I've very recently become OBSESSED with learning PowerShell and was already giddy at how much easier it's about to make my life - then I read somewhere to check out DSC and now I'm here. Let's just say I'm in an euphoric state right now.
@@NTFAQGuy thank you sir! Also, I just found out we are lic for vRealize Automation and I will be spending 5 days in a training class to learn to you use it. In your opinion could that satisfy atleast the basics of DSC? I’m just trying to figure out where to invest the tiny bit of time that I have lol
By the way, if you use single quotes " ' " to define your here-string (or any string), you don't have to escape anything (except single quote mark). It means "literal". So, you can't use variables in such a string.
In this instance yes. They define the types of object that we can configure via DSC like a process, folder, IIS configuration etc. DSC Resources define these and we can import others beyond those that are built in.
