It is designed to be run in a lab configuration folder. It will report on the required Desired State Configuration (DSC) resources and any versions that may already be installed. This can be used to diagnose potential version conflicts. Resources are installed automatically when you build a configuration so you don't need to take any action unless directed.</maml:para> </maml:description> <command:syntax> <command:syntaxItem> <maml:name>Test-LabDSCResource</maml:name> <command:parameter required="false" variableLength="true" globbing="false" pipelineInput="False" position="0" aliases="none"> <maml:name>Path</maml:name> <maml:description> <maml:para>Specify the folder path of an AutoLab configuration or change locations to the folder and run this command.</maml:para> </maml:description> <command:parameterValue required="true" variableLength="false">String</command:parameterValue> <dev:type> <maml:name>String</maml:name> <maml:uri /> </dev:type> <dev:defaultValue>.</dev:defaultValue> </command:parameter> </command:syntaxItem> </command:syntax> <command:parameters> <command:parameter required="false" variableLength="true" globbing="false" pipelineInput="False" position="0" aliases="none"> <maml:name>Path</maml:name> <maml:description> <maml:para>Specify the folder path of an AutoLab configuration or change locations to the folder and run this command.</maml:para> </maml:description> <command:parameterValue required="true" variableLength="false">String</command:parameterValue> <dev:type> <maml:name>String</maml:name> <maml:uri /> </dev:type> <dev:defaultValue>.</dev:defaultValue> </command:parameter> </command:parameters> <command:inputTypes> <command:inputType> <dev:type> <maml:name>None</maml:name> </dev:type> <maml:description> <maml:para></maml:para> </maml:description> </command:inputType> </command:inputTypes> <command:returnValues> <command:returnValue> <dev:type> <maml:name>PSAutoLabResource</maml:name> </dev:type> <maml:description> <maml:para></maml:para> </maml:description> </command:returnValue> </command:returnValues> <maml:alertSet> <maml:alert> <maml:para></maml:para> </maml:alert> </maml:alertSet> <command:examples> <command:example> <maml:title>-------------------------- Example 1 --------------------------</maml:title> <dev:code>PS C:\autolab\Configurations\MultiRole> Test-LabDSCResource Configuration: MultiRole ModuleName RequiredVersion Installed InstalledVersions ---------- --------------- --------- ----------------- xActiveDirectory 3.0.0.0 True 3.0.0.0 xComputerManagement 4.1.0.0 True 4.1.0.0 xNetworking 5.7.0.0 True 5.7.0.0 xDhcpServer 3.0.0 True 3.0.0 xWindowsUpdate 2.8.0.0 True 2.8.0.0 xPSDesiredStateConfiguration 9.1.0 True 9.1.0 xPendingReboot 0.4.0.0 True 0.4.0.0 xADCSDeployment 1.4.0.0 True 1.4.0.0 xDnsServer 1.16.0.0 True 1.16.0.0</dev:code> <dev:remarks> <maml:para>Run this command from the lab configuration folder.</maml:para> </dev:remarks> </command:example> </command:examples> <command:relatedLinks> <maml:navigationLink> <maml:linkText>Online Version:</maml:linkText> <maml:uri>https://github.com/pluralsight/PS-AutoLab-Env/blob/master/docs/Test-LabDSCResource.md</maml:uri> </maml:navigationLink> <maml:navigationLink> <maml:linkText>Get-LabSummary</maml:linkText> <maml:uri></maml:uri> </maml:navigationLink> <maml:navigationLink> <maml:linkText>Get-DSCResource</maml:linkText> <maml:uri></maml:uri> </maml:navigationLink> </command:relatedLinks> </command:command> <command:command xmlns:maml="http://schemas.microsoft.com/maml/2004/10" xmlns:command="http://schemas.microsoft.com/maml/dev/command/2004/10" xmlns:dev="http://schemas.microsoft.com/maml/dev/2004/10" xmlns:MSHelp="http://msdn.microsoft.com/mshelp"> <command:details> <command:name>Update-Lab</command:name> <command:verb>Update</command:verb> <command:noun>Lab</command:noun> <maml:description> <maml:para>Run Windows update on Autolab virtual machines.</maml:para> </maml:description> </command:details> <maml:description> <maml:para>When you build a lab, you are creating Windows virtual machines based on evaluation software. You might still want to make sure the virtual machines are up to date with security patches and updates. You can use this command to invoke Windows update on all lab members. This can be a time-consuming process, especially for labs with multiple virtual machines. The recommended syntax is to use the -AsJob parameter which runs the update process for each virtual machine in a background job. Use PowerShell's job cmdlets to manage the jobs.
