  4. Agenda • Remoting • General PowerShell tricks for the SharePoint admin • Avoiding the Farm Configuration Wizard • PowerShell techniques for everyday SharePoint admins

  5. General PowerShell tips • It’s just a shell, spruce it up some • Color • Size • Run as Admin • Enable quick edit • Use the included ISE • Use a third party solution

  6. Remoting • Must be enabled on each server • Nothing much to do on the client • Two ways in • Enter-PSSession • Invoke-Command • Use Enable-PSRemoting to enable • Get-Help about_remoting • Watch out for security settings • Increase MaxMemoryPerShellMB

  7. Avoiding the Farm Config Wizard • The Farm Config Wizard does some very bad things • Wise SharePoint admins avoid it • Use PowerShell to replicate its functionality • Steps • Managed accounts • Web applications • MySite host • Service application pool (and an IISRESET) • State Service • Usage Service • Search • User Profile Service • The rest 

  8. Everyday tasks - Overview • Add-SPShellAdmin • Move-SPSite • Enable Developer Dashboard • Visual Upgrade • Troubleshooting • Master pages • Get database sizes

  9. Add-SPShellAdmin • Necessary for unprivileged accounts, since you’re not logging in as the Farm account, right? RIGHT?? • Must specify databases to give access to • Gives permissions to an account • WSS_Admin_WPG on SharePoint servers • SharePoint_Shell_Access role on database • To run it account must have: • Security_Admin role SQL instance • db_owner role on database • Local admin on SharePoint server

  10. Move-SPSite • Used to move Site Collections between content databases • Everything ‘mergecontentdbs’ can do, this can do better • Mostly done on the SQL side • Databases must be attached to the same web application, be on the same SQL instance, and have the same favorite color • Works great to get rid of Content databases with GUIDs

  11. Developer Dashboard • Can be enabled with STSADM, but that’s just embarrassing • More flexibility with PowerShell $dash = [Microsoft.SharePoint.Administration.SPWebService]::ContentService.DeveloperDashboardSettings; $dash.DisplayLevel = 'OnDemand'; $dash.TraceEnabled = $true; $dash.Update()

  12. Visual Upgrade • Can be used to rapidly check or change status $db = Get-SPContentDatabase WSS_Content_SharePoint_2007 $db.Sites | Get-SPWeb -limit all | ForEach-Object {$_.UIversion = 4; $_.UIVersionConfigurationEnabled = $false; $_.update()} • Or $db = Get-SPContentDatabase WSS_Content_SharePoint_2007 $db.Sites | foreach-object {$_.VisualUpgradeWebs}

  13. Troubleshooting • Use New-SPLogFile immediately before and right after recreating a problem • Use Merge-SPLogFiles to collect trace logs from all servers in your farm • Use Get-SPLogEvent to get events • Can filter by a number of properties, like Correlation ID • Can point at alternate directory Get-SPLogEvent -StartTime (Get-Date).addminutes(-10) –Directory e:\logs | Where-Object {$_.correlation -eq "dc07834b-9982-4eaf-aacf-d62a6b398f87"}

  14. Master Pages • Can be used to set the master page $web = Get-SPWeb http://sharepoint $web.CustomMasterUrl = "/_catalogs/masterpage/nightandday.master" $web.MasterUrl = "/_catalogs/masterpage/nightandday.master" $web.Update()

  15. Database Information • Use Get-SPDatabase to get list of databases and their properties Get-SPDatabase | Sort-Object disksizerequired -desc | Format-Table Name, @{Label ="Size in MB"; Expression = {$_.disksizerequired/1024/1024}} Get-SPDatabase | ForEach-Object {$db=0} {$db +=$_.disksizerequired; $_.name + " - " + $_.disksizerequired/1024/1024} {Write-Host "`nTotal Storage (in MB) =" ("{0:n0}" -f ($db/1024/1024))}
