SharePoint 2010 – Basic Powershell configuration script

  • Article

Here is a very basic script that will configure a barebones SharePoint 2010 farm. This isn’t designed for a production ready environment, but is great for a test lab and if you need to get something up and running very quickly.

I am in the process of building something more enterprise ready and bulletproof..so watch this space :-)

Fill in the appropriate servers, passwords to suit your environment. The script has been tested in both AD and non-AD connected environments. For Non-AD environments, you will need to logon as the FarmAdminAccount otherwise you will experience access denied errors.

TIP: Ensure that the powershell execution policy is set to unrestricted using the Powershell command – Set-ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted

Here is the script:

$username="SERVER\FarmAdminAccount"
$PWD="password"
$DBServer="SQLServer"
$password=convertto-securestring $PWD -asplaintext -force
$passphrase = convertto-securestring $PWD -asplaintext -force
$FarmAdminCredentials = New-Object System.Management.Automation.PSCredential $username, $password

Write-Host "Creating the configuration database"
New-SPConfigurationDatabase -DatabaseServer $DBServer -DatabaseName SharePoint_Config -Passphrase $passphrase -FarmCredentials $FarmAdminCredentials -AdministrationContentDatabaseName "Admin_Content_DB"

Write-Host "Installing the help collection"
Install-SPHelpCollection -All

Write-Host "Setting the security"

Write-Host "Installing the Services"
