Description

Type: Distributed Requires CredSSP: No

This resource is responsible for provisioning and managing the Project Server service application in SharePoint Server 2016 or 2019.

To create a Project Server site the following DSC resources can be used to create the site and enable the feature.

SPSite PWASite
{
    Url                      = "http://projects.contoso.com"
    OwnerAlias               = "CONTOSO\ExampleUser"
    HostHeaderWebApplication = "http://spsites.contoso.com"
    Name                     = "PWA Site"
    Template                 = "PWA#0"
    PsDscRunAsCredential     = $SetupAccount
}

SPFeature PWASiteFeature
{
    Name                 = "PWASITE"
    Url                  = "http://projects.contoso.com"
    FeatureScope         = "Site"
    PsDscRunAsCredential = $SetupAccount
    DependsOn            = "[SPSite]PWASite"
}

Examples

Example 1

This example shows how to create a new project server services service app in the local farm

Configuration Example
{
    param
    (
        [Parameter(Mandatory = $true)]
        [PSCredential]
        $SetupAccount
    )

    Import-DscResource -ModuleName SharePointDsc

    node localhost
    {
        SPProjectServerServiceApp ProjectServiceApp
        {
            Name                 = "Project Server Service Application"
            ApplicationPool      = "SharePoint Web Services"
            PsDscRunAsCredential = $SetupAccount
        }
    }
}

Example 2

This example shows how to remove a project server service app in the local farm. The ApplicationPool property is still required but is not used when removing, so the value used here doesn't matter.

Configuration Example
{
    param
    (
        [Parameter(Mandatory = $true)]
        [PSCredential]
        $SetupAccount
    )

    Import-DscResource -ModuleName SharePointDsc

    node localhost
    {
        SPProjectServerServiceApp ProjectServiceApp
        {
            Name                 = "Project Server Service Application"
            ApplicationPool      = "n/a"
            Ensure               = "Absent"
            PsDscRunAsCredential = $SetupAccount
        }
    }
}
