WEBVTT 00:00.450 --> 00:07.350 Welcome and this lesson will be talking about creating modifying and removing mailboxes. 00:07.350 --> 00:14.750 But before you start them you should know that from the systems where you have installed Exchange Server 00:14.820 --> 00:24.210 2016 management tools you can administer your Exchange server environment with Windows powers shell 00:24.450 --> 00:29.400 by starting the Exchange management shell from the start menu. 00:29.550 --> 00:35.600 When you start a normal Windows BOA's shell or Windows powers shell aier secession. 00:35.710 --> 00:43.020 Like come on let's that you're required to manage Wishings server are not available immediately. 00:43.020 --> 00:51.540 However if you install the exchange server 2016 management tools locally you can add Exchange management 00:51.540 --> 00:56.350 shell support to do this just run the following command. 00:56.430 --> 01:05.390 You have to import module which is located on the following path and then connect Exchange server. 01:05.520 --> 01:14.400 I'll be demonstrating the command on IAC won't be connected to exchange server or so to run the exchange 01:14.400 --> 01:14.920 command. 01:14.960 --> 01:22.460 I have to add exchange related snap in him so I'll run at P.S. PM. 01:22.560 --> 01:28.160 By the way to view all the available snippiness you can run the following command. 01:28.170 --> 01:29.280 Get --. 01:29.440 --> 01:33.870 Pain and it will reveal all their whaleboat snare pins. 01:33.900 --> 01:39.000 I'll add to all those opinions which have exchanged Ruritanian. 01:39.150 --> 01:45.070 So now let's switch to create and modify and remove and mailboxes. 01:45.210 --> 01:53.310 It's one of the most common tasks performed within the exchange management shell is mailbox management 01:53.560 --> 02:02.010 and this lesson will take a look at command syntax required to create update and remove mailboxes from 02:02.010 --> 02:04.740 your exchange organization. 02:04.740 --> 02:13.410 The concepts outlined in this lesson can be used to perform basic day to day tasks and will be used 02:13.650 --> 02:19.690 for more advanced scenarios such as Great mailboxes and Baalke. 02:19.740 --> 02:27.320 So lets start off by greed in a mailbox enabled active directory user account to do this. 02:27.390 --> 02:33.560 We can use their new mailbox command Latt as shown in this example. 02:33.720 --> 02:41.690 So take a first look at least code and will review it in more detail in just a few seconds. 02:41.730 --> 02:50.610 Once the mailbox has been created we can modify it using the set mailbox command left and to remove 02:50.610 --> 02:58.200 the exchange attributes from the active directory user account and Margalla mailbox in the database 02:58.500 --> 02:59.780 for removal. 02:59.790 --> 03:03.510 You can use the disable mailbox command let. 03:03.640 --> 03:07.890 Now let's take a closer look at the following command. 03:07.890 --> 03:14.230 When running then you mailbox command let the password parameter is required. 03:14.330 --> 03:17.290 Anti-O need to provide to well-you for it. 03:17.340 --> 03:24.930 You can do this by using a secure string object as you can see from the code we've used the convert 03:24.960 --> 03:30.030 to secure string command left to create a password to wearable. 03:30.150 --> 03:32.000 That's Tauruses pacifier. 03:32.010 --> 03:34.760 Well you have an encrypted stream. 03:34.860 --> 03:41.060 This password wearable is them assigned to the password parameter. 03:41.130 --> 03:48.830 When running the command left there is no requirement for first to store this object in a wearable. 03:48.900 --> 03:53.850 You could put this slime wherever you want in this command let. 03:53.970 --> 04:00.210 Of course keep in mind that the password to used here needs to comply with your active directory of 04:00.240 --> 04:08.180 password Burleson's which may enforce a minimum pass for Lance and have requirements for complexity 04:08.520 --> 04:16.430 only a few parameters are actually required when running a new mailbox but the command letter itself 04:16.440 --> 04:25.460 supports several useful parameters that can be used to set certain properties when creating the mailbox. 04:25.470 --> 04:33.360 And of course you can run get help new mailbox with detailed parameter to determine which additional 04:33.360 --> 04:35.770 parameters are supported. 