How Windows 2008 R2 can help
How can Windows 2008 R2 help achieve all this:
ServerManagerCMD
PowerShell
WinRM
WinRS

WinRM
Management “despite” of firewalls
Windows Remote Management
Implementation of WS-Management protocol
Based on HTTP/HTTPS connectivity
Security
Kerberos and SSL
Extend to web with NTLM/Basic

Working with WinRM
Domain members can just connect
For workgroup scenarios the client must trust the target system. On the client run:
winrm set winrm/config/client @{TrustedHosts="servername1,"servername2"}
View the settings using
Winrm get winrm/config/client

WinRS
Remote Shell over WinRM
Commands are sent over network and executed locally
Command line tool does not need to be server or network aware
WinRS <Server> <Command>
WinRS + ServerManagerCMD is your friend
Allows you to create scripts that execute remote commands
Examples:
WinRS -r:myserver netdom join myserver /domain:testdomain /userd:administrator /passwordd:<password>
WinRS -r:myserver cscript c:myscipt.vbs

Physical and virtual servers should really be treated as equals
Current technologies can enable us to respond to malfunctions, not only to know about them
System Center has the best tools for managing our whole environment
