This article describes how to install the SharePoint 2010 Administration Toolkit version 2.0.

The SharePoint Administration Toolkit requires Microsoft SharePoint Server 2010 to be installed. Membership in the following groups is required to install each tool:

  • Load Testing Kit, Security Configuration Wizard (SCW) manifest, Content Management Interoperability Services (CMIS) connector, SharePoint Diagnostic Studio: Farm administrator and local administrator

  • User Profile Replication Engine: Local administrator only

    Note

    The User Profile Replication Engine tool is only available by using Windows PowerShell cmdlets. Verify that you meet the following minimum requirements: See Add-SPShellAdmin. Also, on a Windows Server 2008-based computer, if User Access Control (UAC) is enabled, you must elevate the permission of this tool to Run as Administrator. For additional information about User Access Control, see User Account Control Step-by-Step Guide (https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=216724).
    The User Profile Replication Engine and the Content Management Interoperability Services connector are not supported for Microsoft SharePoint Foundation 2010.
