The SharePoint library is loaded using the following command flow:

• [System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName("Microsoft.SharePoint");
• $spFarm = [Microsoft.SharePoint.Administration.SPFarm]::Local;
• if(!$spFarm){echo("---CANNOT EXECUTE DISCOVERY---"); exit(1)}

After the last command is executed, the local SharePoint farm is initialized or the message ---CANNOT EXECUTE DISCOVERY--- is displayed.

When SharePoint is discovered by PowerShell, the ShowSharePointHostConfig and ShowSharePointWebConfig commands are called (described in Miscrosoft SharePoint Discovery Commands above). The SharePoint Farm CI is built from executing the following commands:

• Echo($spFarm.Id.Guid) – discovers the farm ID

• Echo($spFarm.BuildVersion.ToString()) – discovers the farm version
