Milestone #6 PowerCLI and 480utils - wAlber47/Tech-Journal GitHub Wiki
Installing and Configurating Visual Studio
Before starting to work on the 480utils script, there are a few things that need to be done to prepare. We have to install Visual Studio, link GitHub to Visual Studio, and install Powershell onto Visual Studio. All of this is fairly simple and can be done with these steps.
To install Visual Studio on xubuntu-wan, run sudo snap install --classic code.
In order to link GitHub, select the Source Control section on the left hand pane, from there simply enter the GitHub repo link and select the defaults. The screen should look very similar to this:
For the final part, which is to install PowerShell, go to File -> Preferences -> Extensions, and search for Powershell. Then install the extension, the screen post-installation should look like this:
480utils Script
The goal for this assignment is to write a Powershell script that prompts a user for all parameters required to create a linked clone. We've done this manually in past labs, so creating the script version of this shouldn't be too hard, however due to my lack of knowledge in this error it will take some trial and error.
