Administer the deployment using Windows PowerShell

 

Applies To: Dynamics CRM 2013

Windows PowerShell enables you to easily run deployment commands to change the configuration of your deployment, such as tasks that can be performed by using the Deployment Manager user interface. You can also use the methods that are described in the Microsoft Dynamics CRM SDK to perform these tasks. The Windows PowerShell cmdlets are installed on the computer when you install a Full Server role or when you install the Deployment Tools server role, if you’re installing individual server roles. To execute commands, you must first configure Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2013 with Windows PowerShell. This topic describes how to do this and explains each of the supported commands. You can find all the organization database settings available in Get and set deployment configuration settings. For sample scripts, refer to the See Also links later in this topic.

Find help about the Windows PowerShell cmdlets for Microsoft Dynamics CRM at Microsoft Dynamics CRM PowerShell Reference.

For more information about Windows PowerShell, see Scripting with Windows PowerShell.

This release of the cmdlets includes the following improvements:

  • Remote execution of PowerShell scripts

  • Improved error reporting from cmdlets

  • Improved output from cmdlets

For more information about the programmatic use of the Deployment Web Service see “Administer the deployment using the deployment web service” in the Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2013 SDK.