04:35.790 --> 04:44.870 Then your mailbox command lead creates an active directory user and then mailbox enables that account. 04:44.880 --> 04:52.160 We can also create mailboxes for existing users with the Enable mailbox command left. 04:52.170 --> 05:01.450 We could use it for an sumed to access for these command let enable mailbox Steve and database parameter 05:01.540 --> 05:09.930 for example D-B won it will enable mailbox for Steve user in database D-B 1. 05:10.000 --> 05:18.670 So the only requirement one running the enabled mailbox command letter is that you Brue white the identity 05:18.730 --> 05:27.120 of the active directory user that should be mailbox enabled in the previous example they've specified 05:27.140 --> 05:31.680 the database in which their mailbox should be created. 05:31.840 --> 05:33.830 But this is optional. 05:33.830 --> 05:42.280 They enable mailbox command that supports a number of other parameters that you can use to control their 05:42.520 --> 05:45.280 initial settings for the mailbox. 05:45.280 --> 05:54.070 You can use a simple one line or to create mailboxes in Baalke for xist an active directory users. 05:54.070 --> 06:04.240 For example you can get a user recipient type detail's user and pipe it to enable mailbox with database 06:04.240 --> 06:05.150 parameter. 06:05.170 --> 06:14.290 For example D-B one note that we have raúl that get to use a command let's say fine user Well you know 06:14.440 --> 06:18.010 for the recipient type details parameter. 06:18.010 --> 06:26.980 This will receive only those accounts in active directory that have not been mailbox enabled will then 06:27.010 --> 06:36.280 pipe those objects down to the Enable mailbox command left and mailboxes are created for each of those 06:36.280 --> 06:40.020 users in one simple operation once. 06:40.090 --> 06:42.220 Mailboxes have been created. 06:42.220 --> 06:51.010 They then can be modified to either set mailbox command led as you may recall from our original example 06:51.310 --> 07:00.130 we used the set mailbox command led to configure custom storage quarter ends after creating a mailbox 07:00.160 --> 07:01.600 for Dave Jones. 07:01.600 --> 07:08.630 Keep in mind that the set mailbox command lets supports almost 200 parameters. 07:08.740 --> 07:17.470 So anything that can be done to modify a mailbox can be scripted to but modification to mailboxes can 07:17.470 --> 07:21.770 be done easily by taking advantage of the pipeline. 07:21.790 --> 07:29.720 And the sad mailbox command led instead of configuring storage quarters on a single mailbox. 07:29.770 --> 07:33.730 We can do it for multiple users at once. 07:33.730 --> 07:36.030 So we could do it with the following command. 07:36.040 --> 07:42.790 Get mailbox be an organizational unit sales by it to said mailbox. 07:42.910 --> 07:52.980 We use database quarter defaults parameter which is false and prohibit Santror receive water for five 07:52.990 --> 07:57.660 G-B and issue 1 and quarter 4 for GAAP. 07:57.690 --> 08:02.500 Here we are simply retrieve in every mailbox of the sales. 08:02.650 --> 08:10.840 Oh you use and get mailbox come and let the objects return from the command are bribed down to that 08:10.840 --> 08:17.320 mailbox which modifies what are settings for each mailbox in one shot. 08:17.430 --> 08:25.330 No the disable mailbox command let Rose dribbler exchange attributes from the active directory user 08:25.600 --> 08:35.590 and we'll disconnect the associated mailbox by default disconnected mailboxes are retained for 30 days. 08:35.620 --> 08:42.750 You can modify these settings on the database that holds the mailbox in addition to this. 08:42.880 --> 08:52.960 You can to use the remove mailbox command left to delete both the active directory current and the mailbox 08:52.960 --> 08:54.280 at the same time. 08:54.430 --> 08:56.290 So take a look at this command. 08:56.290 --> 08:58.970 Remove mailbox identity Dave. 08:59.270 --> 09:00.840 Confirm false. 09:00.880 --> 09:08.270 After running this command the mailbox will be purged once it exceeds the deleted mailbox. 09:08.270 --> 09:11.470 Retentions said in all the database. 