Team Foundation Server Administration Tool

The TFS Admin Tool allows a TFS administrator to quickly add users to all three platforms utilized by Team Foundation Server: Team Foundation Server, Sharepoint, and SQL Reporting Services, all through one common interface. The tool also allows administrators to change the current permissions on any of the three tiers, identify any errors, and view all of the users and their permission sets across Team Foundation Server, Sharepoint, and SQL Reporting Services.

Features
TFS Admin Tool allows a TFS administrator to

  • Add, delete, and modify multiple user permissions from a TFS Team Project and apply them at the same time
  • Identify missing permissions from Sharepoint or SQL Reporting Services and correct them
  • View a log of permission changes that have occured
  • Define what Sharepoint and SQL Reporting Services permissions should be automatically used when creating a new TFS user


Requirements
In order to run the TFS Administration Tool, you will need the following components installed

  • .NET Framework 2.0
  • Administrative rights for the TFS Server, Sharepoint Server, and SQL Reporting Services server you wish to add users to The account that has the admin rights must be the same account you are running the Admin Tool from on your local machine.
  • A domain-based Team Foundation Server setup
  • Microsoft Visual Studio Team Foundation Server 2008 (server-based, not necessarily local)
  • Team Explorer 2008 installed locally
