Command Line Admin in Essentials 2007

 

I am REALLY excited with the potential we see in SCE 2007 based on what we've seen with our work with the product in the lab.

But recently I was lamenting the absence of a Ops Mgr Command Shell equivalent for SCE, but definitely think it has a place in the platform. I have to believe that as field experience builds, we'll find those situations where it bridges a gap - say for scheduling maintenance mode for groups of servers, et.

As the saying goes, "it's better to light one candle than to curse the darkness".

To that end, Neale and I put a document together on how to tap the SDK to create your own SCE Command Shell. Pretty neat I think, but unsupported of course.

Also, I'd appreciate feedback and requests for a SCE Command Shell Part 2 document that we'll release in a few days.
