I am truly sorry but neither PowerShell or Windows Workflow Foundation have completed Change Review processes yet. Something about the CIO learning batch file techniques from http://kb.ultratech-llc.com/ and since nothing on that site has been upgraded to either PS or WWF, then they must not be worth using. :)

I could improve your work flow and get that down to 3 weeks using PowerShell and Windows Workflow Foundation. That being said – the process is truly even more complex than that in some environments.

We submit a Change Request Form that goes to a sub committee to study the ramifications of the change. THe sub committee breaks into study groups to come up with the proper implementation, DR, rollback and backup plans. Once all four sub committees have had their finding published in a peer reviewed internal Sharepoint site, then the committee meets. During the meeting all sides present their views and a thumbs-up or thumbs-down decision is reached. If the decision is thumbs-up, then the Change Request Form is submitted to the IT Managers committee for review.

Once all four sub committees have had their finding published in a Management Level peer reviewed internal Sharepoint site, then the IT Managers committee meets again.

During the meeting all sides present their views and a thumbs-up or thumbs-down decision is reached. If the decision is thumbs-up, then the Change Request Form is submitted to the CIO for approval. If the CIO approves, the share is created. If the CIO disapproves, go back to the beginning or find a better place to work. Time to get the share approved and created is 9 months.

Do you guys have the “server” guys create the actual shares, or is it the desktop support guys? I ask because for end users our desktop currently folks do it, but we are moving to Win2K8 R2 DFS so share creation is a little different but certainly not complex enough that they can’t do it. Just wondered how you guys handle it. ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin
