For this week's BriForum video, we thought we'd do a 2-for-1 special. In Chicago last year, Joe Shonk put on an excellent 2-part presentation called "Automated Installs."

In the first session, Joe gives a beginner to intermediate presentation on how to script installs. In this session, you'll learn:

  • Why every Administrator/Engineer should learn how to script
  • The different types of installers
  • Develop a methodology and approach
  • Scripting best practices
  • How to troubleshoot and pinpoint problems
  • In-depth analysis of several installation scripts

In the second session, Joe dives in a little deeper and talks about how to create a flexible scripting framework to tie in all the techniques learned in Part One.
