Ebook: Windows PowerShell 2.0. Best Practices + Code

Microsoft Press, 2010. - 716 p. - ISBN 0735626464, 978-0735626461Windows PowerShell 2.0 Best Practices is aimed at experienced IT professionals including IT architects, engineers, administrators, and support professionals who are working in large organizations and in the enterprise. IT pros who work in smaller companies would also benefit from most of the guidelines concerning the structuring of code, many of the tips and tricks, and much of the how to sections regarding common everyday problems. The audience is expected to have obtained the level of Windows PowerShell understanding presented in Microsoft Windows PowerShell Step by Step (Microsoft Press, 2007). The audience is assumed to know and understand the basics of Windows PowerShell: fundamental looping constructs, basic decision-making code blocks, and a rudimentary understanding of the use of cmdlets, which is the type of information they would obtain in a three-day class. In this book, there are two level-setting chapters as well as references back to topics covered in more detail in Microsoft Windows PowerShell Step by Step. This book is a 300-level book, but the planning and managing section will be very useful to IT managers seeking guidance on establishing scripting procedures for an enterprise organization.
