Description
Learning PowerShell for Windows Server Administration. This course is designed to provide entry-level system administrators with the essential skills to manage Windows servers using Microsoft PowerShell. Professor Robert McMillen teaches the fundamentals of working with PowerShell to manage users and objects in a variety of environments, including on-premises infrastructure and cloud platforms. A key part of this course is the introduction and use of the Copilot tool, which uses artificial intelligence to automate the process of creating scripts to facilitate learning for novices. Participants will learn a wide range of techniques that are essential for any Windows system administrator, including how to perform system upgrades, customize the workspace, establish remote connections to other servers, and implement security settings for the PowerShell pipeline. Working with management modules to perform routine tasks, and effectively using cmdlets, functions, and scripts to automate administrative operations are also covered. This course is structured in such a way that by the end of it, learners will have the ability to use the power of PowerShell to improve the efficiency and automate the management of their Windows infrastructure.
