Once you understand how these tools
work, begin adding event log entries to your batch and script files so that the system automatically
records problems with any automation you use. Consider creating automation to check the performance
of your system. Scripts that read the output of performance monitoring tools and alert you
to specific conditions are a good addition to your administrator toolbox. All this said, make sure
you also discover how to use the graphical tools from a remote machine to monitor Server Core.
This is one situation where using the graphical tools is helpful because they present the output in
several forms (some of them graphical).
If you promote your Server Core installation to a domain controller, you??™ll need to know how to
work with Active Directory at the command line. Server Core automatically installs Active Directory
as part of the domain controller promotion, so you don??™t really have a choice about learning about
Active Directory should you choose to use Server Core as a domain controller. Chapter 19 provides
you with the details of working with Active Directory at the command line in Server Core.
Chapter 19
