New operations in STSADM.EXE for WSSv3

I haven’t seen the WSS Admin documentation appear on MS Downloads yet, but after installing WSSv3 Beta 2 I quickly did a comparison of the STSADM.EXE operations with v2. Here is a quick list of new operations:

activatefeature
addalternatedomain
addcontentdb
addpermissionpolicy
addsolution
addzoneurl
authentication
backuphistory
blockedfilelist
canceldeployment
changepermissionpolicy
copyappbincontent
creategroup
databaserepair
deactivatefeature
deletealternatedomain
deletecontentdb
deletegroup
deletepermissionpolicy
deletesolution
deletezoneurl
deploysolution
deploywppack
displaysolution
enumalternatedomains
enumcontentdbs
enumdeployments
enumgroups
enumservices
enumsolutions
enumzoneurls
execadmsvcjobs
export
getsitelock
geturlzone
import
installfeature
managepermissionpolicylevel
migrateuser
provisionservice
registerwsswriter
renameserver
retractsolution
retractwppack
scanforfeatures
setapppassword
setsearchserver
setsitelock
setworkflowconfig
spsearch
syncsolution
uninstallfeature
unregisterwsswriter
updateaccountpassword
updatealerttemplates
updatefarmcredentials
upgradesolution

It looks like the SMIGRATE.EXE util has been replaced with STSADM -o export|import.

I’ll be poking around a bit with the new version and report anything interesting that comes up.
