Powershell
6

The command line tool of choice for the SharePoint 2010 Administrator
Fully supported in SharePoint 2010
Two ways to join in on the fun

SharePoint Management Shell link
Add the SharePoint Snapin to an existing console

Everything STSADM could do, WindowsPowerShell can do better

Developer Dashboard
7

The developer dashboard is a useful component included with 2010
stsadm -o setproperty -pn developer-dashboard -pvOnDemand
Set-SPFarm -DeveloperDashboardEnabled
Can be used to monitor page load and performance
It has three states

On
Off
On demand

Health Analyzer
8

Uses Health Rules to alert in the case of problems
Rules are extensible
Run by timer jobs
Has an option to automatically repair
Umm Sharepoint Admin Kit v4.0 anyone?

Timer Jobs
9

Server Affinity
Run on demand
Progress bar

List throttling
10

Queries that return/touch large numberof list items may fail.
Thresholds are configurable through the Central Administration site.
Default 5.000 items per user 20.000 foradmin
Caveat: Need it to surface in Development

Test as a non-admin user
Use realistic data volumes in development and test servers

HTTP throttling
11

Check: Server CPU, Memory, Request in Queue, and Request Wait Time
Three strikes: go into http throttle
Gevolg:

HTTP GET geeft 503 error
