Some helpful Cmdlets: Get-HelpGet-Command $myObject | Get-Member

Assemblies and ClassesPowerShell is not just limited to Cmdlets • Create objects with New-Object $site = New-Object Microsoft.SharePoint.SPSite("http://tech.ed") • Load other SharePoint or .NET assemblies [System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName ("Microsoft.Office.Server.Search") [System.Reflection.Assembly]::Load ("Microsoft.Office.Server.Search, Version=14.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=71e9bce111e9429c") Deprecated

  21. Resources and Tips tips

  22. Script Tips • Use and save scripts – they can be reused, maintained, reused, reused… PS C:\TENZ11\PS> .\myscript.ps1 • Use variables – they make scripts easier to read and maintain $siteUrl = "http://intranet" • Use functions – pieces of logic in the script function Update-SiteTitle($site, $title) { $site.Title = $title $site.Update() } • Use comments # This explains what the script is doing which is helpful in the future • Tab Ahead - PowerShell lets you tab to complete pathname and input • Providing some output is helpful Write-Host “About to do stuff" vs. “About to do stuff" • Build and test your scripts incrementally. Not directly in production!

  23. Disposal TipsObject disposal is important to release memory • Easiest method is to useSPAssignment Start-SPAssignment -Global # Do stuff ... Stop-SPAssignment –Global • You can use.Dispose()to clean up after yourself$site = Get-SPSite http://intranet; $site.Usage; $site.Dispose() • Closing the PowerShell Console cleans up the session but it’s the lazy option

  24. Scripts Won’t Run?Usually it will be permissions • What’s your Execution Policy?Set-ExecutionPolicyRestricted | AllSigned | RemoteSigned| Unrestricted • Is UAC on? You may have to “Run as Administrator” • Does the account have rights on databases? Add-SPShellAdmin-UserNamedemo\SPUser-database SP2010_Content_TENZ

  25. Session TipsSome More Useful Cmdlets • Let the farm document itself usingExport-Clixmlhttp://bit.ly/psfarmdoc • UseOut-GridViewto output to a Grid UINeeds PowerShell ISE feature enabled (not on by default) • UseImport-CSVto read from CSV files. Great input to other “creation” Cmdlets likeNew-SPUserand New-SPWebhttp://bit.ly/psimportcsv
