Load Balancer solution parameters

Load Balancer solution handling

The Add-MMExExchangeRemoteHost has the following syntax:

Add-MMExExchangeRemoteHost -OrganizationName <Exchange organization name> -FQDN <FQDN name> -Version <Exchange server version> [-ADSite <Active Directory site name>]

Where

  • OrganizationName is a name of Exchange Organization.
  • FQDN is FQDN name of Client Access Server or Load Balancer in Exchange organization.
  • Version is version of Exchange server that is accessed by means of Client Access Server or Load Balancer in Exchange organization.
  • Ex2010sp2
  • Ex2010sp3
  • Ex2013
  • Ex2016
  • Ex2019
  • ADSite - is a name of Active Directory site where Client Access Server or Load Balancer is located. This parameter is optional.

Example: Add-MMExExchangeRemoteHost

The following cmdlet adds the FQDN of Client Access Server or Load Balancer that reside in the source or target organization to the project database:

Add-MMExExchangeRemoteHost -OrganizationName ExchangeOrg1 -FQDN ExchCAS.source.com -Version Ex2010sp3

Collection Member Management

To manage mail, calendar and native move collection members you can use the following cmdlets:

TIP:

  • You can use CSV file to add or remove multiple collection members. Refer to the instruction on how to generate CSV file for this operation.
  • You can use -ForceMove switch to force adding members to the collection even in case these members were included in another collection. These members will be removed from another collection and will added to the specified one (move operation).
Get-MMExCollectionMember

Returns members (mailboxes, groups, containers) of all collections or of filtered collections specified by its name, type or ID. If no parameters specified all members of all collections will be returned. The following properties are returned, if applicable:

  • Source Organization Name
  • Target Organization Name
  • Collection Name
  • Collection Type <Mail | Calendar | NativeMove>
  • Name <Alias for Group|DN for Container| Alias for Mailbox>
  • Type <Group | Container | Mailbox >
  • SMTP <PrimarySmtpAddress>

The Get-MMExCollectionMember cmdlet has the following syntax:

Get-MMExCollectionMember [-CollectionName <collection name>] -CollectionType <Mail, Calendar or NativeMove> [-SourceOrganization <Source organization name>] [-TargetOrganization <Target organization name> [<CommonParameters>]

-OR-

Get-MMExCollectionMember [-CollectionId <collection ID>] [<CommonParameters>]

You can use CollectionId to identify the collection instead of collection name, type, source and target organization. This is recommended for the cases where collection names differ by case only to identify the collection uniquely.

IMPORTANT: Command will be aborted in case the unique collection cannot be found using specified parameters.

Parameters

-CollectionId

Optional named parameter. Contains collection identifier.

Import-Csv -Path "C:\members.csv"| Remove-MMExCollectionMember

Removes members specified in a csv file. You can generate CSV file as described below.

To get comma-separated file for this operation you can use the following command:

Get-MMExCollectionMember |Export-Csv c:\members.csv "SourceOrganization","TargetOrganization","CollectionName","CollectionType","MemberIdentity","MemberType","SMTP"

CSV file example:

"Limbo Organization","Nasri Organization","M1","Mail","limbo_02","Mailbox","limbo_02@limbo.amazon.dmm"

Additional Permissions Required for Collection Member Management

To validate members that should be added to the collection using Add-MMExCollectionMember cmdlet, the administrative account specified in Add Source Organization wizard should be granted the following additional permissions:

  • Permissions required to add mailboxes:
    • View-Only Recipients management role
    • View-Only Configuration management role
  • Permissions required to add groups and containers:
    • Read access to the source domain
    • PowerShell Remoting access to the source forest

These additional permissions should be granted only in case you are planning to use using Add-MMExCollectionMember cmdlet.

Granting View-Only Recipients and View-Only Configuration management roles

New-ManagementRoleAssignment -Role "View-Only Configuration" -User "source\mmex_svc"
New-ManagementRoleAssignment -Role "View-Only Recipients" -User "source\mmex_svc"

Granting PowerShell Remoting access to the source forest

For Windows Server 2008 and later

By default, only domain administrators are allowed to use remote PowerShell. If services account does not belong to domain administrators group, administrator should perform the following actions at a Domain Controller:

  • Execute in PowerShell to access Permissions configuration UI:
Set-PSSessionConfiguration -Name Microsoft.PowerShell -showSecurityDescriptorUI

Do the following in Permissions configuration UI:

  1. Add service account to the list
  2. Set Read(Get,Enumerate,Subscribe) and Execute(Invoke) permission to Allow for service account
  3. Save changes and exit
  4. Restart WinRM service

For Windows Server 2012 and later

Security group "Remote Management Users" has been introduced in Windows Server 2012. Users belonging to it are allowed to use the default session configuration to create new PowerShell sessions. This also grants the user access to WMI resources over management protocols (such as WS-Management) on the machine where you added the user to Remote Management Users.

  • Add the MMEx service account to the "Remote Management Users" group
