An engineer is someone who can make for a dollar what any fool could make for two. – Alan Kay
This example shows how to use SharePoint Client Object API through PowerShell to create a list item with specific Author and Editor.
Useful if you want to preserve identities while moving the SharePoint items.
$siteUrl = "http://mysite" $listTitle = "My List" $user = "9;#domain\user" cd "$installFolder" Add-Type -Path .<PATH>\Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.dll $ctx = new-object Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.ClientContext($siteUrl) $web = $ctx.Web $list = $web.Lists.GetByTitle($listTitle) $itemInfo = new-object Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.ListItemCreationInformation $item = $list.AddItem($itemInfo) $item['Title'] = "Hello World" $item['Author'] = $user $item['Editor'] = $user $item.Update() $ctx.ExecuteQuery()
The tricky part here is the $user value. It should be in the form of: {user Id in SharePoint};#{user Name}
You can automate the process of getting the user Id number by Name.
Something wrong with Windows Azure! I decided to run a SharePoint 2013 on Windows Azure. Just to give Azure a chance;) But! What is going on there? Does someone really use it?
SharePoint 2013 requires minimum 8GB of RAM.

Get-SPSite | % {$_.AllWebs} | % {$_.Lists} | measure-object -property ItemCount -sum -minimum -maximum -average
Count – number of Lists in the SharePoint farm
Sum – number of Items in the SharePoint farm
Maximum – number of Items the biggest List has
Average – Items per List (average)
This script displays all Site collection Administrators along with their email addresses for all web applications.
Get-SPSite | % {$_.RootWeb.SiteAdministrators} | select @{name='Url';expr={$_.ParentWeb.Url}}, LoginName, Email
If you are on WSS v.3/MOSS 2007 use the next defenition for Get-SPSite
[System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName("Microsoft.SharePoint") | Out-Null
function Get-SPSite{
$farm = [Microsoft.SharePoint.Administration.SPFarm]::Local
$farm.services | % {if($_.WebApplications.Count){$_.WebApplications}} | % {if($_.sites.Count){$_.sites}}
}
Get-SPSite | % {$_.AllWebs} | % {$_.Lists} | % {$_.Items} | ? {$_["Created"].Date -eq [System.DateTime]::ToDay} | % {"$($_.Web.Url)/$($_.Url)"}
If you are on WSS v.3/MOSS 2007 use the next defenition for Get-SPSite
[System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName("Microsoft.SharePoint") | Out-Null
function Get-SPSite{
$farm = [Microsoft.SharePoint.Administration.SPFarm]::Local
$farm.services | % {if($_.WebApplications.Count){$_.WebApplications}} | % {if($_.sites.Count){$_.sites}}

This post is more about the confusion that may arise around SPNs for setting up Kerberos authentication in IIS 7.0. IIS 7.0 has a new Kernel-mode authentication feature using which the ticket for the requested service is decrypted using Machine account (Local system) of the IIS server. It no longer depends upon the application pool Identity for this purpose by default and in turn improves the performance.
The are good post SharePoint Farm using Kerberos on IIS7 related to this configuration.

If the default Shared Services in the newly installed deployment is not deleted,
the restore job will hang when trying to restore the Shared Search Index at the following step:
Progress: [Shared Search Index] 90 percent complete.
MOSS 2007 (front-ends are Windows 2008) farm recovery is stuck on Progress: [Shared Search Index] 90 percent complete in the log. Does anybody know what is going on?
