DSC MOF Compilation Demo
PowerShell Desired State Configuration is a declarative configuration platform for Windows and Linux. DSC configurations can be authored in PowerShell and compiled into the resultant MOF document.
This demo shows use of PowerShell to author a DSC configuration to set the configuration of an Apache web server. PowerShell scripting is used to assess distribution and version-specific properties, such as the service controller and repo manager tools, for use in the configuration.
Prerequisites
- PowerShell >= 6.0.0-alpha.8 https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell/releases
- OMI: >= 1.1.0 https://www.github.com/microsoft/omi/releases
- Desired State Configuration for Linux >= 1.1.1-278 https://github.com/Microsoft/PowerShell-DSC-for-Linux/releases
Note: applying the DSC configuration requires privileges. The user must have sudo authorization capabilities. You will be prompted for a sudo password when running the demo.