09:11.470 --> 09:20.570 One common mistake is when administrators use the remove mailbox command Latt when the disable mailbox 09:20.590 --> 09:22.830 command left should have been used. 09:22.840 --> 09:30.790 It's important to remember that the remove mailbox command left will delete the active directory user 09:30.790 --> 09:36.590 account and mailbox while the disable mailbox command left. 09:36.670 --> 09:44.330 Only remove the mailbox but the active directory user account will still remain now. 09:44.380 --> 09:48.950 When we are around then you mailbox command Loughton the previous examples. 09:49.110 --> 09:57.640 Are silent as securest through an object to the password parameter using the convert to secure string. 09:57.640 --> 09:58.730 Come on out. 09:58.780 --> 10:07.410 This is a great technique to use when you scripts need complete automation but you can also allow an 10:07.410 --> 10:12.080 operator to enter this information interactively. 10:12.110 --> 10:20.060 For example you might build a script that prompts an operator for a password when great in one or more 10:20.060 --> 10:21.320 mailboxes. 10:21.320 --> 10:24.080 There are a couple of ways you can do this. 10:24.080 --> 10:32.240 First you can use the read host command left to prompt the user running the script to enter a password 10:32.510 --> 10:36.050 once the role has been entered into the shell. 10:36.050 --> 10:44.300 Your script can as Sylar pass wearable to the brasswork parameter or the new mailbox command lad. 10:44.480 --> 10:52.310 Alternatively you can supply Well you for a password parameter using the get credentialed command led. 10:52.460 --> 11:00.740 You could run the following code with new mail box command let rewired and the details like name and 11:00.980 --> 11:08.150 user principle name and two you can see them there while you are assigned to the birth for parameter. 11:08.150 --> 11:16.530 In this example is actually the Basford property of the object returned by the get credentials among 11:16.560 --> 11:24.320 left executor in this command tril forest lawn chair vendors or authentication dialog box where the 11:24.320 --> 11:28.080 caller can Antar a username and password. 11:28.250 --> 11:34.690 And once the credential object has been created then you mailbox command Latrell wrong. 11:34.700 --> 11:42.260 Even though a username and password must be entered into the oath and to Keeshan dialog box only the 11:42.260 --> 11:42.990 password. 11:43.020 --> 11:47.290 Well you will be used when the command runs. 11:47.360 --> 11:56.210 And again make sure that the password Antar that suits your organizational password policy is now a 11:56.210 --> 12:05.150 commonly used mailbox type is a shared mailbox which is really march where the name says and mailbox 12:05.150 --> 12:08.220 share between different individuals. 12:08.240 --> 12:16.550 The difference between this mailbox type and the regular user mailbox is that the shared mailbox is 12:16.550 --> 12:20.350 a typical disabled to active directory object. 12:20.420 --> 12:30.050 Therefore no one can use this username to log on interactively with these mailboxes are simply created 12:30.050 --> 12:33.470 by using the following command Latin parameters. 12:33.570 --> 12:38.480 New mailbox name and share parameter. 12:38.480 --> 12:42.950 This example shows you how to create this shared mailbox. 12:42.950 --> 12:50.850 The only difference between the shared mailbox and a regular mailbox is the addition of the parameter 12:50.850 --> 12:58.040 of Sherratt into the command left some words about certain active directory attributes some are in the 12:58.040 --> 13:06.350 active directory attributes that you might want to set when creating a mailbox might not be a whaleboat 13:06.360 --> 13:09.190 using the new mailbox command left. 13:09.350 --> 13:18.550 Good examples of this are a user a city state company and department attributes in order to serve these 13:18.560 --> 13:19.400 attributes. 13:19.490 --> 13:26.180 You'll need to call the set user command left after the mailbox has been created. 13:26.180 --> 13:28.300 Please take a look at this example. 13:28.430 --> 13:33.140 And of course you can always Thuram get help set user. 13:33.140 --> 13:39.480 There's detailed to view all the whaleboat parameter supported by this command left. 13:39.560 --> 13:47.140 So to set these attributes you could run the following code search to user identity Dave office. 13:47.190 --> 13:55.550 I t see to settle a state is Washington and police know that they come and let's say that user is an 13:55.550 --> 13:59.780 active directory command left and not an exchange Come on let.
