How to setup Pull-Server Powershell DSC?

Question

PowerShell

I am testing the possibility of transferring PC fleet management to Power Shell Desired State Configuration .
PowerShell DSC is a Desired State Configuration service from Microsoft. Similar to Ansible based on PowerShell.
In this regard, 2 questions:
1) If anyone has already tried or uses PowerShell DSC, please share your experience. What Pull server are you using and why?
2) When you try to deploy a Pull server on Windows Server 2016 according to the instructions from MS , nothing happens. More precisely, the "Windows PowerShell Desired State Configuration Service" is installed, but applying the configuration gives an error:

PS C:\DSC\HTTP> Get-DscConfigurationStatus

Status     StartDate                 Type            Mode  RebootRequested      NumberOfResources             
------     ---------                 ----            ----  ---------------      -----------------             
Failure    04.08.2018 16:56:45       Initial         PUSH  False

What to do next? Perhaps the Pull Server is already running, but how to manage it and how to check the settings? In general, where is his control interface?

Answer 1

As for the second part of the question, it turned out like this:
The configuration error was caused by previous, incorrect configurations (there was no certificate fingerprint), running the command with the -force key solved the problem
And then I found another article describing how to do everything by hand:
