PowerShell Training: Automating Administration

Powershell Training assists you to understand and use Windows' new command-line shell developed especially for system administrators. The Windows PowerShell features an interactive prompt in addition to a scripting setting that you can use on their own or even in collaboration.

Unlike most shells, that recognize and return text, Windows PowerShell is built together with the .NET Framework common language runtime (CLR) as well as .NET Framework, and accepts and returns .NET Framework objects. This particular fundamental change in the environment adds completely innovative tools and methods for the administration and configuration of Windows.

Windows PowerShell presents the idea of a cmdlet (pronounced "command-let"), an easy, single-function command-line tool included in the shell. You can use every cmdlet separately, but their power is understood when these simple tools are used in combination to execute complex tasks. Windows PowerShell features more than one hundred basic core cmdlets, and you can generate your own cmdlets and share these with different users.

Just like a number of shells, Windows PowerShell provides you with access to the file system on the computer. Also, Windows PowerShell providers enable you to access additional data stores, for example the registry as well as the digital signature certificate stores, just as easily as you access the file system.
