remove-WindowsFeature
Cmdlet Get-WindowsFeature
Cmdlet Install-WindowsFeature
Cmdlet Uninstall-WindowsFeature
Notice the name changes Add/Remove are now aliases with the cmdlets as install/uninstall
Use
Install-WindowsFeature -Name RSAT -IncludeAllSubFeature –Restart
to force the restart.
PowerShell needs to be running as an elevated shell to add features
The server needs a reboot before the tools are available for use
These modules are added
ADDSDeployment
RemoteAccess
WebAdministration
DnsServer
ADRMSAdmin
DFSN
GroupPolicy
NFS
Hyper-V
DhcpServer
BitLocker
ActiveDirectory
NetworkLoadBalancingClusters
PS> Get-DnsServer -ComputerName server02 | select -ExpandProperty ServerZone
ZoneName ZoneType IsAutoCreated IsDsIntegrated IsReverseLookupZone IsSigned
-------- -------- ------------- -------------- ------------------- --------
_msdcs.Manticore.org Primary False True False False
0.in-addr.arpa Primary True False True False
127.in-addr.arpa Primary True False True False
255.in-addr.arpa Primary True False True False
54.10.10.in-addr.arpa Primary False True True False
Manticore.org Primary False True False False
TrustAnchors Primary False True False False
This working against my Win 2008 R2 DNS server – cool
And DHCP
Get-DhcpServerv4Scope -ComputerName server02
And Hyper-V
Get-VMHost -ComputerName server02
and AD
Get-ADDomainController
All of these work against my Win 2008 R2 domain
There is a mass to dig through here
