stsadmWin 2007 is here

One of the most frequently used utilities in SharePoint (2007 as well as 2003) is STSADM.

Although highly improved in 2007, it maintains backward compatible with 2003 syntax.

As STSADM is a command line utility, and the command-line is somewhat limited compared to Windows GUI, especially when it comes to non-English usage, there is a room for GUIs like stsadmWin (STSADM for Windows).

How stsadmWin works?

stsadmWin reads a list of commands from an XML file (namely: operations.xml), and displays a combo with the operations, denoting mandatory and optional parameters, and linking to the utility’s help.

The above download includes an XML file with SharePoint 2003 operations.

An XML file for MOSS 2007 RTM is attached by the end of this post (in stsadmWin.zip ).

Help information

stsadmWin displays help for the selected operation in the 2003 version.

This feature is currently not available in the 2007 version.

To get more information on STSADM 2007 see:

 * Stsadm command-line tool (Office SharePoint Server)

 * Stsadm command-line tool (Windows SharePoint Services)

 * Complete reference of all STSADM operations (with parameters) in MOSS 2007

 * Run STSADM /? -or- STSADM –help <OPERATION>

To get a list of stsadm commands grouped by function - see Ian Morrish's WSS Demo .
The list is updated to SP1 and even indicates if a command is unique to stsadm or if there is a Central Admin/SSP equivalent.

stsadmWin extensibility

Unlike the 2003 version, STSADM in 2007 is extensible. Meaning: you may get newer commands (operations) available as you add components to your environment.

To generate an XML file that suites your environment – you can use the GetOperations utility (also attached by the end of this post - in stsadmWin.zip).

Note: it is advisable to backup existing XML before generating an updated version …

A note on the generated XML:

 * A couple of operations may be generated with wrong syntax.

 * The ones I currently know about are: osearch and profilechangelog.

 * An updated syntax will be available in operationsUpdate.xml, which is referenced below.

 * You will only need this update when you re-generate operations.xml. In this case - you have to update operations.xml with the content of operationsUpdate.xml .

 * The operations.xml files that are referenced below - already include the correct syntax.

Download

    Thank you very much! The help file for 2007 would really be a fine thing .. ;-) I try to figure out what the option -preparetomove means and does, because i got an error message after restore a content db from a different server, and the message hints: Use stsadm -o preparetomove with parameter -OldContentDB <uniqueidentifier> But no hint from where to get this guid. OK, i fixed it with SQL profile which showed me which table the command touches, so I found out what was wrong. But still wonder, what preparetomove does and how? Because I want to move sites from one db to another, and maybe that is possible with that ...

    I tried this on 2010 and it seems pretty good.   Most of the STSADM syntax is about the same, operations.xml might need a few tweaks.    Was there a way to auto-discover?   Maybe post a new XML for SharePoint 2010?

    This app is so cool, very useful,  just one thing: could you add it a file browser to select the file for operations that need a .wsp like -addsolution ?.  Congratulations! Excelent Job!
