Questions

How many products make up System Center 2012 R2?Answer: 1How long does it take to deploy System Center 2012

R2?

Answer: Too long!

How many "screens" does an installation take including prerequisites and SQL Server?

Answer: I lost count somewhere around 500

How many post-setup integration tasks are there

?

Answer

: What on earth is post-setup integration?

Who’s afraid of XML

?

Answer:

Don’t worry, there may be some good news towards the end of this session!Slide4

Warning!

This session involves manually editing XML…

(again, there’s some good news coming!)Slide5

VMCreatorSlide22

Install each server OS – VMCreator.ps1

OptionalPDT can use existing servers, physical or virtual, any virtualization platformRequirements - Windows Server,

domain joined,

WinRM

enabled, administrator permissions

Specify countHow many servers are in your deployment?

Specify defaults

Hyper-V host, VM name, processor, memory, network adapter, OS disk, data disks, domain to join

Full example in default Variable.xml in PDT

Specify overrides per VM, if desired

e.g. Different Hyper-V hosts, VM name, memory, OS disk

VMCreator.ps1 will validate required resources for VM creation

Creates VM, joins domain, enables

WinRM

, add installer service account to administratorsSlide23

VMCreator with Active Directory

Single pass complete lab setupProcess…First VM created as domain controller for new Active Directory forest

Media copied to DC during virtual hard disk creation

All other VMs are created but wait for Active Directory setup to complete before starting

Once Active Directory setup is complete, DC waits for all other VMs to start and join domain

DC automatically runs Installer.ps1

Recommendation

Include minimum of 2 data disks with DC for Active Directory database and log filesSlide25

Distributed Deployment ControllerManages validation, sequencing, dependenciesManages reboots where required

Gracefully handles cascading failures

Phases

For each server, simultaneously:

Administrators

Windows Roles and Features SQL Clusters – with dependencies between cluster nodes

SQL

Prerequisites

With cross server dependencies:

Roles

Integration and ConfigurationSlide31

The “Knowledge” in PDT – Workflow.xml

Installer.ps1 knows nothing about deploying System CenterAll “knowledge” is in Workflow.xmlWorkflow.xml defines everything we know about deploying System Center

Defines…

Roles

Requirements – validation, Windows roles and features, prerequisites

Dependencies on other roles Integrations between roles

Firewall

Installables

Downloads

Installs

Default settings – global, component, SQL

…and is completely extensible!Slide32

Validation

LocalValidates settings in Variable.xml for… FQDN, dependencies, role combinations, role instance count,

required variables, SQL instances, media

ActiveDirectory

Validates against Active Directory for…

Service accounts and passwords, other security principals - groups

Remote

Validates against target servers for…

Server exists, administrator access, clusters,

WinRM

, Task Scheduler,

credentials policy, operating system version, file access,

certificates, minimum memorySlide33

Variables for NLB

<

NLBName

– FQDN name for the NLB role

<

rolename

>NLBIPv4 – IPv4 for the NLB, must be the same for all NLB roles on a server

<

NLBConfig

– True or False, determines if PDT configure NLB or not

External load balancers

Set

NLBConfig

to False, no IPv4 required

Requires appropriate DNS entries exist

Custom setup and post installer

Custom setupVMCreator.ps1 –Setup <path>Requires a folder with the name of the VM in <path>

Requires a PowerShell script with the name of the VM in that folder

Script will be run against that VM using

autologon

during initial VM startup

VMCreator.ps1 with AD – DC waits for custom setup to complete before running Installer.ps1

PostInstaller

PostInstaller.ps1 in same location as Installer.ps1

Automatically run after successful completion of Installer.ps1

Must use

remoting

for configuration of any systems other than the one running Installer.ps1Slide39

Component Admin Groups

System Center components use different methodsService Manager requires admin group specified at installation timeOrchestrator optionally allows admin group specified at installation time

Operations Manager, Virtual Machine Manager, App Controller use members of local administrators

Service Provider Foundation, Data Protection Manager use local administrators group

Configuration Manager uses account performing the installation

PDT optionally allows you to specify admin groups

Service Manager is only required group to be specified

Configuration Manager admin group requires Configuration Manager console to be installed

PDT configures consoles to connect to correct serverSlide43

More Advanced Configuration

Other components settingsCopy variable from Workflow.xml to Variable.xml

Existing SQL

No

validation – installer service account must have permissions

Getting SQL “right”

Specify file locations for database files, log files,

tempDB

SQL Clusters

Windows cluster and storage must be created first

Virtual Machine Manager Cluster

Windows cluster must be created first

Active Directory container must be created first, with permission for VMM service account

Scale Out Roles

First then additional, Concurrent, SequentialSlide44

Troubleshooting

Progress displaySaved to C:\Temp\Status.txt

Installer.ps1 logging

Logs to C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Installer

Log file per target server in deployment

Unified log Installer.log

Note: Installer logs contain ALL command lines, with passwords removed

Component setup logging

Copied after deployment to C:\Temp\<GUID>\<ServerName>

Restarting deployment

Deployment can be restarted

Restarts do not redeploy anything that succeeded

Some failures are timeouts – restarts usually fix these

Be careful of reboots!Slide45
