WEBVTT 00:00.450 --> 00:09.990 In addition to mailboxes groups and external contacts recipients can also include specific rooms or 00:09.990 --> 00:19.920 pieces of equipment locations such as the conference group or classroom can be given mailbox so that 00:20.220 --> 00:23.470 they can be reserved for maintenance equipment. 00:23.470 --> 00:33.210 Mailboxes can be assigned to physical location specific resources such as laptops or projectors and 00:33.210 --> 00:40.730 can then be checked out to individual users or groups by local time with the mailbox. 00:40.800 --> 00:46.280 And this lesson will take a look at how you can manage resource mailboxes. 00:46.310 --> 00:50.450 You've got the Exchange management shell or IAC. 00:50.490 --> 00:57.810 In my case when creating a resource mailbox from within the shell the syntax is similar to creating 00:57.840 --> 01:00.510 a mailbox for a regular user. 01:00.540 --> 01:07.980 For example you still use the new mailbox command led when creating a resource mailbox like in this 01:07.980 --> 01:12.040 example we can type a new mailbox name. 01:12.090 --> 01:14.610 See our A7 display name. 01:14.610 --> 01:24.390 Conference Room 7 user principle name CRM serving out mail got your term and we have to specify room 01:24.390 --> 01:25.490 parameter. 01:25.500 --> 01:32.900 There are two main differences when it comes to creating a resource mailbox as opposed to a standard 01:32.920 --> 01:34.290 user mailbox. 01:34.290 --> 01:42.150 First you need to use either the room switch parameter or the equipment switch parameter to define the 01:42.150 --> 01:46.230 type of reserves mailbox that will be created. 01:46.230 --> 01:51.690 Second you do not need to prove why two paths worked well for the user record. 01:51.870 --> 01:58.340 When used in either of those resorts mailbox which parameters to create a mailbox. 01:58.350 --> 02:06.930 Then you mailbox on that will create a disabled Active Directory user account that will be assigned 02:07.260 --> 02:09.870 or associated with a mailbox. 02:09.900 --> 02:19.260 The entire concept of room and equipment mail boxes results around the calendars used by these resources. 02:19.260 --> 02:27.750 If you want to reserve a room or a piece of equipment you book time with these resources through Outlook 02:27.750 --> 02:32.870 or Outlook Web Access for the duration that you'll need them. 02:32.970 --> 02:41.020 The requests sent to these resources need to be accepted either by a delegate or automatically using 02:41.100 --> 02:47.080 the reserves book and attendant to configure the room mailbox created. 02:47.160 --> 02:52.580 The previous example to automatically accept new Maiden requests. 02:52.620 --> 03:00.330 We can use the set calendar process and command left to set the resource booking attendant for that 03:00.340 --> 03:10.040 mailbox to alter except So you could use a foreign command set calendar process in seven 7. 03:10.170 --> 03:19.800 Thus automate processing parameter set to auto accept my reserves book an attendant is set to auto accept 03:20.160 --> 03:23.570 the request will be immediately accepted. 03:23.700 --> 03:27.840 As long as there is not a conflict with another mate. 03:28.080 --> 03:34.860 If there is a conflict an e-mail message will be returned to the requester explaining that the request 03:34.860 --> 03:38.130 was declined due to shadow and conflict. 03:38.130 --> 03:43.570 You can allow conflicts by Add in the allowed conflict which parameter. 03:43.740 --> 03:47.580 So you could add this parameter to the previous command. 03:47.610 --> 03:57.030 My version was resource mailboxes with automate process and set auto except you'd get an automated email 03:57.030 --> 04:01.070 response from the resource after boken time. 04:01.080 --> 04:08.830 This mail message will explain whether the request was accepted or declined depending on your settings. 04:08.880 --> 04:15.640 You can add additional text to the response message that the militant organizer will receive you using 04:15.660 --> 04:17.320 the following syntax. 04:17.390 --> 04:18.470 Set calendar. 04:18.470 --> 04:22.650 Process an identity C-R 7 for example. 04:22.650 --> 04:31.840 Add additional response set to True and additional response parameter with the following command line. 04:32.010 --> 04:39.840 For assistance contact support please know that you have to type this command in single quotes. 