ExchangePro: Troubleshooting Remote PowerShell issues (4312261)

A common area of confusion is implementing remote PowerShell within the Exchange Pro environment. You can verify and troubleshoot any PowerShell issues, even before you install Exchange Pro using the guidance below.
Open Windows PowerShell 2.0 on the system where you intend to install Exchange Pro. In turn, execute the following commands and see that they complete successfully. If the final command functions, so will the Exchange Pro installation.

To check that all the Remote PowerShell security settings have been properly configured you can use these four commands.  On the Exchange Pro server, open the Windows PowerShell commands application.
1)    $UserCredential = Get-Credential
2)    $Session = New-PSSession –ConfigurationName Microsoft.Exchange –ConnectionUri https://Exchange2010-server.contoso.com/PowerShell/ -Authentication Basic –Credential $UserCredential
3)    Import-PSSession $Session
4)    get-mailbox administrator
You should receive information on the Administrator mailbox account reported back to the PowerShell command screen if the settings are all correct.  If there are any errors shown from entering these commands you should re-run the PowerShell command statements listed in the Exchange Pro Admin Guide.
