Server Core feedback

This post is going to be slightly different then my previous postings. Last week I was at ITForum presenting on Server Core. Towards the end of the week I also had a ChalkTalk/Q&A session where I answered questions as well as collected feedback on Server Core. I’m going to post my notes and ask that anyone with feedback around the areas we discussed or others, please comment on this posting.

Additional roles and features:

  • IIS – Network Load Balancing also must be included
  • PowerShell
  • .Net Framework support for PowerShell and ASP.NET for IIS
  • Certificate Server

Documentation

  • A centralized help list for all of the command line tools
  • More examples in the step by step guide for:
    • Remote management
    • Scripting examples

Other

  • A gui tool that runs on Server or Vista that can build scripts for role and feature installation and configuration – The WAIK can build unattend files for this purpose, but not a post install script.
  • MCP for Server Core

As I’m sure some of you are aware from other postings, the TechNet Forums, etc, we won’t be able to do all of the above for the Longhorn release. However, this also helps us plan our efforts for feature releases, ensuring we focus on what you want supported on Server Core.

Let the discussion begin.....

    Tom The current certification plans do not distinguish server core as an exam. The tasks while implemented differently are very much the same. I don't think cert wanted to get a memorize switches exam. That said there are a few gottyas that are worth calling out in exams (say dcpromo) but not necessarily warrant an exam of its own. This is my interpretation of certs strategy but I will point someone from that team to this post.

    The MCP idea makes sense. I'm also wondering about more features to attract disenfranchised UNIX administrators - like me. Tom Adelstein