04:39.840 --> 04:47.880 So this example uses a set calendar process command let to customize the response messages sent from 04:47.880 --> 04:50.210 the source 7 run mailbox. 04:50.220 --> 04:58.380 You can see here that we've added a message that tells the user the helpdesk number to call if assistance 04:58.380 --> 04:59.610 is required. 05:00.000 --> 05:08.130 Mind that you can only add additional response text when the automate process and property is set to 05:08.220 --> 05:15.990 auto accept if you do not want to automate the calendar process and for a response mailbox then you'll 05:15.990 --> 05:22.440 need to add delegates that can accept or deny medals for their resource. 05:22.470 --> 05:28.260 Again we can turn to the set calendar process and come and last to accomplish this. 05:28.260 --> 05:37.110 You could type the foreign command set calendar process with identity broker to resource delegates and 05:37.110 --> 05:44.680 specifies the males of the delegates and automate process and properties set to known. 05:44.760 --> 05:52.920 And this example we've added two delegates to the resource mailbox and have turned off automated process. 05:53.070 --> 06:01.290 So when a request comes into the sea our server mailbox Bow's delegate WAHM and delegate to will be 06:01.290 --> 06:10.170 notified that it is there and can accept or deny the request on behalf of the resource mailbox when 06:10.170 --> 06:13.470 it comes to working with resource mailboxes. 06:13.470 --> 06:22.790 Another useful feature is the ability to assign custom resource properties to rooms and equipment resources. 06:22.800 --> 06:31.650 For example you might have a total of five 10 or 15 conference rooms but maybe only four of those have 06:31.670 --> 06:32.930 wide boards. 06:33.000 --> 06:40.620 It might be useful for your users to know this information when booking a resource for a and when they 06:40.830 --> 06:47.700 will be conducting a training session using this shell we can add custom resource properties to the 06:47.700 --> 06:52.290 Exchange organization by modifying the resource schema. 06:52.410 --> 06:59.910 Once this custom resource properties have been added they can then be assigned to specific resource 06:59.910 --> 07:01.050 mailboxes. 07:01.050 --> 07:08.790 You can use the following code to add a wide board resource property to the exchange organizations resource 07:08.790 --> 07:09.620 schema. 07:09.750 --> 07:17.790 You could type search resource config resource properties schema or room slash whiteboard in single 07:17.790 --> 07:18.690 quotes. 07:18.690 --> 07:25.950 Now that the white board resource properties are whaleboat within the exchange organization we can add 07:26.160 --> 07:36.240 this to our conference room 7 mailbox using the following command set mailbox identities of seven resource 07:36.460 --> 07:49.260 them wide board one user success select rooms and add rooms dialog box in Outlook 2010 or Outlook 2013 07:49.260 --> 07:57.270 or Outlook 2016 they'll see that conference room Thurmon has a wide board available and now some Virts 07:57.270 --> 08:03.900 about converting mail boxes if you've moved from an old version you might have a number of mailboxes 08:04.170 --> 08:07.860 that were being used as a resource mailbox. 08:08.040 --> 08:15.180 Once these mailboxes have been moved over they will be identified as shared mailboxes. 08:15.210 --> 08:23.550 You can convert them to other types using the search mailbox command left so that they'll have all the 08:23.550 --> 08:28.830 properties of a resource mailbox you could perform the following command. 08:28.830 --> 08:31.050 Get my old box gone. 08:31.200 --> 08:36.370 Asterisk for all the mailboxes beginning with scorn. 08:36.510 --> 08:40.810 Let earth and pipe it to said mail box. 08:40.900 --> 08:48.020 Restart parameter which is a room you can run the search mailbox command letter against each mailbox 08:48.300 --> 08:52.540 one at a time and convert them to run mailboxes. 08:52.550 --> 09:00.060 You're using the type parameter or if you use a common name and convention you may be able to do them 09:00.420 --> 09:10.140 in ball by retrieving a list of mailboxes using a wildcard and piping them to insert mailbox as shown 09:10.410 --> 09:11.610 in this example.
