OIS 6.3 / Orchestrator - Advanced Workflow & Best Practice Video Tutorial

  • 项目

Happy Friday Readers and Viewers! I thought it was time I present you with a collection of “Advanced Workflow & Best Practice” Video Tutorials. I realize that many of you may think the timing on this is strange, given that the public SC Orchestrator 2012 Beta is due to release TODAY. Rest assured, the topics in this tutorial transcend OIS 6.3. In fact, if you have read through the What to expect in the System Center Orchestrator Beta blog post, you know workflow design really does not change for SC Orchestrator 2012 (well of course for the new naming convention for most everything).

So barring my use of “Workflow” or “Policy” instead of “Runbook”, the content here should translate quite nicely!

FWIW – Included in this collection are 17 *NEW* Videos (over 3.25 hours of new content) , just for this Advanced Workflow & Best Practice Video Tutorial!

Enough talk, let us get to the topics:
