Anyone who has done Active Directory administration, especially in big environments, knows the benefits that can come from being able to work with automated processes. Windows PowerShell is a perfect companion for AD, which is why the AD cmdlets were some of the first to be developed. The ability to take complicated AD management processes and simplify them down to custom commands or restrict administration to just the tasks needed is very powerful. I should have seen it coming from the comment in the Introduction from the author that he was not trying to teach everything about AD or PowerShell. Unfortunately, this book really does neither subject well. I reads more like a manual for AD PowerShell cmdlets than a topic level book. At one point, the author lists 7 pages of parameters for a command. Certainly, that is the kind of thing is better referenced in a help file than listed verbatim in the book (especially since the list was probably outdated by the time the book shipped). In some cases, I think the help file for those cmdlets is actually more useful because of the number of examples provided.The book is divided into chapters based on AD technologies (promoting DCs, managing DNS, managing users, etc.), but only goes into the barest detail on how to do that, with minimal discussion on why you would want to do it or how PowerShell changes the game for long time AD admins. One of the previous reviewers mentioned not reading the book on a computer because you may be tempted to just copy and paste the PowerShell samples -- my opinion is that IS exactly what the book was designed for. The author even includes parameters in some examples that aren't necessary or don't work in the example context while pointing out that you can include them because "it won't hurt" and they may be valid in some cases. I personally don't think that AD PowerShell commands are the kind of thing that I want admins to run who don't understand how the command works or what the different options are doing.The scripts in the book are very basic and mostly just wrappers around oneliners. The best scripts that the author includes are actually from Ashley McGlone, a Premier Field Service Engineer at Microsoft who did an awesome series on PowerShell and AD at Microsoft Virtual Academy. THERE is a good series if you want to learn how PowerShell can be used to manage Active Directory.There was only one chapter on AD Cloud management, and that revolved mostly around getting connected to Azure to deploy a virtual machine with AD on it. There was no discussion of managing Azure AD or how a hybrid on-premise-Cloud AD solutions would work or what advantages or disadvantages there were. Azure AD is not the same thing as on premise AD. Any organization that is running Office 365 already has an Azure AD and that management becomes even more important in those cases.I wish this book had been more about how PowerShell can help with some of the issues that have been traditionally difficult for Active Directory management with the GUIs or providing automation solutions that make reporting or troubleshooting easier. Instead, it was a book for copy and paste admins -- a dangerous subject for that type of administration.I wanted to like this book because I think this is a topic that could be really powerful, but I would hesitate to recommend this book either because it wouldn't expend sufficiently on what is already available in the help files or it would provide just enough information to the dangerous.

By Paul Richwine Everything in the Microsoft flavored sysadmin world is going Powershell, so if you're still a click-Next admin you're not being as productive as you could be (paraphrased from Jeffery Snover).The title of this book was right up my alley: I am on the AD admin team of a large enterprise, and I use Powershell for many of my daily tasks. Although I've been using posh for nearly 2 years I still have a lot of room to improve. I try to read Powershell books on the weekends so I was glad when this title arrived. But I must admit to being a little disappointed once I started reading. This is not a book to "take you to the next level" but it is a thorough tour of most of the tasks of AD admin using Powershell.I can see two audiences for this book: 1. Admins new to Powershell who want to follow along with a very knowledgeable instructor as they demonstrate the steps needed to build an AD infrastructure from the ground up. This is exactly what this book accomplishes; in fact I believe it was written step by step as the author built a home lab using almost nothing but Powershell. The problem for this green audience is that many things are assumed - for example there are a few custom cmdlets that appear with sparse explanation. 2. The other audience is made up of sysadmins who are more experienced but may not work in AD with Powershell often enough to internalize all of the commands and syntax and need a reference full of examples. I can see many admins copy-pasting from this book into the Powershell IDE - and there's nothing wrong with that, as long as it's a learning experience.As for me, I am more in the second audience and will keep this book on hand as a reference. But for my fellow admins looking for an introduction to AD administration with Powershell, this will leave some knowledge gaps that you will have to fill elsewhere. Maybe that isn't such a bad thing, as it should cause you to want to learn even more.

Book to follow by "try yourself examples" By vidockq Deploying and Managing Active Directory with Windows PowerShellFor the ease of view I have split this review it into several different parts.• Intro• Target audience• Book content• ConclusionIntro:I am a system administrator working with mainly Microsoft Products, and as such I keep an eye out for most IT blogs out there. When I say that a new book was released by Charlie Russel I immediately took the opportunity to review it.For those who do not know who Charlie Russel is you can get more information about him here:(...)(...)http://www.amazon.com/Charlie-Russel/e/B001IGNJLM(...)Needless to say he has been 12 years MVP at Microsoft and wrote a lot of books I used to start on my career to become a System Administrator.Target audience:Who is this book for? Should I buy this book?I will be straight here, this book absolutely requires you to have Medium Knowledge of AD (Active Directory) and Beginner knowledge of Powershell. (More on this in Book content)This book is absolutely perfect if you started using PowerShell or plan to start using it and want to delve deep into managing AD using the command line.Book ContentThis whole book is a “do yourself” example. You should be aware that the book has no information regarding how to set up your environment and goes on the premises that you have the know-how to set your own virtual test laboratory and get working on the examples from the book.Even when you get an information on the test laboratory it is never in-depth, so take that into account.Like I said this book requires Medium knowledge in the field of AD (Active Directory), this is because the book is structured on a basic schema:1. Task to do2. Short Explanation of “Task” Role3. Example doing the task using GUI (optional)4. Example of doing the task using Powershell5. Example of Powershell in a more “friendly” manner (basically same Powershell command/script written in a more readable way)Thus it will never go into deep dives regarding AD or Powersheel, but instead it will give you a short information about it and what it goes on a global level and then gives you an example to follow.ConclusionThe book is 257 pages long (short read), and it’s definitely a book to go throw by “trial by fire”; meaning that it’s best to get it on paperback or on your kindle/tablet and not on your PC, so you will not be tempted to just copy-paste the commands/scripts.This is best because you want to have your Lab set-up and actually do and write all the Powershell commands and script there yourself. If you’re new to Powershell this will help you a lot, since it’s so unforgiving on the syntax used, you will get a lot of errors but throw that practice you will get the hang of it and become better proficient in it.Thus I would recommend this book to anyone that is currently working with AD and wants to explore Powershell and leave the GUI behind.I would have liked if the authors of books like this would actually include a tutorial on how to set-up your test environment, this would help a lot more people to go into books like this and try them.3/5 starts.
