Migrating a WordPress Site
This guide is pretty good but misses a couple of steps!
https://www.quicksprout.com/2015/09/16/the-simple-guide-to-moving-your-wordpress-site-to-a-new-domain/
- Download the contents of your current public html folder
- Open phpMyAdmin
- Export the database to a file on your local machine
- Import the database to the new site
- On the new site, update “wp_options” table so that “home” and “siteurl” points to the new domain
- Edit the downloaded “wp-config.php” file so that the following are correct for the new domain:
- DB_NAME
- DB_USER
- DB_PASSWORD
- DB_HOST
- Upload the amended files to the new domain
Check script has been run with administration rights in PowerShell
Check PowerShell script has been run with administration rights…
# Check if the script has been run with Admin Privilages
function Test-Administrator
{
$user = [Security.Principal.WindowsIdentity]::GetCurrent();
(New-Object Security.Principal.WindowsPrincipal $user).IsInRole([Security.Principal.WindowsBuiltinRole]::Administrator)
}
Move a VM with Powershell
$SourceHost = "SERVER1"
$DestHost = "SERVER2"
$VM = "VMToBeMoved"
$DestPath = "d:\hyper-v"
Move-VM -ComputerName $SourceHost -Name $VM -DestinationHost $DestHost -DestinationStoragePath $DestPath
Disk and Performance on Hyper-V
From command prompt…
diskperf -y
taskmgr
This opens the task manager window where you can see basic performance graphs.
When you close task manager, remember to stop the disk monitoring.
diskperf -n
Diskpart Commands!
Nice examples of using Disk part to create and manage volumes and disks.
Adding a server back onto a domain
…this is for when a server looses its trust relationship with the domain and you don’t want to remove and re-add it (due to it having SQL or something!)
Run this on the server you want to change referencing the DC you want to update the computer password on:
netdom resetpwd /s:SERVERDC1 /ud:mydomain\administrator /pd:*
Server 2008 R2 Not booting
Remote manage a Hyper-V server from a different domain
…don’t!
You can however remove it from its current domain:
netdom remove /d:DomainThatNoLongerExist.COM HYPERVComputerName /FORCE
Then add it in server manager, right click on it and select Manage As… and you can enter the local admin credentials for the Hyper-V box

Still not entirely sure if you need to run this on the management server…
Set-Item WSMan:\localhost\Client\TrustedHosts -Value
