PowerShell & System Center

Windows PowerShell In "Virtual" Action

In my previous blog, I mentioned that Microsoft Virtulization is script extensible using PowerShell, I didn’t give the full picture. Actually PowerShell is the cornerstone features of System Center Virtual Machine Manager (SCVMM). All functions of the SCVMM Admin Console are built on PowerShell the same way as that Exchange 2007 did. It contains >130 task-oriented Cmdlets which provided a very user approachable scripting experience.

Here is an example:

Get-VM-VMMServer Server1 | Select name, processortype, memory

In case you want to dig deeper, you can find more information at

Windows PowerShell Virtual Machine Manager Cmdlet Reference

Looks like the PowerShell train is left the station and in full speed!
